Variants

Milltons are totem pole-like enemies that appear in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. Their name appears to be a derivation of "millstone". They are found on Offandon Island, and will spit rocks at Mario and Luigi if they are near, but they cannot move around. Milltons are brownish gold in color and have permanent toothy frowns, but their eyes can change expression. The segments have red and green symbols, both on opposite sides. The amount of segments Milltons have range from three to five. Milltons rarely drop Gamble Hammers upon defeat.

Later on in the game, Milltons become infected with Glohm, becoming Glohm Milltons.

Battle

It has been requested that this article be rewritten. Reason: Does counterattacking the Mushrooms heal the Millton? May someone confirm this?

When it is the Millton's turn, it will spin all of its segments and stop them one by one. The colored symbols determine who will be attacked - red for Mario and green for Luigi. Milltons can have three, four or five segments. Due to Milltons having spikes, Mario and Luigi will take damage if they jump on them. Milltons have three attacks, all determined by how the segments line up:

  • If the segments do not all line up, the Millton may send each of them at the Bros. one by one before getting them back. The segments get sent out starting from the bottom and moving upward. Mario and Luigi must jump to avoid the segments.
  • If the segments do not all match the same colored symbol, the Millton might spit rocks at the brothers one by one. The targeted character is determined by the segments, starting with the top one and going down. Mario and Luigi must use their hammers to defend themselves from the rocks. Any rocks counterattacked will be sent back at the Millton, damaging it. If the Millton is defeated this way, the attack will end prematurely.
  • If all the colored symbols line up, a giant prize ball will hang above the targeted character. After a few seconds, it will open and release either a giant spike ball or several Mushrooms. The Bros. must use their hammers to defend. If the spike ball is struck, it will be launched to the attacking Millton for a counterattack.
