Troff is a large pinkpig encountered inDonkey Kong 64. TheKongs encounter him and his partnerScoff after entering aportal that leads tothe area where the door to each level's boss resides. The Kongs must feedScoff a certain number ofbananas so he can lift Troff up to the key to open the boss door. After the Kongs defeatKing Krusha K. Rool, both Scoff and Troff retreat toDK's Tree House, where they party with the Kongs and their friends.

Profiles[edit]

• Instruction booklet: "Troff’s a pig, Scoff’s a hippo, and both are big, slow and useless. They sit in their nice, cozy room and wait to be fed enough bananas to satisfy their alarming appetites. Once fed, they’re supposed to help you. But a novice player like you won’t be able to collect enough food, so I’d be wasting my precious breath if I told you what they did."^[1]
• Player's Guide: "Troff the pig and Scoff the hippo guard the doors that lead to the bosses who hold the eight keys toK. Lumsy’s cage. Unfortunately, the doors are locked and Troff can’t reach the keys. Help him by feeding bananas to Scoff until he counterbalances Troff. You’ll have to feed Scoff more bananas as you progress, and you can combine all the bananas collected by all the Kongs to reach the total."^[2]

Troff without nipples and piercings

• Troff and Scoff's appearance in-game bears nipples with piercings; though their earlier artwork reflected this (including in the instruction booklet), the pierced nipples were subsequently removed in later promotional material.
