Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge
In Grunty's Revenge, Mr. Ripovski appears in every level except Cliff Farm. For each encounter, Banjo and Kazooie must meet a certain objective to be rewarded a Jiggy.

Mr. Ripovski is first encountered in Breegull Beach, where he has the alias of a scavenger hunter. If Banjo brings him five blue shells, he is rewarded with a Jiggy.

In Bad Magic Bayou, Mr. Ripovski hosts a fishing minigame in which Banjo must reel in 12 red fish within 45 seconds while avoiding the Snippets.

In Spiller's Harbor, Mr. Ripovski is a sideshow host. If Banjo has five silver coins, he must go to the N. Kreditz Arcade and give it to Mr. Ripovski to play the Slide o' Fear minigame, where the two race down a slide. During the minigame, Mr. Ripovski floats down while holding an umbrella.

Mr. Ripovski's antagonistic side is shown in Freezing Furnace, during a minigame where he and two other mice try to kidnap the Snowies. Mr. Ripovski wears a purple hat instead of a red one, and the other two mice wear a blue and a green hat respectively. If Banjo wins the minigame, he wins a Jiggy. In the same world, Mr. Ripovski hosts another fishing minigame, Fishy Fingers, which takes place inside of an igloo. The objective is for Banjo to catch 12 red fish, this time only identifiable from their shadow, within 40 seconds to receive another Jiggy.
