'''Krackas''' are a variant of [[Knocka]]s wearing a [[TNT Barrel]] in the [[Game Boy Advance]] port of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' They are the on-land counterpart to the rope-clinging [[Klasp]]s, and are the game's equivalent of [[Kaboom]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. Krackas only appear in the [[Pacifica]] level, [[Stormy Seas]], which itself only appears in the Game Boy Advance version.

Krackas have the same attack pattern as regular Knockas; they chase after [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], trying to bash into them. Unlike regular Knockas, Krackas explode upon contact with a [[Kong]], causing them to be hurt, rather than knocking them back. If the Kongs jump on a Kracka, it temporarily retreats into its TNT Barrel. After a few seconds, it re-emerges from its TNT Barrel and continues chasing the Kongs. When the Kracka is retreated in its TNT Barrel, the Kongs can pick up Kracka and throw it. In doing so, the Kracka continues to roll until it hits an enemy or a wall, giving it more or less the same use as a TNT Barrel.

Once a Kracka has retreated in its TNT Barrel, the Kongs can pick the Kracka up and throw it. In doing so, the Kracka continues to roll until it hits an enemy or a wall. This gives it more range than a normal TNT Barrel, which explodes upon hitting the ground.


An [[list of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! pre-release and unused content|unused sprite]] for Kracka appears in the original version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Krackas were not named in the game itself or its supplementary material. Instead, it originates from an unused text string in the end credits, near [[Knocka]]'s name.
