History

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

Krackas are an unused enemy of the original Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Nine years later though, Krackas reappear in the Game Boy Advance version of the game and is exclusively found in the Pacifica level, Stormy Seas. When jumped on, it becomes an ordinary TNT Barrel. It can be defeated by being heaved at something hard, including the floor.

Kracka is based on the TNT versions of Klobbers from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Kracka runs at Dixie and Kiddy when the two are in sight. If contact is made, it explodes, injuring one of the monkeys. However, if jumped on, it curls up into a regular TNT Barrel.
