Resembling cones, the Spikebonkers have an orange top cap with a black cylinder section below. Placed below their orange cap on their black underside are also two glaring eyes. On their bottom, they have a grey drill as well. They also carry an engine pack on their back and have a mace ball orbiting their lower section.
In Sonic & Knuckles and the lock-on game Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Spikebonkers appear only in both Acts of Death Egg Zone. In gameplay, they hover slowly from side-to-side with their mace orbiting their lower body. When the player approaches, the Spikebonkers attack by sending their mace flying towards them. However, the mace has a limited range and will return to the Spikebonker like a boomerang. The Spikebonkers will repeat this pattern until they are destroyed or the player gets far enough away. Spikebonkers are slow, and are thus easily destroyed with a Spin Jump and other related attacks. However, the player must be aware of the mace orbiting them, and the Spikebonker must not be facing them.
