The New Zealand Story (ニュージーランドストーリー Nyū Jīrando Sutōrī?) (also known as Kiwi Kraze in its American NES version) is a 1988 arcade game by Taito. The player controls a sneaker-wearing kiwi called Tiki, and the aim of the game is to rescue several of his kiwi chick friends who have been kiwi-napped by Wally, a large blue walrus/leopard seal. The player has to navigate a scrolling maze-like level, at the end of which they release a kiwi trapped in a cage.

The game shares several elements from previous Taito games (such as collecting letters to spell out "EXTEND", from Bubble Bobble).
