Krow attacks by grabbing eggs out of his nest and dropping them.

Once the egg stops, Krow will charge at the Kongs. They can damage him by picking up the eggs and hitting him with them. After taking two hits, Krow will slam into the mast, causing eggs to fly out of the nest one by one. While most of the eggs simply fall offscreen, some of them will land on the sail, allowing the Kongs to pick them up and attack Krow again. The eggs will shatter if not picked up quickly. After four hits, Krow goes down, rewarding the Kongs with a [[Kremkoin]].
