Template:Species-infobox Tiki Dooms[1] are enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. They are large members of the Tiki Tak Tribe and appear to be a larger variant of Tiki Goons.

Appearance

Tiki Dooms are wooden and shaped like a bongo. They have a large head with a cloth on top, a square nose, black eyeballs with glowing red pupils, and wear a yellow-striped red skirt. Tiki Dooms have four horns, two on each side of their head, and three red feathers are attached to each of the two lower horns. Tiki Dooms have red facial markings that resemble a downward-pointing arrow, and they also wear a yellow-striped red skirt.

Description

Tiki Dooms appear in many areas, especially the Jungle and Forest worlds. They are also common in the Golden Temple level. Like many other enemies, Tiki Dooms simply walk from side to side. Tiki Dooms move around slowly, possibly due to their large size. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong can defeat a Tiki Doom by either jumping on it three times, rolling into it, throwing a barrel at it, or by ramming into it with Rambi. The Kongs obtain a Banana Coin by defeating a Tiki Doom. When Donkey Kong first jumps on a Tiki Doom, its facial expression changes, and its eyes appear to be drowsy.
