| '''Kritters''' are a type of [[kremling]] found in almost all games in the Donkey Kong series. Kritters are the most common of kremlings and are the foot soldiers of the [[Kremling Krew]] (similar to [[Koopa Troopa]]s). | | '''Kritters''' are anthropomorphic crocodiles who are the grunts of the organization known as the [[DKWiki:Kremling Krew|Kremling Krew]]. |
|
| |
|
| Kritters first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' where, along with [[Gnawty]]s and [[Zinger]]s they were the most common enemies. Regular green Kritters (oddly recolored purple in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of the game) would attack by simply walking into the kongs, whereas other colors can jump at the kongs. | | Though Kritters are mostly confined to the [[DKWiki:Donkey Kong Universe|Donkey Kong Universe]] they have recently begun to stray into the [[Marioverse]]. |
|
| |
|
| Kritters also appeared in ''Donkey Kong Country's'' pseudo-sequel for the [[GameBoy]], ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''. In this game all Kritters were the same color due too the Gameboys disadvantage of only supporting the colors black and white.
| | In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' several Kritters act as the audience in [[Donkey Kong]]'s court. Aside from simply watching tennis games Kritters do nothing else. |
|
| |
|
| In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', Kritters were replaced with [[Klomp]]s, kremlings that wear tattered red and white shorts and have a peg leg. Also another kremling called [[Kaboing]], whom had ''two'' peg legs replaced ''Donkey Kong Country's'' [[jump]]ing Kritters. It has been surmised by some that Kaboings and Klomps are Kritters in pirate clothing, which is a safe assumption as Kritters have a large resemblance too these two enemies. | | In ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' the role of Kritters is expanded. In this game Kritters act as the goalies of every team, they also trade in their traditional skull-and-crossbones leather jackets for sports jerseys and a large pair of gloves. They [[Super Team]] also has a robotic Kritter, aptly named [[Robo-Kritter]] as their goalie. |
|
| |
|
| In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 3]]'' Kritters are once again replaced, this time by muscular kremlings called [[Kobble]]s who were surprisingly rare in these two games. Jumping Kritters are also replaced with enemies called [[Rekoil]]s, who were orange and bounced on their tails.
| | Kritters will be appearing in ''Super Mario Strikers'' sequel, ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'' as goalies once again. |
| | |
| In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' Kritters appear as enemies in [[Funky Kong]]'s mini-games. Here the kongs will have to avoid attacking Kritters while doing a task (such as moving explosive mines), thought sometimes the kongs will have to race and/or battle Kritters.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' a single Kritter named [[Krunch]] appears. At first Krunch is sent to [[Timber Island]] to investigate why [[Diddy Kong]] went there and too figure if he and his friends are plotting some sort of anti-[[kremling]] campaign, but eventually Krunch ends up aiding Diddy and his pals in their adventure to defeat the evil [[Wizpig]]. Interestingly in ''Donkey Kong 64'' all Kritters encountered wear the exact same skull-and-crossbones jacket as Krunch.

| |
| As mentioned above Kritters appear in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' as semi-common enemies. In this game all Kritters wear leather jackets with a skull-and-crossbones emblam on it. Here Kritters attack the kongs by punching and biting also several unamed variants of Kritters such as, a wind-up robot Kritter, a Kritter in a [[mushroom]] costume and Kritter using a bed-sheet too disguise itself as ghost, appear in this game.
| |
| | |
| Kritters (simply called kremlings here) also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'', here they are more muscular, wear spiked wrist bands and tattered brown pants. Kritters/Kremlings here can swing from pegs like [[Donkey Kong]] and will sometimes attack by throwing things such as rocks and bombs. Kritters/Kremlings are also playable in the games Jungle Jam Mode after unlocking six gold medal in said mode.
| |
| | |
| Kritters have recently begun to appear in the [[Mario]] spin-off sports games; in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' they appear in Donkey Kong's Court. In ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' they are the games goalies, the game also has a [[Robo-Kritter|robotic Kritter]] as the goalie of the [[Super Team]].
| |
| | |
| Kritters are set too appear in ''Super Mario Strikers'' sequel, ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'', where once again they will be goalies. A Kritter will also appear as a playable character in ''[[DK Bongo Blast]]'', having a similar appearance to the ones featured in ''DK: King of Swing''.
| |
| | |
| In the [[Donkey Kong Country (show)|Donkey Kong animated series]] Kritters (voiced by Lawrence Bayne) occasionally appeared, here they had the same appearance as the ones in the Donkey Kong Country game but, with shorter tails. [[Green Kroc]], a minion of [[Kaptain Skurvy]] was also a Kritter but, was oddly greyish in color (similar to the color of [[Kaboing]]s).
