Kremkroc Industries, Inc., formatted as Kremkroc Industries in the Game Boy Color version, Kremkroc Industries Inc. in the Game Boy Advance version, and also known as Kremkrock Industry Inc.,[1] is a location in Donkey Kong Country. Located at the top-left of Donkey Kong Island, Kremkroc Industries, Inc. is the fifth world of the game and an industrial area filled with subterranean areas and factories run by the Kremlings. The factories generate a lot of pollution, causing the area to be murky. The pollution even carries over into a large pond at the bottom of the world. According to the Nintendo Power guide, Kremkroc Industries, Inc. used to be a lush environment before Kremlings built the factories.[2] The world's boss is Dumb Drum, who is a large black drum. The Factory world from Donkey Kong Country Returns is thematically similar and contains arrangements of its music; it has been suggested to be the same location.[3]
The original render for Donkey Kong Island places the factory behind Vine Valley instead of on the Donkey Kong head's brow, suggesting it and Gorilla Glacier swapped world placement during the game's development.
In the Donkey Kong Country TV show, the place appears as King K. Rool's lair which the Mines are connected to.
Levels
Kremkroc Industries, Inc. has two factory levels, two walkway levels (one of them is a Mine Cart stage), a cave level, and an underwater level.
| Image | Name | Description
|
|---|---|---|
 |
Oil Drum Alley | The first level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Oil Drum Alley takes place in a factory. Oil Barrels are main obstacle that the Kongs have to avoid along the way. |
 |
Trick Track Trek | The second level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Trick Track Trek involves the Kongs riding an elevator platform throughout the level, avoiding Neckys in the first half and Gnawties and Klumps falling at them during the second half. |
 |
Elevator Anticsa | The third level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Elevator Antics first begins as an ordinary cave level, with Slippas and Zingers to avoid, and rising and falling elevators do not appear until the second half. |
 |
Poison Ponda | The fourth level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Poison Pond takes place in a polluted, green pond. Several Mincers appear throughout the level, often moving in the Kong's path. Every water enemy appears in the level except Chomps. |
 |
Mine Cart Madnessb | The fifth level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Mine Cart Madness is the only other Mine Cart level aside from Mine Cart Carnage. However, the Kongs now have to jump out of the Mine Cart to avoid dangerous obstacles, grab items, or to jump on enemies. |
 |
Blackout Basementb | The sixth level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc., Blackout Basement takes place in a factory with electrical problems. As a result, the lights flicker on and off repeatedly, and while the lights are off, the level goes completely black, hiding everything except the Kongs. |
