Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze: Difference between revisions

The story begins at [[DK's Tree House|Donkey Kong's hut]], where the Kongs are celebrating his birthday. One of the balloons flies out the Kong house and over the sea, where [[Snowmad]] ships are stationed. Far away from the island, a [[Pointy Tucks]] watches over them, locating the Kong house and relaying info to [[Lord Fredrik|their leader]], shrouded in a dark silhouette. Upon the leader nodding their approval, the Pointy Tucks bring him a [[Horn of Winter|horn]] which he blows, creating a large amount of wind, as well as an [[ice dragon]].

The plucking function is used transport objects, such as [[barrel]]s, [[DK Barrel]]s, and [[Watermelon Fuse Bomb]]s, the most common in the game. Some can be found directly on the ground and can be picked up, but other are located under handles. The player can also haul enemies, specifically those that are relatively small and wear orange helmets, like [[Tuff Fluff]]s and [[Tuff Tucks]]. Portable items and enemies are sometimes necessary to destroy hinderances, [[Burlap Hanging Sack|bags with precious content]], and tough foes.

|The final boss, titled the king of all Snowmads. He is fought on a basalt field surrounded by lava. Lord Fredrik uses his [[Horn of Winter|blowhorn]] to summon [[ice dragon]]s and icy balls, some of them hosting [[Tuff Tucks]] and [[Tuff Fluff]]s that can be thrown back at the boss. Likewise, Lord Fredrik faces the Kongs directly by charging and attempting to ram his viking horns into the protagonists; while running, his back is exposed to stomp attacks, needed to damage the boss. He will also pound the ground and temporarily sink patches of basalt in the lava.

|Bare Tucks that bounce on springy surfaces. They can be defeated with a stomp.

|Fluffs are hare Snowmads, pertaining to the most generic soldiers along with Tucks. They constantly leap from side to side. Fluffs can be defeated with any attack technique.
