Ask Cranky

Gameplay

Ask Cranky (also referred to as Ask Cranky Kong) was a section of the official Donkey Kong website during its time of promoting DK: King of Swing. The player would input a question, and Cranky Kong would reply with a randomly generated response.

Ask Cranky was very similar to a section on the Donkey Kong Country official website when it promoted the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country, since it also involved asking Cranky a question for a randomly generated response.
