Krumples are large, blue, and muscular members of the Kremling Krew who appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. They have a similar appearance and role to Krushas and Krunchas from the two respective previous installments. A Krumple appears on the box art of both games that it appears in.

History

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!

Krumples only appear in a few levels of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!: two are set around a waterfall and one is inside a cavern.

Like most enemies, Krumples attack Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong by simply moving into them. They can be defeated by a barrel, by Team Up, or by having Kiddy jump on them (just like how Donkey Kong can defeat blue Krushas from a jump attack in Donkey Kong Country, but not Diddy). In Tracker Barrel Trek, Ellie the Elephant can defeat Krumples by spraying water at them, while in Creepy Caverns, Krumples can be defeated by Squitter the Spider's webs.

Krumples are unfazed by Kiddy's roll (unless he performs it from above), or any direct attack from Dixie (including jumping), and will respond back by taunting the Kongs.

In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a Krumple photograph appears under the Kremling Kreeps category.

In the Game Boy Advance version, Krumples also appear in a pipeline level. In the same version, its sound effects are recycled from Krunchas in Donkey Kong Country 2's Game Boy Advance version.

Levels:

Donkey Kong Land III

In Donkey Kong Land III, Krumples act the same as in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. They appear in much more levels than the previous game.
