'''Kludge''' is a racer appearing exclusively in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]''. He is a large, blue, muscular [[Kremling]] and a member of the [[Kremling Krew]].  Kludge bears a resemblance to [[Krusha]]s, [[Kruncha]]s and [[Krumple]]s, although his relationship to any of these species is unknown.  In the game, Kludge is the rival of [[Funky Kong]]. He has an "X" across his stomach, chains around his wrists, red eyes, and yellow shorts with a skull belt. He is extremely powerful, but lacking in all other departments. He is unlocked if the Diamond Cup is beaten with a Kremling.

'''Kludge''' is a playable racer in ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]''. He is a large, blue, and muscular [[Kremling]] with an "X" across his stomach, three white stripes on both arms, chains around his wrists, red eyes, and yellow shorts with a skull belt.

Kludge is an unlockable character, and the player can unlock him by completing the [[Diamond Cup]] as a Kremling. Kludge has low boost and agility, which is compensated for his top speed.
