During the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', Kobbles can be easily defeated by any type of attack, and although they look somewhat strongly built, they are not a real threat. Despite being the generic soldier-type, Kobbles are very uncommon in the game, as they only appear in the three Stilt Village levels.
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', despite being one of the weakest enemies, Kobbles only appear in three boardwalk levels, [[Lakeside Limbo]], [[Tidal Trouble]], and [[Kreeping Klasps]]. Like most enemies, Kobbles walk back and forth in a pattern, and [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] can defeat them by using any attack.

In this game, Kobbles behave identically to the way they did in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', although in this game they are a far more common enemy, and due to limitations are black and white and made a slight drone noise when defeated instead of the regular Kremling cry of defeat.

History

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!

In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, despite being one of the weakest enemies, Kobbles only appear in three boardwalk levels, Lakeside Limbo, Tidal Trouble, and Kreeping Klasps. Like most enemies, Kobbles walk back and forth in a pattern, and Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong can defeat them by using any attack.

In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a photograph of Kobble is categorized under the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class. The photograph shows a Kobble in a mill area even though they do not appear in any mill levels.

In the Game Boy Advance remake, Kobbles make a higher-pitched voice when defeated, which Kritters and Klomps also make when defeated in the respective two previous Game Boy Advance remakes. The only Kobble of Tidal Trouble does not appear in the Game Boy Advance remake, reducing their presence even more than in the original.

Donkey Kong Land III

In Donkey Kong Land III, Kobbles act the same as in the previous game. Kobbles appear in many more levels, a total of 18, and in more settings than boardwalks on a lake:
