Melon Slices are common items which appear in Donkey Kong 64.

Summary[]

The purpose of the Melon Slices is that collecting one restores a bit of HP for the Kongs. Four Melon Slices is needed to fill up a full watermelon that represents full health. The most common way to get Melon Slices is to defeat enemies. Defeating common enemies such as Zingers will result in a single Melon Slice. Defeating tougher enemies such as Koshas and Krobots results in two Melon Slices. However, defeating enemies such as Klumps and Purple Klaptraps doesn't result in Melon Slices but oranges instead.

There are also objects called Melon Crates that wield four Melon Slices. However, they are much more rarer and only a few can be found in the entire game.

Trivia[]

  • There is an easier way to restore health. The player simply needs to head inside a Tag Barrel and the Kong's melons is fully restored.
