History[edit]
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]
In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, Lemguins only appear in one level, Lemguin Lunge, where they are the titular feature. Various parts of the level feature an indefinite number of Lemguins jumping out from holes in the snow and sliding on their bellies, attempting to hit Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong, similarly to how Bazzas and Swoopies spawn indefinitely. A Lemguin can be defeated either from being jumped on or by taking a hit from a Cartwheel Attack or a barrel. The Kongs cannot defeat Lemguin by rolling into it from the front, as this harms them. In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, Lemguins are classified under the "Terrorfirma Tuff Guys" enemy class. In the Game Boy Advance remake, Lemguins jump straight upward before sliding on their belly.
Donkey Kong Land III[edit]
The second and only other game appearance of Lemguins is in Donkey Kong Land III, where they only appear in two levels: Polar Pitfalls and Tundra Blunda. They behave no differently than in the previous game. In the Game Boy Color port, Lemguins have purple-colored sprites.
