Kobbles are basic, green Kremlings who serve as the grunts of the Kremling Krew in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. They are the successor to Kritters and Klomps from Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest respectively.

Kobbles have a light green underbelly and a lip piercing. They have a purple counterpart that appears in some snow levels, Skiddas.

History

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!

In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, despite being one of the weakest enemies, Kobbles only appear in three boardwalk levels, Lakeside Limbo, Tidal Trouble, and Kreeping Klasps. Like most enemies, Kobbles walk back and forth in a pattern, and Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong can defeat them by using any attack.

In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a photograph of Kobble is categorized under the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class. The photograph shows a Kobble in a mill area even though they do not appear in any mill levels.

In the Game Boy Advance remake, Kobbles make a higher-pitched voice when defeated, which Kritters and Klomps also make when defeated in the respective two previous Game Boy Advance remakes. The only Kobble of Tidal Trouble does not appear in the Game Boy Advance remake, reducing their presence even more than in the original.

Donkey Kong Land III

In Donkey Kong Land III, Kobbles act the same as in the previous game. Kobbles appear in many more levels, a total of 18, and in more settings than boardwalks:
