'''Kreeping Klasps''' is the thirteenth [[level]] of the popular [[Super Nintendo]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. It is also the third area of [[Cotton-Top Cove]].
'''Kreeping Klasps''' is the thirteenth [[level]] of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and the third level of [[Cotton Top Cove]]. In this boardwalk level, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] must reach the end by climbing across a series of horizontal [[rope]]s and walking across some boardwalks. At the start, there is a crack in the boardwalk that breaks if Dixie performs [[team up]] and throws Kiddy onto it. They can collect a [[bear coin]] within the gap. Kiddy can throw Dixie above the level entrance to obtain a [[Red Balloon]]. As the level's name suggests, [[Klasp]]s are the main enemy, and they climb across the ropes throughout the level. If the [[Kong]]s touch a Klasp, it explodes, and the player loses the lead Kong. A [[Nibbla]] follows the [[Kong]]s in the river below, so the Kongs cannot swim under the Klasps.

When the level begins, the Kongs make their way across several boardwalks and soon come up to the first tightrope. After climbing across this rope, they hop over a small gap and grab onto another tightrope. On this long tightrope, they have to avoid a long Klasp, and then jump to another rope above the dangerous water. After moving across this short rope, they make it to a third tightrope. At the end of this rope, they make their way back onto some boardwalks and have to cling onto some more tightropes. Jumping to the rope above them from there, the heroes are up to the challenge of climbing across a Klasp infested tightrope. Moving along the whole rope, they have to avoid several Klasps, and then to a much smaller separate rope. Letting go of this rope throws the Kongs into the [[Star Barrel]].


During this stilt level, the [[Kong]]s will have to make their way over a long wharf and cross large gaps of water. Unfortunately, a [[Nibbla]] will be swimming throughout the large river, and can attack the monkeys at the moment they fall into the water. So, the heroes will need to use long tightropes to cross these area of water. However, even above water, the area can be dangerous. As the monkeys climb along the many tightropes around the level, they will meet the explosive enemies, [[Klasp]]s, who will move along the ropes with them. One touch of these foes, and the Kongs will be damaged. Other enemies in this stilt level include [[Re-Koil]]s, [[Kobble]]s and [[Buzz (species)|Buzzes]], whom the heroes will also have to watch out for.
About halfway into the level, the group head onto another tightrope over the deadly water. Jumping over another Klasp, they soon get onto another long rope. Hopping onto another rope above it, they enter an area with three nearby Klasps. Avoiding each one, they make it back on the boardwalks. On this safe pathway, they walk down a slanted boardwalk and hop to a small tightrope with [[KONG Letters|the letter N]] on it. After this, the two monkeys need to bounce on a Re-Koil to make it to another tightrope. Once they hop off of the first rope, they find the letter G. Farther on, they hop to a few more ropes, avoiding some Klasps, to make it to a very small tightrope. Jumping off of this rope takes the Kongs to three Re-Koils, all occupying their own platform. After bouncing off of each one and grabbing onto the next tightrope, [[Kiddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] have to avoid a Klasp and hop to another rope. On this rope, they are greeted by a second Klasp. Dodging the foe, they soon make it onto more boardwalks. Walking a little farther, the group eventually find a rather small flagpole. If they grab onto the end of the pole, the flag rises and the level ends.

*Shortly after the letter K, the heroes will be on a tightrope where they will find two Buzzes quickly moving above them. Before being hit by the wasp-like foes, they should jump to the small rope above them and then hop into the [[Bonus Barrel]] above that. It will lead them into a [[Bonus Level]], where they will need to jump back and fourth between two tightrope to grab fifteen [[Green Banana]]s.

This barrel will blast them into a Bonus Barrel, taking them to another Bonus Level. There, they will have to climb across a long tightrope, avoiding a few Klasps. At the end of the stage, they will find the Bonus Coin on a small boardwalk.

Kreeping Klasps has two Bonus Levels, listed by type:
*'''''Grab 15 Bananas!''''': From the third horizontal rope after the letter K, there are two green Buzzes that circle around a very short horizontal rope above. The first [[Bonus Barrel]] is above the short rope, and the Kongs must avoid the Buzzes to enter it. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs have 25 seconds to collect 15 [[green banana]]s by jumping between two parallel horizontal ropes suspended over the water. The Kongs must avoid falling into the water or else Nibbla bites them. After the Kongs collect every green banana, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]] appears on the boardwalk to the right.
*'''''Find the Coin!''''': After the Star Barrel, the Kongs must climb across a few more horizontal ropes. They must go to the parallel pair of ropes, just before the next boardwalk. The Kongs must avoid the three Klasps and drop below from the center of the lower one to land into a hidden Auto-Fire Barrel that blasts them to a Bonus Barrel under the boardwalk. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs have 15 seconds to cross a long rope and collect the Bonus Coin. The Kongs must avoid four Klasps on the long rope and a Nibbla in the river below to reach a small boardwalk on the right with the Bonus Coin.

*At the end of the level, the heroes will see a [[Koin]] with the [[DK Coin]]. His shield will protect him from most attacks, so the heroes will need to defeat him with a [[Steel Barrel|steel barrel]], located right past the flagpole. With the barrel, the Kons should stand on the Koin and throw the keg at a wall. While the [[Kremling]] is distracted, the steel keg will bounce back and hit him in the side. This will defeat the foe and give the monkeys his DK Coin.

Kreeping Klasps is the thirteenth level of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and the third level of Cotton Top Cove. In this boardwalk level, Dixie and Kiddy must reach the end by climbing across a series of horizontal ropes and walking across some boardwalks. At the start, there is a crack in the boardwalk that breaks if Dixie performs team up and throws Kiddy onto it. They can collect a bear coin within the gap. Kiddy can throw Dixie above the level entrance to obtain a Red Balloon. As the level's name suggests, Klasps are the main enemy, and they climb across the ropes throughout the level. If the Kongs touch a Klasp, it explodes, and the player loses the lead Kong. A Nibbla follows the Kongs in the river below, so the Kongs cannot swim under the Klasps.

When the level begins, the Kongs make their way across several boardwalks and soon come up to the first tightrope. After climbing across this rope, they hop over a small gap and grab onto another tightrope. On this long tightrope, they have to avoid a long Klasp, and then jump to another rope above the dangerous water. After moving across this short rope, they make it to a third tightrope. At the end of this rope, they make their way back onto some boardwalks and have to cling onto some more tightropes. Jumping to the rope above them from there, the heroes are up to the challenge of climbing across a Klasp infested tightrope. Moving along the whole rope, they have to avoid several Klasps, and then to a much smaller separate rope. Letting go of this rope throws the Kongs into the Star Barrel.
