Kritters first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' where, along with [[Gnawty]]s and [[Zinger]]s they were the most common enemies. Regular green Kritters (oddly recolored purple in the Game Boy Advance remake of the game) would attack by simply walking into the Kongs, whereas other colors can jump at the Kongs. | Kritters first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' where, along with [[Gnawty]]s and [[Zinger]]s they were the most common enemies.

In the Game Boy Advance remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', Kritters appear as enemies in [[Funky Kong]]'s mini-games. Here, the Kongs will have to avoid attacking Kritters while doing a task (such as moving explosive mines), though sometimes the Kongs will have to race and/or battle Kritters. | In the Game Boy Advance remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', Kritters appear as enemies in [[Funky Kong]]'s mini-games.

A blue Kritter attacked Diddy and Donkey Kong in a cave in the [[Club Nintendo]] comic "[[Donkey Kong Country (comic)|Donkey Kong Country]]". He gets scared by Donkey's huge shadow, projected onto the wall by [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks']] torch. Donkey ultimately defeats him by throwing a Barrel at him. Like every character in the comic, the Kritter was able to speak. | A blue Kritter attacked Diddy and Donkey Kong in a cave in the [[Club Nintendo]] comic "[[Donkey Kong Country (comic)|Donkey Kong Country]]".

In ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'', a single Kritter named [[Krunch]] appears. At first Krunch is sent to [[Timber's Island]] to investigate why [[Diddy Kong]] went there and to figure if he and his friends are plotting some sort of anti-[[Kremling]] campaign, but eventually Krunch ends up aiding Diddy and his pals in their adventure to defeat the evil [[Wizpig]]. Interestingly in ''Donkey Kong 64'' all Kritters encountered wear the exact same skull-and-crossbones jacket as Krunch. | In ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'', a single Kritter named [[Krunch]] appears.
