2. Story
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(From the manual)
"Left!" rasped a voice to his left.
"Right!" came back the immediate response from the other side.
It had seemed like a good idea at the time, but now the Klaptrap turning
the wheel wasn't so sure. His little legs were getting tired, and those
two incompetent fools didn't have a clue where they were going.
"Left!"
"Right!"
With a sudden sickening crunch of metal against rock, the King's pride
and joy came to shuddering halt, knocking all three off their feet. The
tough little Klaptrap was up first, dashing eagerly across to the broken
bridge window to see what those goons had hit.
"You two are going to be in sooo much trouble!" he barked gleefully.
But that pair weren't the only ones in trouble. Deep within the gloomy
bowels of his latest creation, a furious King K. Rool sat on his throne,
glaring down at the quaking generals of his vast Kremling army.
"Well? I'm still waiting for answer..."
His plan couldn't fail this time, or so he had thought. But like so many
times in the past, he'd underestimated just how useless his scaly
minions could be. It had taken years to build, but now his mighty island
stronghold lay immobile off the coast of its very first target--Kong
Isle. Perhaps all was not lost, though...
"Power up the Blast-o-Matic. Target is Kong Isle. Fire when ready!"
Instead of a deafening explostion, there came only a pathetic whipser.
"I'm so v-very sorry your m-majesty, but I'm afraid the Blast-o-Matic
isn't quite working yet..."
K. Rool turned to face the white-coated technician responsible for the
bad news. The King began to cry.
"It's just not fair..." he sobbed. "I really though I was going to win
this time."
Klump waddled over and put a consoling arm around his distraught leader.
"Don't get all upset now, your excellency. We'll go and capture those
nasty Kongs for you. Then we'll steal their Golden Bananas as usual so
that if any Kongs escape us, they'll be too busy looking for them to
come and ruin your magnificent plans."
As King K. Rool watched his generals leave, he wiped away his crocodile
tears and began to laugh. His little play acting had worked, and now
those Kongs would soon be history. He glared down at his bemused
technician.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Get the Blast-o-Matic working. I've got
an island to destroy!"

some innovative new moves to show off and defeat K. Rool.
Bio:
What can you say about DK that hasn't already been said? He's the only

he came up with the perfect plan, or so he thought...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Secondary Characters
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Professor Cranky Kong: The very first Donkey Kong is back and in this
game, he sells the Kongs potions which give them new moves.
Funky Kong: Instead of giving transportation, Funky now has the latest
artillery which he is willing to sell to you.
Candy Kong: Candy sells you musical instruments which will either
incapacitate your enemies or open up new areas.
Wrinkly Kong: Although dead, Wrinkly still rises from the grave to give
you hints about the levels.
K. Lumsy: He is a big, good-natured Kremling that K. Rool imprisoned for
being too nice. He is locked in a huge cage, which the keys from the
levels unlock.
Snide: Formerly an ally of the Kremlings, K. Rool threw him out because
he couldn't trust him. Now Snide harbors a grudge against the Kremlings
and is willing to help the Kongs dismantle the Blast-o-Matic. Bring the
blueprints you find to him.
Troff n' Scoff: Two big, fat animals that sit in their own room. One of
the Kongs stands on a pad and feeds one of them bananas. When they have
had enough to eat, they unlock the door behind them and allow you to
face the boss of the level.
B. Locker: He guards the entrance to each level until you show him
enough Golden Bananas to pass.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Enemies
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gnawtys: A blue beaver that charges at you. One hit usually does the
job. They come in large and small varieties.
Zingers: Yes, the annoying Zingers are back. They fly around a given
area, until they see you. When they do, they charge at you. A shot from
your weapon defeats them. Some Zingers drop grenades on you.
Kasplats: These Kremlings have blue skin and wear a biker's jacket.
Their hair is the same color as the blueprints they hold. When you get
close, they either create a damaging shockwave or hit you with a one-two
punch. They are defeated after being hit many times, and give you a
blueprint upon their defeat. They are invulnerable to weapons.
Klumps: These Kremlings are very obese and wear helmets to protect
their heads. They are invulnerable to physical attacks, but you can
knock them down. They throw grenades which are very annoying to dodge.
Throw oranges to defeat them.
Kritters: The generic Kremling. It patrols an area until it sees when
you, upon which time it charges. One hit defeats it.
Green Klaptraps: A crocodile that walks around with its jaws chomping.
Hit it once to defeat it. Upon being defeated, the Klaptrap's jaws begin
jumping around. Hit them once to destroy them.
Purple Klaptraps: Exactly the same in stature as the Green Klaptrap.
However, these are invulnerable to everything EXCEPT oranges. Once
defeated, they leave three oranges behind.
Robo-Kritters: These Kritters are wound-up and they just go. They are
made out of medal and are invulnerable to physical attacks. Defeat them
using oranges or the Primate Punch.
Robo-Zingers: These Zingers have helicopter blades instead of wings.
Defeat them using two shots from a weapon.
Mad Dominos: Walking dominos. One hit defeats them.
Mad Dice: Walking dice. One hit defeats them.

Megatoy: A whole bunch of enemies joined together. To defeat it, use hit
and run tactics. Attack it and then run away before it has a chance to
hit you with an uppercut.
Klobbers: A green Kremling inside of a barrel. When you get close, it
pops it's head out and charges you. Defeat it with an orange.
Klubbs: Little Kremlings with really, really big clubs. Only the Tremor
Move can stop them.
Kabooms: Like Klobbers, but they are inside of TNT barrels instead. If
they hit you, it hurts...a lot. Defeat it the same way you defeat a
Klobber.
Puffers: Blowfish that explode violently when you come near them. You
can defeat it with Engaurde, or just let it explode.
Shuri: Starfish that charge at you whenever you're near them.
Sword Shuri: Shuri that attack with swords instead of their fins.
Skeletons: The walking bones of Kremlings. They carry a club. One solid
hit defeats them.

to them, they pop out and attack you. One hit defeats them.
Bats: Bats that fly around in a given area. One hit defeats them.
Ghosts: Kremlings with sheets over their heads. One hit defeats them.
Flies: Flies that fly around quickly and dive occasionally. One hit
defeats them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Items/Barrels/Doorways

his cage and another once you defeat him in a race.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. The Game
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some basic tips before the walkthrough:
-Always step on Bananapads. It's better to be safe than sorry later plus
they provide invaluable shortcuts.
-Look EVERYWHERE. Bananas or banana coins are usually on top of trees or
underwater.
-Save frequently.
I have a notation on how many bananas each Kong has. There is a
parentheses, then five numbers. The first is how many bananas Donkey
Kong has, the second is how many bananas Diddy Kong has, the third is
how many bananas Lanky Kong has, the fourth is how many bananas Tiny
Kong has and the fifth is how many bananas Chunky Kong has. For instance
(5,1,3,5,2) means that Donkey has 5 bananas, Diddy has 1 banana, Tiny
has 3 bananas, Lanky has 5 bananas and Chunky has 2 bananas.
I have also listed how many fairies and crowns you should have after
every one you gain.
Now onto the game:
After watching the opening rap scene (which may or may not be helpful),
start a new game. Then you will see a cinema which will outline the
story of the game (strangly, it is a little different from the one in
the manual). After the cinema, you'll see Squawks tell Donkey Kong about
the plight of his fellow Kongs. And so, your adventure begins.
Use Donkey's room to try out your moves if you wish. Jump down from the
treehouse. From there, go to Cranky's laboratory (it's hard to miss) and
talk to him. This unlocks the training barrels. Follow the signs to the
training area and jump into the barrels. Instructions on what to do are
given once you're inside the barrel.
From there, go back to Cranky's house and obtain the potion for the
Simian Slam (Buttus bashium). From there, follow the signs to "Way Out".
You should enter a cave and the exit is blocked by a gate of bamboo. Use
the Simian Slam to smash the green switch and the gate will lower. Enter
the new tunnel opening.
--------
DK Isle:
--------
After stepping on the first five bananapads, jump in the tag barrel if
you need to replenish your health. Then go to the island that Squawks
showed you. Enter the cave, and you'll meet K. Lumsy. After talking with
him and agreeing to help him, he will jump around and make a boulder
explode, revealing the entrance to Level 1 and a Golden Banana.
Use the bananapad to go back to Kong's Isle, then go to the new
entrance. Defeat the nearby Gnawty, and then collect the Golden Banana
(1,0,0,0,0) and enter. Once inside the lobby, defeat the two Gnawtys if
necessary. Go up to B. Locker and he will disappear. You may then enter
Jungle Japes.
----------------------
Level 1: Jungle Japes
----------------------
After the cutscene with K. Rool, Jungle Japes will apear on the screen.
From the start of the level, go back and climb up the first tree. Then
swing from vine to vine, collecting bananas, until you hit the switch.
The gate will then open. Drop down and enter the cavern. Follow the path
until you exit the cavern and see Diddy Kong's location. Run to the edge
of the river and then look at the left side of the cliff. You should see
a vine going up it. Go over to it and climb it. When you reach the top,
you'll see Funky's armory and a Battle Arena pad. Press Z on the Battle
Arena pad to enter it. After winning the crown (1), go to Funky's
Armory. Buy the Coconut Cannon. Exit the armory and then go to the edge
of the cliff. You will see a series of vines, which you must swing
across. Once on the other side, you will find a cannon. Jump into the
cannon and blast off onto a higher platform with Diddy on it. Collect
the banana (1,0,0,0,0) and then talk to Diddy.
Three switches will appear over gates. You must hit all three with a
blast from your Coconut Cannon. Go up to the two switches overlooking
land and fire a shot at them. Then for the final one, go to the ledge
where the Armory is and aim down. You'll see the switch. Hit it with a
coconut and the gate imprisoning Diddy will go down. Go to where Diddy
was and collect a second Golden Banana (2,0,0,0,0). All the gates under
the switches you hit will now go down.
Go to the left-most newly opened cavern. Upon entering it, you will see
a Kasplat next to some banana coins. Defeat the Kasplat to obtain
blueprints. Exit the cavern and go to the center newly opened cavern.
You'll swim across the river to reach it and step on the "4" red
bananapad. Go straight in the cavern. Defeat the Gnawty and continue
straight. You will end up in a field with rain coming down. Go to
Cranky's lab and buy the Baboon Blast (Barrelum perilous). Exit the lab
and go to the rear of the area. You will see a switch with a coconut on
it. Hit it with your Coconut Cannon and the gate will lower. Collect the
banana coins and then touch the animal crate to be transformed into
Rambi! Leave the field and run down the cavern until you reach a fork in
the road. Go left and destroy the block marked with Rambi's head with
the Charge Attack. Then exit the cavern.
Go to where you rescued Diddy and face the gate where he was imprisoned.
To your left is a walkway. Down the walkway, there are some supply
crates, a melon crate and a Zinger. Go by them all and you'll find
another walkway that will take you to Snide's HQ. Enter and give him the
blueprints to receive another banana (3,0,0,0,0).
Exit Snide's HQ and drop down to the cavern where you got the
blueprints. Look around and you should see a tree nearby. Climb it and
then swing across the vines to a DK pad. Press Z when you reach the pad
to play a mini-game where you fire yourself from rocket barrels. Attempt
to line yourself up with the next barrel and fire. At the end, you blast
yourself into the Golden Banana (4,0,0,0,0).
Now jump into the tag barrel in the center of the main part of the stage
and change to Diddy Kong. Dive in the water and find some banana coins,
then go to the armory and buy the Peanut Popgun. From there, go to the
right most cavern and enter. Collect the banana coins and defeat the
Kasplat to obtain blueprints. From there, go to Cranky's lab and buy the
Chimpy Charge (Hurtus cranium). From there, go to Snide's HQ and give
them the blueprint for a Golden Banana (4,1,0,0,0).
After leaving Snide's HQ, go up the walkway and right around the
mountain. You'll see a switch with a peanut on it. Hit it with the
Peanut Popgun and a ramp will emerge out of the mountain. Run up the
ramp and enter the entrance into the mountain that you find. Once
inside, run to the set of boxes and jump up them. When you reach the
top, use the Peanut Popguns to hit a switch which completes the ramp to
the other side of the room. Walk on the ramp until you reach a switch
with Diddy's face on it. Step on it to reveal a Golden Banana on top of
the mountain. Drop down and run to the mining area. There are grenade-
dropping Zingers and Klumps in this area. Defeat the Zingers with the
Popgun. Then go to the door of the gate with one Klump behind it and
hit it with the Chimpy Charge. You'll see a machine with a high and
low setting. Use the Chimpy Charge to hit the "LO". This slows the
conveyor belts down. Go to the center of the room and hit the switch
with a Simian Smash. When the gates open, lob oranges at the Klumps to
defeat them, then quickly go up the conveyor belts. Jump in the chute
after the fourth belt. Walk out of the chute to land on a mine cart.
In the mine cart level, use the Control Stick to speed you up or slow
you down and to grab left and right. Use A to jump. Jump over Klubba's
attacks, speed up to avoid the TNT barrels from behind and slow down to
avoid the TNT barrels from above. Collect as many coins as you can.
Although you only need 50, you're bound to be hit by something, which
costs you coins. By collecting 50 coins, you gain Diddy's second banana
(4,2,0,0,0)!
Now go back to the mountain and make the ramp emerge again. Now go to
the top of the mountain and collect the Banana (4,3,0,0,0). Do you
remember the gate in the first cavern of the level that you couldn't
enter? Well, now you can. Go back to that cavern and when you reach the
gate, hit both of the switches with the Peanut Popgun. The gate will
open, revealing a Golden Banana (4,4,0,0,0)!
Now you have more than enough Golden Bananas to enter Level 2. But
first, collect enough bananas to get Banana Medals for both Donkey and
Diddy. Then, go to Troff n' Scoff's room and feed them bananas, so they
open the door behind them. Switch to Donkey Kong (if you aren't him
already and enter). You must then face Army Dillo (see the Boss
section). After defeating Army Dillo, exit the level.
--------
DK Isle:
--------
Go to K. Lumsy's island. Place the key in K. Lumsy's cage and he will
open the entrance to Level 2. Bananaport back to Kong's Isle and run to
the entrance of Level 1. When you get there, keep going, defeating
Gnawtys and Zingers until you reach a ledge with grass on it in front of
you. Backflip up the two ledges and then you should be on a plain with
one tree. Climb the tree and jump to the next platform. Run until you
reach the vines, then swing your way to the other side. Once there, jump
up the steps and enter the temple (Level 2). You need 5 Golden Bananas
to enter.
---------------------
Level 2: Angry Aztec
---------------------
Go through the initial cavern, swinging across vines as necessary.
Although there is a switch with a coconut on it in the tunnel, don't
worry about it yet. Once you exit the tunnel, you'll see a camel who
tells you that "the key to my freedom lies in the clouds". You'll get to
that later. For now, go to Candy's music shop, which should be on your
left and buy your instrument and another watermelon. Do the same with
the other Kong. If you aren't Diddy already, switch to him now.
From there, look around and you should see a temple and the camel's
cage. Go to the temple. Run up the steps and go to the left. As you run
to the side of the temple, you should see a peanut switch. Hit it and
the door will open. Once inside, you should see a Diddy switch. Hit it
and the tongues of the monkey statues will come out of their mouths.
Climb the tongues and when you reach the top ledge, look to the other
side of the temple. You will see a peanut switch. Hit it and the tongue
of the monkey statue will come out. Cross the tongue and then backflip
over the monkey statue. You'll find a banana coin and a music pad. Play
your instrument over the pad and the ice in the temple will melt. Dive
into the water and you should see some bananas. Follow the trail of
bananas until you surface. Go over to Tiny and you should see a cluster
of banana coins. Collect them and you'll find a switch. Hit it with the
Chimpy Charge and platforms will appear under the letters. Now, hit the
letters with the Chimpy Charge in order so that they spell "KONG". The
gate will open and Tiny will be freed. Go to the cage and collect the
banana (0,1,0,0,0). Then exit the temple.
Go to the Tag Barrel and switch to Tiny. Collect the four banana coins
and then go to the music shop and buy the Saxophone Slam. Go back to the
Tag Barrel and switch to Diddy. If you climb one of the trees, you'll
find that there is a vine next to it. Swing across the vines until you
land on top of the camel's cage. You should find a music pad. Play the
Guitar Gazump and the wall blocking one of the areas will fall. Go in
the newly opened area.
When you reach the area with the Kasplat, go right and walk along the
narrow walkway until you reach Cranky's lab. Go in and buy the
Rocketbarrel Boost (Boostum highus). Switch to Donkey Kong and buy the
Strong Kong (Strongum kongus). Switch to Tiny Kong and go to where the
Kasplat was. Defeat to earn blueprints and collect the nearby banana
coins. Then go back to Cranky's and buy the Mini Monkey (Kongum
smallus). Then switch to Donkey Kong. When you reach the central area
(with the Kasplat), go right. Defeat the green Klaptraps and leave the
tunnel. From there, go to the temple you should see on your right. There
is a Donkey pad there, press Z to fly up into another Rocket Barrel
game. This one's fairly easy, and when you finish it, you release the
camel from its cage. Use the "2" bananaport to get close to the camel's
cage, then retrieve the Golden Banana (1,1,0,0,0).
While you're in this area, go to the first tunnel of the level and go to
where the coconut switches are. Hit them with the Coconut Cannon and
then jump in the Donkey barrel. While in Strong Kong mode, go to the
bridge in front of you and defeat the Kasplat to get the blueprints.
Then go back on the ledge and stop the Strong Kong move. From there, go
back to the temple with the Donkey pad in front of it.
There is now a Coconut switch above the door. Hit it and the door will
open. Go inside. When you enter the pyramid, drop down to the ground
level and kill the purple Klaptrap with an orange. Then search the
passageways until you find the Bongo music pad. Play the Bongos and the
lava will be changed to water. Go in the newly opened entrance at the
bottom of the water, and when you surface, you'll find Lanky Kong! Hit
the Coconut switch to let him out and then collect the Golden Banana
(2,1,0,0,0). From there, go back to the main part of the temple. Jump up
the steps and when you reach the top, you should see a "1" bananaport
and a Tag Barrel. Switch to Tiny and go down the stairs on the same side
as the Grape switch. Go right at the passageway you'll find. You'll find
a barrel with a small opening and a Tiny barrel. Jump in the Tiny barrel
to become small and then go through the opening. When you reach the
other side, use the bananaport you'll find to reach the Tag barrel
again. Switch to Lanky and go back to the lava-filled place with the
Kasplat. Defeat the Kasplat and gain blueprints. Then bananaport and go
to the Tag Barrel and switch back to Tiny. Go back to the lava-filled
area again.
Hit the Tiny switch to create platforms in the lava. Jump across them
and hit the next switch. If you fall off a platform, then backflip back
onto it. Continue doing this until you get the Golden Banana
(2,1,0,1,0). Now go back to the Tag Barrel and switch to Donkey Kong. Go
down the opposite side of the stairs that you did before. When you reach
the bottom, there should be a passageway with a purple Klaptrap, some
oranges and a Donkey switch. Hit the Klaptrap with an orange and then
hit the switch. A wall will come down. Now leave the temple.
you leave the temple, go right. There should be a river of sand
blocking your way. Long jump over it and then make a right on the next
passageway. Jump in the Tag Barrel you'll find and switch to Tiny. Then
backtrack to Funky's armory and buy the Feather Bow. Go back to the Tag
Barrel and switch to Lanky. Go back to the armory and buy the Grape
Shooter. Go back to the Tag Barrel and switch to Donkey Kong. Climb the
tree in front of the armory and you'll find some vines. Swing across
them to go over the river of sand. On the other side, you'll find a
Donkey Barrel. Enter it and become Strong Kong. Run in the entrance you
opened in the temple and at the end of the tunnel, you'll find a Banana
Barrel. Jump inside to go to Stealthy Snoop (see Mini-Games). After you
leave the mini-game, collect the Golden Banana (3,1,0,1,0). Bananaport
outside the tunnel.
From there, there is a ramp in front of you. Follow the trail of bananas
on it and then go to Snide's HQ. Give him your blueprints and receive a
Golden Banana (4,1,0,1,0). Do the same for Tiny (4,1,0,2,0) and Lanky
(4,1,1,2,0). Go back to the Tag Barrel and switch to Diddy. Go down the
opposite side of the steps and you'll find a platform with four gongs on
it. Hit each one with the Chimpy Charge and the pyramid in the middle
will rise. Now go to the armory and use the bananaport there. When you
emerge on the other side, use the "3" bananaport to go to Cranky's.
Switch to Lanky and buy the Orangstand (Palmus walkum). Then bananaport
back using the "3" bananaport. After that, use the "2" bananaport to go
back to the first part of the level. Go to Candy's place and buy the
Trombone Tremor. Switch back to Diddy and use the "2" bananaport. Go up
the ramp to your left and jump in the Diddy barrel. Now you're in the
Rocketbarrel! Fly up to the top of the pyramid and get the Golden Banana
(4,2,1,2,0). Now the top of the pyramid has opened up and a Saxophone
music pad appears on the ground.
Go to the Tag Barrel and switch to Tiny then go next to the platform
with the pyramid on it. You'll see a Tiny barrel there. Jump into it,
then go to the Saxophone music pad and play the Saxophone Slam. Squawks
will come and take you to the top of the pyramid. He will drop you in
the opening at the top and you'll face a beetle. To earn the Banana, you
must beat him to the finish line and collect 50 coins. Every time you
hit him costs you 3 coins. First, go through the course a few times and
remember where the coins are placed and where the track lacks walls.To
win, you must pass him quickly, like in the first two turns. It is
possible to get by him without hitting him in the second turn. When you
have the lead, get the coins and accelerate whenever you see the beetle.
At the end, during the running part, if the beetle jumps off the ramp
and lands ahead of you, you have lost the race. If he lands behind you,
then get in front of him and continue running. You should prevent him
from making it to the checkered flag and you'll win! Win the race and
have to coins to gain the Banana (4,2,1,3,0).
Now go to the Tag Barrel and switch back to Diddy. Go to the
Rocketbarrel and then fly high into the air. You should see a sun emblem
with a bunch of bananas in it. Fly through that emblem three times to
free a vulture. You must then follow the vulture around the level and
fly through all the rings it leaves. You have infinite crystal coconuts
in this part. This can be difficult, but just fly steadily. Don't panic
if you miss one, just go back and get it quickly. Once you have
accomplished this, the vulture places a Golden Banana in the sun emblem.
Now just fly up to it and get it (4,3,1,3,0).
Now use the "2" bananaport to go back to the first part of the level.
Climb the tree nearest to you and you'll find a Diddy barrel. Jump in it
and then fly to the top of the temple where you found Tiny. Defeat the
Kasplat that's there and get the blueprints. Give the blueprints to
Snide to get another Banana (4,4,1,3,0). Switch to Lanky and go back to
the temple where you found him [Lanky]. Find the Grape switch on the
temple and hit it. The door will open. Go inside. Go down the ramp and
then into the passageway onto the left. There should be a purple
Klaptrap, some supply crates and a Trombone music pad. Play the Trombone
Tremor on the pad and the camels will create a bridge to the Banana
Barrel. Use the Orangstand to go up the camel's neck and jump into the
barrel. You will now play Teetering Turtle Trouble (see Mini-Games).
Once you win, you've earned yourself another Banana (4,4,2,3,0)!
Now go to the Tag Barrel in the temple. When you get there, you should
see a Grape switch. Hit it and the doors behind it will open. Defeat the
Kremlings and then hit the Lanky switch. A compartment in the wall will
open, revealing various stone monkey heads. When you hit each head with
the Grape Shooter, it makes a sound. Your goal is to match all the
sounds that the heads make. It's like a memory game. When you get a
match correct, the heads keep spinning. You are not penalized for an
incorrect match. When all the heads are spinning, the Golden Banana
comes down from the ceiling. Get it for your next banana (4,4,3,3,0).
Go back to the temple where Tiny was rescued. Find the Grape switch and
hit it to enter. Once inside, dive into the water. When you reach the
next room of water, instead of turning right like you did when you
rescued Tiny, keep straight. You should see a giant rock formation. Jump
to the top of it and you'll find a Lanky switch. Hit it and the three
monkey head's mouths will open. One of them will reveal a vulture
carrying a Golden Banana. Hit it 5 times with the Grape Shooter to knock
the Banana down. Get it (4,4,4,3,0).
After you get that Banana, the water in the room lowers, making it
possible for you to go into the Battle Arena. Step on the pad and go to
the Arena. You must face a set of Kritters. The battle isn't too hard.
After you survive for 30 seconds, you gain the Crown (2)!
Leave the temple and then switch to Diddy. Use the "2" bananaport and
get in the Rocketbarrel. Fly to the temple preceded by the narrow
walkway and a grenade-dropping Zinger. You will find a Diddy switch. Hit
it and one of the faces on the totem pole will come to life and say
"Feed me." Get in the Rocketbarrel and then fly up to the face. Fire
your Peanut Popguns into its mouth. After 5 peanuts go into its mouth,
it will create switches for the five doors, one for each Kong.
Now go to the temple with Diddy and find the Peanut switch, hit it and
go inside. Hit the Peanut switch and then go left so you can replenish
some of your crystal coconuts. Now go back across the first hallway.
Defeat the Kritter and then hit the switch. Now go left and defeat the
Klump. Get the Golden Banana (4,5,4,3,0) and then leave the temple
quickly.
Now switch to Donkey. Go to the temple and find the Coconut switch, hit
it and go inside. Hit the Coconut switch and go left. Defeat the purple
Klaptrap and hit the next Coconut switch. Go right and defeat the next
purple Klaptrap and then get the Banana (5,5,4,3,0) and then leave the
temple quickly.
Now switch to Lanky. Go to the temple and find the Grape switch, hit it
and go inside. Hit the Grape switch and go left. Defeat the Klump and
take the steps to the left. Hit the next switch and go right. Defeat the
Klump and jump in the barrel to play Big Bug Bash (see Mini-Games). Once
you win, you receive a Banana. Take it and leave the temple quickly.
Switch to Tiny, go to the temple, find the Feather switch, hit it and go
inside. Hit the Feather switch and go left. Defeat the Zingers and then
go up the stairs to the left. Hit the switch and go left. Then get the
Banana (5,5,5,4,0) and leave the temple quickly.
Collect enough bananas to gain the Kongs banana medals, then go to Troff
n' Scoff's room and feed them bananas so they can open the door to the
boss. After you feed them 120 bananas, switch to Diddy and face Dogadon
(see Bosses). After you emerge victorious from facing Dogadon, exit the
level.
--------
DK Isle:
--------
Bananaport back to the entrance of Kong Isle. Look around and you should
see an island with what looks to be a stone statue of a woman's head.
Switch to Tiny and swim over to that island. Jump in the Tiny barrel and
go inside the statue. Inside you'll find the Queen Banana Fairy and she
tells you of her predicament. After agreeing to help she gives you the
Banana Camera and a new move (which I've listed under each character's
respective moves. Keep in mind I made up the names.) in which you charge
B for two seconds and then let go. It costs a crystal coconut though.
Leave the statue and look around. You should see an island that looks
like it has nothing on it. Swim to it and you'll find a fairy. Take a
picture of the fairy (1). Leave the island and head for K. Lumsy's
island. Put the Level 2 key in the lock and he'll unlock the entrance to
Level 3 and Level 4.
From K. Lumsy's island, swim over to K. Rool's ship and jump on the
upraised platform. Then jump on the ramp and run up it. Continue to go
up until you reach the very top of the ship. As you go around the top
portion, you'll see some stairs and an entrance. Go in the entrance.
Switch to Donkey Kong. If you have 15 bananas, B. Locker will let you
pass and enter Frantic Factory.
-------------------------
Level 3: Frantic Factory
-------------------------
Begin by going straight. Defeat the two Robo-Kritters with oranges and
hit the switch. This will open the airlocked door in the tunnel. Go into
the tunnel, defeat the Robo-Kritter and climb down the pole. Once you
reach the bottom, go down the next tunnel. When you reach a door
entitled "Production Room", go up to it and it will open. Run around the
Production Room, until you find the door to the Storage Room. Open it
and you'll find Chunky in a cage and a Robo-Zinger. There is a Donkey
pad under the cage. Press Z while standing on it to go to a place with
Rocket Barrels. Blast yourself through the barrels until you reach the
DK star. When you blast yourself through that, you will create a lever
next to...the Donkey Kong arcade! From there, go to the stack of crates.
You will see a switch on the edge of them. Hit it and the gate near the
beginning of the level will open. Jump up the stack of crates and you'll
reach a passageway. This passageway leads to Cranky's lab and Candy's
music shop. Go to Cranky's and buy Gorilla Grab (Simium strainius). Then
switch to Diddy and buy Simian Spring (Leapus largium). Switch to Tiny
and buy the Pony Tail Whirl (Roundum roundus). Switch to Lanky and buy
Baboon Balloon (Baboonus balloonus). Switch to Diddy and go back to the
Production Room.
Once inside the Production Room, defeat the Kasplat to gain blueprints.
Then find a Diddy switch and hit it. A Golden Banana will appear in an
alcove. Go back in the Supply Room and switch to Tiny. Go into the room
with the Kasplat in it, defeat it and collect the blueprints. Then go
back into the Supply Room and switch to Donkey. Go back to the previous
room and climb up the pole. Go into the duct and go into the passageway
on the left. Pull the lever next to the Donkey Kong arcade and play (see
Mini-Games)! Beat it once to obtain a Banana (1,0,0,0,0). Beat it again
to obtain the Nintendo Coin. Now go back to the Storage Room and switch
to Tiny. Come back to the room with the arcade machine in it. Jump in
the Tiny barrel and then climb up the crates and desks until you reach
the duct. Go inside and then you will be taken to the Banana. Get it
(1,0,0,1,0) and then go to the Storage Room.
Use the "1" bananapad to bananaport back to the first room of the level.
Now go into the final corridor that you have not entered. Go through the
