[[Image:KrushaSprites-GBA.png|frame|left|GBA '''Krusha''' sprites.]]
[[File:Krusha X.png|thumb|right|A Krusha holding an "X" letter in the [[Game Boy Color]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]].]]
Krushas first appear in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' as uncommon foes, portrayed as large, hulking, dangerous and formidable but amiable Kremlings. Krushas attack [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] and [[Diddy Kong]] by walking into them, and can only be defeated by throwing a [[barrel]] at them or by having Donkey Kong jump on them, being resistant to any other method of attack (simply laughing it off). Although it does not harm them, Donkey Kong's [[Donkey Kong#Hand Slap|Hand Slap]] attack still causes them to drop a [[banana]] every time they are hit by it, making it possible to acquire a virtually unlimited number of bananas from any single Krusha.
 
Of note, another type of Krusha, gray in color and wearing blue clothing (darker than the regular Krusha's skin), can be found in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' levels "[[Necky Nutmare]]" and "[[Platform Perils]]"; these Gray Krushas can only be defeated by throwing a barrel at them, with any other attack doing nothing to them at all. Unlike the blue variety, they do not drop bananas when Hand Slapped.
 
===''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''===
While not pointed out in the manual, [[Kruncha]] appears to be Krusha in pirate gear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.
 
===The ''Donkey Kong Country'' comic===
In the German ''[[Club Nintendo|Club Nintendo's]]'' [[Donkey Kong Country (comic)|comic adaptation of ''Donkey Kong Country'']], a Krusha makes a small cameo appearance, on the background of King K. Rool's [[Gangplank Galleon]].
 
===The ''Donkey Kong'' animated series===
{{main|Krusha (character)}}
In the [[Donkey Kong Country (show)|''Donkey Kong'' animated series]], a dimwitted Krusha named Krusha appears as a recurring villain alongside [[King K. Rool]] and [[General Klump]].
 
[[Image:KrushaGBA.jpg|thumb|right|Artwork of '''Krusha'''.]]
===''Donkey Kong Land''===
[[File:Krusha DKL.PNG|thumb|left|Sprite from ''Donkey Kong Land''.]]
Krushas reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', where they are essentially identical in all regards to their appearance in ''Donkey Kong Country''; the Gray Krushas seen in that game are absent due to the Game Boy not supporting color.
 
===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
Krushas did not appear in this game though oddly, [[Knocka|Knockas]] were referred to as Krushas.
 
===''Donkey Kong 64''===
[[Image:KrushaScreen.png|thumb|left|Krusha with his Gun in Multiplayer mode in Donkey Kong 64]]
In the Multiplayer Mode of ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', players can gain the ability to play as a Krusha after photographing fifteen [[Banana Fairy|Banana Fairies]] in any of three files in Adventure Mode; the playable Krusha is somewhat similar in terms of gameplay to [[Chunky Kong]], but has a couple different moves such as a fast sliding attack and utilizes an [[Orange Grenade Launcher]] in combat, as opposed to Chunky's [[Pineapple Launcher]]. Oddly enough, Krusha never appears in the game as an enemy, having been replaced by [[Kasplat]].

Trivia

  • The beta version of Donkey Kong Country had blue Krushas being immune to Donkey Kong's jump attacks. In the final game, this trait was given to the gray Krushas instead.
  • Future enemies similar to this one include Kruncha, Krumple, and Kasplat.
  • Kasplat is mistakenly called Krusha in the Prima guide to Donkey Kong 64.
