Shroom (enemy)

Shroom Kritters are large, blue, mushroom-wearing Kritters encountered in the game Donkey Kong 64.

Shroom Kritters are semi-commonly found in Fungi Forest during the day. Similar to the attack of Klobbers, they will wait in the ground, looking like normal mushrooms. If a Kong comes near it, most likely thinking that it is a normal mushroom, the Shroom Kritter will jump out at them and attack. When they attack, the Kritter will chase the Kong through the forest, and the monkey can take some damage if touched by it. Fortunately, Shroom Kritters are fairly weak enemies and a few attacks can defeat one. A Shroom Kritter can be defeated from afar by simply blasting it with a weapon or Orange Grenade.

At night in Fungi Forest, Shroom Kritters are replaced by the club-wielding Koshas.
