Wrinkly's Save Caves, later retitled Wrinkly Refuge, are a series of supporting locations run by Wrinkly Kong in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. It is where the player saves their game progress. A single Wrinkly's Retreat appears on the main map in the remake of the former game because saving is now done from the main menu.
History[edit]
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]
Some time before the game's events, Wrinkly retired from Kong Kollege, her supporting location from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2.[1] A Wrinkly's Save Cave is stationed in the Northern Kremisphere map, between Bazaar's General Store and Funky's Rentals, and in every world. Wrinkly does a variety of activities, such as exercising, sitting on her couch, sleeping, or playing a Nintendo 64; in the case of playing the Nintendo 64, the music is similar to the Peach's Castle theme from Super Mario 64. Other than saving the game for free (unlike at Kong Kollege), Wrinkly looks after every Banana Bird,[2] until they return to the Banana Queen.
Donkey Kong Land III / Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong[edit]
Wrinkly Refuge retains a similar layout in Donkey Kong Land III and the localized Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong. Wrinkly no longer does a random activity, nor do any Banana Birds appear.
