Klasp
Klasps are agile Kremlings who hide within red TNT Barrels.
They hang from ropes, going back and forth. However, when they see a Kong, they change to "Attack Mode" and attempt to chase the poor ape whenever they are anywhere near their rope. They would be but a minor irritation if not for the fact that the barrels they live in explode on contact. Thus, any Kong near one of these should take all care to vacate the premises before a violent explosion ensues. They only appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III, the only difference is that in Donkey Kong Land III, they move in a fixed pattern instead of actively seeking out prey.
Klasps prominently appear in the third level of Cotton-Top Cove, Kreeping Klasps, but they are also seen in most mountain levels, such as Krevice Kreepers.
In the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3 a ground-bound version of Klasps named TNT Knockas appear. While TNT Knockas resemble Klasps and explode like them, they have the attack pattern of a Knocka.
Trivia
- According to the game's credits, Kobbles belong to the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class.
- The name "Klasp" derives from the word "clasp", which means to hold on to.
