Not to be confused with Click-Clacks, blue stag beetles from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

Knik-Knaks are enemies which appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and later in Donkey Kong Land III. They are beetle-like enemies that replace both Click-Clacks and Flitters from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. The red Knik-Knaks replace Flitters, while yellow Knik-Knaks replace Click-Clacks.

History[]

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

Knik-Knaks appear in two variations of different colors:

Red Knik-Knaks are more common, can fly, and often serve the Kongs to reach a high ledge by being jumped on. Some Knik-Knaks fly around in a set path, some stay in a set position, and a few walk on the ground, before taking off to the air.

Yellow Knik-Knaks cannot fly and are only found in a few levels. When jumped on, a yellow Knik-Knak falls on it's back and can be picked up by the Kongs. Red Knik-Knaks don't possess this trait. Yellow Knik-Knaks appear more frequently in the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3, due to the addition of Pacifica.

Donkey Kong Land III[]

In Donkey Kong Land III, Knik-Knaks make a reappearance with no significant change, but they only come in the red variety.

-Knik-Knaks appear in two different colors: yellow and red.  Red Knik-Knaks are more common, they can fly, and they are mostly used to give the Kongs a way to reach a high ledge. Yellow Knik-Knaks, however, cannot fly, and play a more important role: the are the key component in defeating [[Belcha]] in Belchas's Barn. When Belcha burps out [[Barrel]]s, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy]] Kong must jump on the barrels, which reveals a yellow Knik-Knat inside. The Kongs must jump on the Knik-Knak once to get it on its back; it can now be used as a projectile. They can now pick the Knik-Knak up, and when Belcha's mouth is open, they can throw it inside.  Belcha will do a large burp, pushing him back closer to the pit at the end of the stage.
