Sassy Squatch is an arctic yeti-like monster and the fourth boss of DK: King of Swing. It is fought at the end of Ice World during the boss level, Sassy Squatch's Lair. Its name is a pun on Sasquatch, a legendary North American monster also known as Bigfoot. Sassy Squatch is only seen by the upper half of its body and its arms.
Overview
Sassy Squatch is completely covered in an armor of ice, making it impenetrable to Donkey Kong's attacks. To attack Sassy Squatch, Donkey Kong must throw a bomb into its mouth, which it repeatedly opens then closes. Donkey Kong must avoid contact with Sassy Squatch, else he loses a heart and freezes in ice for one second. If Sassy Squatch opens and closes its mouth three times, it briefly moves its torso up at Donkey Kong. Every time Sassy Squatch is hit, it spits out spiked ice crystals, which turn into pegs for Donkey Kong to move on to the next area. Sassy Squatch follows behind Donkey Kong as he moves up. For each hit that Sassy Squatch takes, it moves around faster.
Sassy Squatch is defeated after taking five hits, and Donkey Kong is rewarded with its golden medal.
