Cranky's Kong Pads are objects in Donkey Kong 64. Each depicts one of the Kong's faces. The Kong depicted on the pad can use it after they learn their associated special move at Cranky's Lab. While the Kong is standing on their pad, the player can press to have that Kong perform their move from it. Cranky's Kong Pads are essential in solving some puzzles and therefore obtaining some of the Golden Bananas.
