Appearances

Donkey Kong 64

Kabooms are rather rare enemies in this game only appearing in two levels: Angry Aztec and Gloomy Galleon. When a Kong gets near, a Kaboom will emerge and attempt to ram into the Kong blowing both itself and the Kong up in the process. Due to being inside a fragile TNT Barrels, even shooting them from a distance will cause the Kaboom to blow up. This makes them easier to take out than their relatives, the Klobbers.
