They also wear brown soldier hats and have wind-up keys on their backs similar to those of [[Bob-omb]]s. Their name is a portmanteau of "block", which they resemble, and "lockstep", referring to their synchronized marching formation.

Blocksteppers appear in various levels, where they continually march back and forth along a set path (in autoscroll levels they instead constantly move forwards). They will always travel in groups of two or more, forming lines of several Blocksteppers each. Characters can defeat any Blocksteppers in a group by landing on them with any [[jump]], a [[Ground Pound]] or [[Synchro Ground Pound]], the claw, pounce, and claw dive from [[Cat Mario|Cat forms]], [[fireball]]s from [[Fire Mario|Fire forms]], [[boomerang]]s from [[Boomerang Mario|Boomerang forms]], the tail attack from [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki forms]], or coming into contact with one while in the [[Lucky Cat Mario|Lucky Cat]], [[Invincible Mario|Invincible]], or [[White Tanooki Mario|White Tanooki forms]] (as well as the [[White Cat Mario|White Cat form]] in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''). Defeating any Blockstepper in a group will cause the rest to scatter as they frantically run around, during which period more or all of the group can be defeated. After a few seconds, they will regain composure and angrily chase after any characters nearby in unison.
