The '''Tiki Tak Tribe''' is an organization of demonic creatures known as '''Tikis''' led by [[Tiki Tong]], who appear as the main antagonists in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and its 3DS port ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. Similar to the [[Kremling Krew]] from previous ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' installments, there are higher and lower-ranked members of the Tiki Tak Tribe. The higher-rank members are capable of hypnotizing other characters, such as other animals and a boss in each world. The lower-rank members make up the recurring enemies throughout the levels. The Tiki Tak Tribe has a wooden mask for their emblem, as shown on the [[Snippys]]' ship's sails, flags and bicorne and an icon in the image gallery.

Both the higher and lower-rank tikis resemble a musical instrument; all of the lower-ranked ones resemble a drum. The particular instrument that a higher ranked tiki resembles is played in the background music of the associated boss fight.

In the opening cutscene of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'', when the [[Tiki Tong Tower]] emerges out from the volcano of [[Donkey Kong Island]], the forces of the Tiki Tak Tribe are released from the rocks blasted out of it. Moments later, the seven high-ranked tikis hypnotize the animal inhabitants into stealing every [[banana]] in sight, even from the [[banana hoard]]. Kalimba, one of the tribe's commanders, encounters [[Donkey Kong]] and attempts to hypnotize him, but to no avail. Donkey Kong then punches Kalimba out of [[DK's Tree House|his house]] and begins his quest to reclaim his bananas and save the island from the new threat.
In the opening cutscene of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'', when the [[Tiki Tong Tower]] emerges out from the volcano of [[Donkey Kong Island]], the forces of the Tiki Tak Tribe are released from the rocks blasted out of it. Moments later, the seven high-ranked tikis hypnotize the animal inhabitants and control them to steal every [[banana]] in sight, even from the [[banana hoard]]. Kalimba, one of the tribe's commanders, encounters [[Donkey Kong]] and attempts to hypnotize him, but to no avail. Donkey Kong then punches Kalimba out of [[DK's Tree House|his house]] and begins his quest to reclaim his bananas and save the island from the new threat.


At the end of every world, Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong]] go up against a higher-ranked tiki, who hypnotize a boss to fight both of them. For example, in the Cave world, the tiki commander Banjo Bottom employed [[Mole Miner]]s to transport the stolen bananas and possessed their leader [[Mole Miner Max]]. In the Factory world, it is revealed that the bananas are being used to mass-produce tikis. After the [[Kong]]s defeat each boss, each tiki dizzily re-emerges from the unconscious boss. Donkey Kong can go up to the tiki and punch it repeatedly to send it flying away or simply let it escape after it recovers.

Line 24: Line 24:
After a long journey, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong reach the end of the eighth world, Volcano, where they reencounter the Tiki Tak Tribe's commanders and meet their leader, [[Tiki Tong]]. Using the last of the stolen bananas, Tiki Tong grinds them into banana juice and spews it over his lieutenants. This transforms them into a large pair of hands, which Tiki Tong uses during the final battle against the Kongs.

This transforms them into a large pair of hands, which Tiki Tong uses during the final battle against the Kongs.


The Kongs manage to defeat Tiki Tong, who explodes, launching them into space. However, Donkey Kong uses his entire strength to knock [[Moon#Donkey Kong Country Returns|the moon]] out of its orbit and land it on the Tiki Tong Tower (if the player is playing as Diddy Kong, he instead futilely tries to flee the gravitational pull of the moon only to bump his head on it, accidentally knocking it out of orbit and doing the above in the process). The moon's pressure crushes the tower and destroys it, releasing the stolen bananas and sends the moon flying back into orbit. As the bananas rain from the sky, the animals are freed from their hypnosis. With their leader and his lieutenants defeated, the Tiki Tak Tribe's reign over the island is over, marking the end of the Kongs' adventure.
