The Whomp King is the king of all Whomps. He appears as a boss in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. He hates those who don't show respect towards his kind. When he is confronted on top of Whomp's Fortress in Super Mario 64, he makes a short speech, then engages Mario in battle. Like most Whomps, his only attack is to fall face-first in an attempt to crush his opponent. However, this is also his weakness, because in the time it takes him to recover and stand up, the player can ground pound his back. After being Ground Pounded three times, the Whomp King will be defeated and the player will receive a Power Star.

Whomp King appeared also in Mario Party 3, in the Creepy Cavern. He was lying on the road, and to make him move out of the way, the player would need to give up an item.
