Tiki-like fireballs[1] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch ports. They are encountered in only one level—the Cliff level Precarious Plateau. They are a variant of Tiki Zings drenched in fire, and they have seven razor blades and a sinister face. While Rambi can defeat Tiki Zings, he remains vulnerable to fireballs. Like their Tiki Zing relatives, fireballs move around, trying to block Donkey Kong's path. Contact with a fireball causes the Kongs to lose a life instantly.
