In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', KAOS is first encountered by [[Dixie Kong]] and her cousin [[Kiddy Kong]] while venturing through the factory covered island [[Mekanos]]. Entering a factory titled [[KAOS Karnage]], the Kongs watch as KAOS descends downward upon them. Immediately identifying the Kongs as a threat, KAOS engages them in battle. Although he attempts to roast the Kongs with his exhaust flames, this ploy fails as the Kongs can simply weave and run underneath KAOS.

KAOS is fought twice by [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] first battle KAOS at the end of [[Mekanos]] in the boss level, [[KAOS Karnage]]. KAOS identifies the Kongs as a threat and engages them in battle. KAOS first tries to attack the Kongs with its exhaust flames. The Kongs can avoid them by running under KAOS while he is not releasing exhaust flames. After this, KAOS stops moving and send out spinning blades. The Kongs must quickly jump on the spinning blades to then jump onto KAOS's head, before a robotic arm with a punching glove extends from KAOS, knocking the Kongs off the blades.


[[File:KAOS Karnage DKC3.png|thumb|left|220px|KAOS fighting the Kongs]]
After being hit enough times, KAOS's head detaches and floats in the air. This reveals a second head below that resembles a skull wearing sunglasses. During this part, KAOS's floating head swoops down and tries to zap the Kongs with its laser. By avoiding it, the KAOS sends out its blades again, and the Kongs must jump on KAOS's skull head again. After doing this enough times, KAOS's floating head falls down and explodes, and KAOS retreats. The Kongs one of the [[Ski]]s for defeating KAOS.
Changing tactics, KAOS begins to use spinning blades in an attempt to attack the Kongs. However, this backfires as the Kongs can simply hop on top of the blades to reach and stomp on KAOS's head. They must act quickly, however, or a robotic arm with a punching glove on the end will extend from KAOS's body and knock them off.


After enough stomps, KAOS's head floats off his body, revealing a second head underneath. This head looks like a skull wearing sunglasses. Once again KAOS changes his strategy, this time his floating head swoops down and attempts to blast the Kongs with its laser vision.
Dixie and Kiddy battle KAOS again at [[Kastle KAOS]], which is at the end of [[KAOS Kore]]. KAOS descends into the area, causing the battle to start. The Kongs must throw barrels at KAOS's head to attack it. KAOS's head then rockets out of its body, revealing a third cylindrical, black head in its body. The black head attempts to attack Dixie and Kiddy with a bomb-launcher hidden inside a hole on top of its head. The Kongs must continue attacking KAOS's head with barrels. After being attacked, KAOS's skull head retreats back in his body, shutting down and falling to the ground. A crane hook descends and lifts KAOS's body into the air. A nearby curtain opens and reveals [[King K. Rool|Baron K. Roolenstein]], who was the mastermind behind KAOS all along. K. Rool says that he constructed KAOS from his wife's pots and pans. Baron K. Roolenstein starts to battle the Kongs.


After dodging the laser blasts from KAOS's flying head, his body descends and the Kongs can once again scale KAOS's rotating blades and jump on his head. After jumping on the head several more times, KAOS's flying head falls to the ground and explode. The body, realizing it has been defeated, flees, but not before dropping a [[Ski]] that the Kongs can give to [[Funky Kong|Funky]] at [[Funky's Rentals]].
When the Kongs defeat Baron K. Roolenstein, KAOS descends from the ceiling, and [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] climb out of KAOS's body. It is revealed that Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong were captured for their cerebral energy to power KAOS.


Dixie and Kiddy later re-encounter KAOS in [[Kastle KAOS]] in ''Donkey Kong Country 3''{{'}}s last area [[KAOS Kore]]. When the Kongs enter [[Kastle KAOS]], KAOS descends to engage in battle against them. The Kongs managed to bash KAOS's head, using barrels this time. After this attack KAOS's head rockets out of his body and a third, cylindrical, black head rises from KAOS's body. This new head attempts to defeat the Kongs using a bomb-launcher hidden inside a hole on top of his head.
===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', KAOS has a smaller role than in ''Donkey Kong Country''. It is the boss of [[Great Ape Lakes]] and is fought in the boss level, [[Krazy KAOS]]. It is assumed that K. Rool found an alternate power source for KAOS, as this time he is no longer powered by Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong. During battle, KAOS moves back and forth during the level. As he does this, Dixie or Kiddy must jump over him, without getting hit. Shortly after, KAOS moves to the top-middle of the screen, and then slide a blade off its right side and then its left, while ejecting a punch from a boxing glove on the other side. The Kongs must jump on KAOS's head to attack it. KAOS cannot be damaged while is has an electric current on its head. After the Kongs jump on KAOS three times, it is defeated.


Dodging this new head's barrage of explosives, the Kongs manage to once again bash KAOS's head with barrels. After this attack, KAOS's head spins then retreats back in his body, shutting down, and falls to the ground. Suddenly, a crane hook descends and lifts KAOS's body into the air. After this display, a curtain nearby opens, which reveals the Kong's old enemy, [[King K. Rool]], now under the guise of Baron K. Roolenstein. K. Rool reveals to the Kongs that he built KAOS out of his wife's pots and pans, as a puppet leader to the Kremling Krew, with him as the puppeteer.
K. Rool then engages Dixie and Kiddy in battle. After a long fight the Kongs managed to defeat K. Rool. When the crocodilian tyrant is sent flying, KAOS descends from the ceiling. Suddenly the missing [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] climb out of KAOS's body. It is revealed that K. Rool abducted these two in order to utilize their cerebral energy to power KAOS.
In the GBA version, KAOS cannot be fought in Kastle KAOS again, unlike in the SNES version; instead the Kongs immediately fight K. Rool.
===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', KAOS returns as the boss of [[Great Ape Lakes]]. He is fought in a tiny factory, and his boss level is entitled [[Krazy KAOS]]. It is assumed that K. Rool found an alternate power source for KAOS, as this time he is no longer powered by Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong. During battle, KAOS will fly back and forth through the stage. As he does this, Kiddy Kong and Dixie Kong must jump over him, without getting hit. Soon, KAOS will move to the top-middle of the screen, and the Kongs must jump on the platforms that come out of his sides to get to his head. After the Kongs jump on him a few times, the robot will fall down, and disappear for the rest of the game.
