'''Wrinkly Kong''' (also known as '''Mrs. Kong'''<ref>'''Cranky's words''': "''Sure beats a visit from Mrs. Kong! How can I help you?''" - ''Donkey Kong Country''</ref>) is a character in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] who is the wife of [[Cranky Kong]] and an ally of the [[Kong]]s. Her first appearance is in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' as an elderly ape. Starting in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', Wrinkly is deceased and appears as a ghost. In most of her appearances, Wrinkly either provides information or saves the player's game progress.

In her debut appearance, Wrinkly runs a school named the [[Kong Kollege]], where she can save [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]]'s game for two [[Banana Coin]]s in {{wp|Western world|Western}} releases and one Banana Coin in Japanese releases. Like Cranky's [[Monkey Museum]], Wrinkly provides hints that range from either no cost to a few Banana Coins. In various moments, Wrinkly alludes that the Kong Kollege is specifically a school for the [[Kremling]]s, including [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]], whom she asks the Kongs to ask if he has done his homework.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Diddy and Dixie can request homework from Wrinkly, where their assignment is to entirely fill a [[Scrapbook]] with all 40 [[photograph]]s. Wrinkly gives a [[DK Coin|Hero Coin]] to them for every page they fill. Wrinkly no longer saves the player's progress, as this is done from the world map's {{button|GBA|Start}} menu.

===Physical appearance===
Back when she was alive, Wrinkly Kong was an old ape with a similar build to her husband Cranky Kong. She is covered in brown fur, has grey hair on her head and she also wears glasses. In her debut in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', she wore a green blanket. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', she wears a white and purple gymnastics outfit that has dark gray fur armbands, and also wears white and purple sneakers and a white and purple headband. In the [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', she only wears a white coat and does not wear any shoes.

Ever since she became a ghost in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', Wrinkly still retained a similar appearance as in ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', except she is now white and translucent, has a wispy tail where her legs used to be, and wears a nightgown. In her current appearance introduced in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'', she is no longer translucent and has gray fur, though her skin is rather white. Her glasses are much smaller and are oval shaped, compared to her previous semicircular ones, and her hair is covered by a white nightcap.
