Tiki Tong is the final boss of the game Donkey Kong Country Returns and also the boss of the Volcano area. Tiki Tong is the leader of the Tiki Tak Tribe and the reason why the Tikis are running amok. He made his minions steal Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong's Banana Hoard to make more Tikis. His mission in the game is called Tiki Tong Terror.
History
Tiki Tong created his Tikis to help him take over Donkey Kong Island. He made the Tikis hypnotize the animals to help them steal the Banana Hoard, which is their life source. Tiki Tong set up a plant in the Factory where Colonel Pluck and his robot Stompybot 3000 created more Tikis. However, Tiki Tong's plans were stopped short by Donkey and Diddy. When Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong invade Tiki Tong's lair, all of the 9 boss Tikis come and throw the remaining bananas in Tiki Tong's head. He then turns the bananas into juice by spinning around and spits it on the Tikis. This action transforms his minions into hands so that he can take care of the two once and for all.
Appearance
Tiki Tong is a large, wood head. He has sharp, wooden teeth with orange and purple stripes located below them. Tiki Tong has a flat nose and two, huge, spherical, and uneven eyes. One of the eyes has the same orange and purple stripes with pointed eyelids while the other is bare with normal eyelids. His retina is black and his pupils are red. Tiki Tong has red markings around his eyes and has red leaves where his “ears” are. He wears a wooden grown with the outer ring being purple with orange triangular markings on the front. Tiki Tong has two hands with orange fingers and purple zig-zags on the backside.
Attacks
When Tiki Tong has both hands, he generally performs three attacks. His first ones are laying his hands flat in the air and quickly sweeping them across the stage. This can be avoided by simply ducking. During this attack, the palms of his hands can face up and a Heart on one of them. Even though there is the heart, the kongs should not attempt to jump on the hands on this phase, otherwise Tiki Tong will close his hands, squishing Donkey and Diddy Kong. Tiki Tong will also slam his hands on the floor. Sometimes, he quickly removes his hand, but other times he leaves it there. The boss can also move his hands to both sides of the stage. If Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are caught in the middle, he slams both his hands against them. This can be avoided by jumping over either hand before he moves them. When he only has one hand, he does the same attacks, except much faster. He can also fake out a hand slam.
When Tiki Tong loses both his hands, he attacks by slamming his head into the ground. This will reveal his weakness: the button on his head. When he is damaged once, he can swoop his head down, which can be dodged by ducking. He can also send out four Flaming Tiki Buzzes that will chase the Kongs. When he is damaged once more, he can rain down Flaming Tiki Buzzes.
Combat
Template:Spoiler During Tiki Tong’s first phase, Donkey Kong must step on the red button on the boss' hands when he slams it on the stage. After each hand has taken two damage, they will fall apart into bananas.
During the second phase, the simians must jump on the red button on top of Tiki Tong's head to cause him damage. After Tiki Tong is damaged three more times, he explodes into bananas, destroying the remaining Tikis and lifting the curse put upon the animals. Template:Endspoiler
Trivia
- If Donkey Kong dies after the encounter with Tiki Tong, regardless if he won, the "Question Mark" icon changes to a Tiki Tong head. This is probably because Donkey Kong now knows who is behind this scheme.
- This is the only boss that does not have the Tikis in the background watching the fight.
- The way Tiki Tong's head swoops down is similar to Stu.
- Tiki Tong resembles Wham Bam Rock & Wham Bam Jewel from Kirby Super Star & Kirby Super Star Ultra, both in appearance and battle-style.
- This is the only boss that does not resemble a musical instument.
