Klingers have a similar role in both ''Donkey Kong Country 2'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', and first appear in [[Mainbrace Mayhem]] of each game. Klingers repeatedly climb up a rope or chain then slide down. They usually make it harder for [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] to go across the ropes, which is mostly noticeable in [[Chain Link Chamber]] where Klingers are featured as the main enemy. In [[Krockhead Klamber (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Krockhead Klamber]], the Klingers are climbing on swamp reeds. | Klingers have a similar role in both ''Donkey Kong Country 2'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', and first appear in [[Mainbrace Mayhem]] of each game.

Like with other enemies, the player loses the lead [[Kong]] if they hit a Klinger. [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] can defeat Klingers by throwing objects at them, including [[barrel]]s, [[kannonball]]s, or [[crate]]s. This causes the affected Klingers to fall off the rope. | Like with other enemies, the player loses the lead [[Kong]] if they hit a Klinger.

Klinger makes a cameo in the Freestyle Zone of ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'' along with some other characters. Klinger's artwork sometimes displays on screen in correspondence to the player hitting the [[Nintendo GameCube#DK Bongos|DK Bongos]]. | Klinger makes a cameo in the Freestyle Zone of ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'' along with some other characters.
