If you don't need to run away from a boulder or some other object Indy Escape style, then you probably need to avoid them some other way. Usually you have to either jump over them, hide in a conveniently located spot, jump up onto a platform, or just time when you cross the path. Sometimes they can be destroyed, but timing the attacks is usually more difficult than just avoiding them.
This trope can occur in a few ways, though usually the rolling objects simply appear out of thin air. Sometimes they're Justified however, such as being dispensed by some machine, object, or even just a slot in a wall. An enemy could be throwing them at you as well. In this case, what separates it from a normal enemy is that the enemy is undefeatable or a Level Goal, so all you can do is get to them or get past them.
This trope has several variations depending on where it is encountered. Rocks can be found commonly in Death Mountain and Underground Level, though can appear in Green Hill Zone or other settings that could have rocky mountains or hills. A version involving massive snowballs can appear in Slippy-Slidey Ice World, sometimes even briefly turning the player into Human Snowball when caught. A third form is a rolling barrel, either a classic wooden keg or metal barrel, both usually most common in urban or village settings, or in Gangplank Galleon, with metal barrels being more common in modern or futuristic settings. The fourth most common form is just a big metal ball. This one is usually not tied to a particular setting. The bounciness of rolling objects can vary as well.
This trope is common in platforming games, though can appear in any genre. Despite how complex it can be at times, this trope first appeared in games dating back to the early 1980s, making it Older Than the NES. Sometimes present in Death Course.
Compare with:
Corridor Cubbyhole Run: Rolling objects are a common hazard in that kind of segment.
Guerrilla Boulders: A Sister Trope of this. Applies when boulders roll offscreen but stop until the player reaches the source.
Hyper-Destructive Bouncing Ball
Indy Escape: When a character or player needs to run away from a threat. May include a rolling object.
Rolling Attack: When it's the enemies themselves that roll.
Spike Balls of Doom: A (usually) non-rolling and spiky ball.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: A close variant happens during Link's initial approach to Death Mountain: the native Gorons start attacking him by rolling down the mountain to knock him back down the path. He has to go back to Ordon Village to get the Iron Boots from the mayor so that he weighs enough to catch the Gorons and throw them past him.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The Mo'a Keet Shrine's challenge consists of navigating a series of sloping chutes along which large stone or metal balls roll down periodically. The pathways are too narrow to dodge aside on, and too long for Link to traverse between a ball dropping into the bottomless pit at the end and its replacement being deposited at the top. Clearing the first part, which as stone balls, requires using Stasis to halt them in place when they exit the chute and running up the slope in the larger time window afforded until the Stasis breaks and the ball continues on its way. Clearing the second, with metal balls, requires using Magnesis to grab the sphere before it flattens you and depositing it somewhere flat.

The GBC version of Daikatana has an area where you have to run into cubbyholes to avoid rolling boulders. It's notable for being the sole hazard in the entire game that kills you instantly rather than deducting a small amount of HP.

Persona 5: Futaba's Palace features several boulder corridors, one of which needs to be filled by said boulders in order to create a passageway to proceed. Unlike most versions of this trope, you're not at risk of being damaged by the boulders because the protagonists will simply refuse to enter the corridor until you've disarmed the trap.

Super Mario Bros.: Rolling rocks are commonly found throughout the series.
The first boulders that appear as obstacles rather than spawned by enemies are in Super Mario 64 in the course "Hazy Maze Cave", and are prominent in the mission "Watch For Rolling Rocks".
Super Mario Galaxy: Rolling boulders act as an obstacle.
Super Mario Galaxy 2: In Slipsand Galaxy, the player needs to dodge stone rolls while sliding downhill.
Super Mario Odyssey: In Seaside Kingdom, there is a section where Mario has to climb uphill while boulders roll down from there. In Bowser Kingdom, there are cannonball dispensers that fire rolling cannonballs. Mario can use pokio capture to redirect those cannonballs.

Indiana Jones:
Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures: The snow mountain level has sections where snowballs roll downhill and Indiana has to jump over them. The burning house features rolling flaming debris that also needs to be jumped over.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: In the Sega Genesis version, in the first stage, the player has to defeat the boss and grab the Cross of Coronado. Doing so springs up a nearby trap: boulders will soon roll out from the left corner of the screen and One-Hit Kill Indy. The player has to make a quick jump to avoid being hit by the boulders.

Naturally, being inspired by Raiders of the Lost Ark and the rest of the Indiana Jones films, Tomb Raider has giant rolling boulders, forewarned by the screen vibrating (and sometimes a Scare Chord), which Lara must dodge. Boulders aren't the only rolling object of doom she must dodge though, as massive wine barrels, spiked logs, and runaway cars, among others, are also hazards that will kill her if she's hit by them.
A specific example occurs in Tomb Raider II: nearing the last section of "The Great Wall of China" (stage 1), Lara/the player is faced with two large round spinning blades rolling from one side to the other in perpetual motion.
