                                   DK coin.
 

             Method 2: Under the 'G' is a single
                banana. When you get to it this
           banana turns into an auto-fire barrel
            and you become invincible. You can
                then get the 'G' for K-O-N-G, a
           bunch of bananas and a barrel to get
                       the DK coin (top) with.

  You should now have: 13

          Blazing Bazukas

         First rope at top of screen. Work
             your way left to get a DK barrel, if
                                    needed.
 

           Further left is an invisible bear coin.
 

               Defeat Bazuka with TNT barrel
             provided to reveal hidden Squitter
                          (the spider) barrel.
 

             Head right and start building webs
           where TNT barrel was, aim upwards.
           At top of this space is a Bonus barrel
           (Find the coin) Hint: You don't need
             to defeat all of the Buzz's (bees) to
                                get the coin.
 

           After the 'O' for K-O-N-G, go left to
             the Auto-fire barrel and go up and
                 left (not all the way to the top
             platform; there is a lower platform
           on the left. Use webs to get across the
               gap to where Bazuka is shooting
           barrels. Switch the barrel above him
            to metal barrels. Return to the right
               side of the gap (Koin (the lizard)
               should now be below you. When
              Koin faces right the metal barrels
            will hit him in the back and you can
                             get the DK coin.
 

                Use webs to climb to the upper
           platform, go left from the save point
             to a barrel being circled by a green
              Buzz (bee). Switch the barrel so it
           resembles a wood barrel (instead of a
                 TNT barrel) After the 'G' for
            K-O-N-G you are shot up through a
            series of barrels. At the very top use
           Dixie's helicopter spin to go to the far
             left for the Bonus barrel (Find the
                                      coin).
 

  You should now have: 14

          Low-G Labyrinth

         Right before the save point go left
           and up (over a stack of Buzz's (bees))
                to the Bonus barrel. (Collect 80
                                     stars).
 

              Pick up barrel at bottom of shaft
                      with three Buzz's (bees)
              criss-crossing. Wait in gap under
               stack of three Buzz's (bees) for a
              chance to go right. (Invisible bear
                      coin at top of this stack)
 

            Carry barrel up next shaft (pick up
              'N' for K-O-N-G) and go left. Use
            barrel to defeat Buzz (bee) guarding
               down shaft and go left to Bonus
                    barrel (Bash the baddies).
 

           At left arrow (spelled out in bananas)
               go left and pick up metal barrel.
           Carry up to Buzz (bee) guarding red
                 balloon and visible bear coin.
 

           Pick up next wood barrel and go left
              to two Buzz's (bees) going up and
             down rapidly. Defeat one and go to
                "No Parrots" section to pick up
              metal barrel. Use barrel to defeat
                 Koin (the lizard) for DK coin.
 

            After DK coin, go left and use metal
            barrel to remove green Buzz's (bees)
             from downward slanting shaft. At
               end of shaft are three bear coins,
                     bunch of bananas and an
           Invincibility Barrel. Go to right (past
           where the re-appearing barrel is) and
           jump up into ceiling gap guarded by
           two green Buzz's (bees) to get 'G' for
                                  K-O-N-G.

  You should now have: 15

       Cotton-Top Cove

      Bazza's Blockade

       Between the 'K' and the 'O' for
             K-O-N-G go below the fast moving
           barracuda's for a Bonus barrel (Fnid
                                  the coin).
 

               Right before the save point is an
                          invisible bear coin.
 

               After the save point to the lower
             right hand corner of the screen is a
            depression in the coral that contains
                       an invisible bear coin.
 

           Straight up from the bear coin a line
           of barracudas emerges from the left.
             There is a space in the coral and if
              you can time it just right you can
           dart in between the barracuda's and
           go down to a Bonus barrel. (Bash the
               baddies). Pick up Enguarde (the
                            swordfish) here.
 

              When you return from the Bonus
             barrel go right and downward to a
          passage blocked by a red fish. The 'N'
                for K-O-N-G is at the bottom.
 

           After the DK barrel go down and left
            and notice a depression in the coral
                   above some barracuda. Use
            Enguarde to pierce Koco (the clown
                fish) for an invisible bear coin.
 

             Finish the level with Enguarde for
                        the 'G' for K-O-N-G.
 

              Before finishing the level with the
             flagpole, go all the way to the right
                     and retrieve the DK coin.

  You should now have: 16

         Rocket Barrel Ride

        After first rocket barrel, go behind
              waterfall for bananas. Stay in this
            barrel and jump out to the right for
           an invisible bear coin. (Remember to
             aim back towards the barrel so you
                  won't drop to the end of this
                                 waterfall!)
 

              After a couple more barrels you'll
            notice a line of bananas in front of a
                  waterfall to the right. At the
             beginning of this line is an invisible
                barrel which will Auto-fire you
             through all the bananas and you'll
            pick up an invisible bear coin in the
                                    process.
 

            Higher up there is a trail behind the
           waterfall with a line of bananas on it.
               There is a banana missing in the
                middle. Jump up here to get an
               invisible Auto-fire barrel and an
                          invisible bear coin.
 

           After a Krumple (big blue crocodile)
          on the right is a single banana. This is

             Above the 'O' are two barrels. The
           one on the left can shoot you over the
                 green Buzz (bee) and onto two
              ladybugs and into a Bonus barrel.

             Blue balloon for finishing the level
                 with Parry (the parallel bird).
 

             Right after the "No Birds" sign go
                 right and out from behind the
             waterfall. Near the lower ledge is a
               Bonus barrel. (Collect 60 stars)
 

              At the end of the level, before the
              flagpole, pick up the metal barrel
              and throw it (upwards) to the left
             while standing under the Auto-fire
                   barrel behind the waterfall.
           Immediately jump into the Auto-fire
           barrel. You will beat the metal barrel
             to the other side, causing Koin (the
             lizard) to look at you, and allowing
               the barrel to hit him in the back.
                        Retrieve the DK coin.

  You should now have: 17

          Kreeping Klasps

          First shelter at start of game, red
           balloon on top. Put Dixie on Kiddy's
           shoulders, throw upwards to retrieve.
 

               After shelter and before Re-Koil

                                   barrel)).
 

            Two ropes each guarded by a Klasp
                (exploding red barrel). Beneath
             lower rope is a Bonus barrel. (Find
                                   the coin)
 

              DK coin is at end of the level, just
              before the flagpole. Get the metal
            barrel from inside the shelter at the
                                   far right.

   You should now have: 18

          Tracker Barrel Trek

         After tracker barrel behind
           waterfall, use Dixie to helicopter spin
               from ledge to the far right into a
                              Bonus barrel.
 

           Tracker barrel right after save point
            shoots you into arrow barrel and up
            onto ledge. After being shot up onto
             ledge, use Dixie's helicopter spin to
               float left and down, pick up blue
                                    balloon.
 

             Right after the Ellie (the elephant)
             barrel, go left using tracker barrel

                                  baddies).
 

            If you finish the level with Ellie (the
             elephant) you are rewarded with a
            metal barrel. This barrel doesn't get
            replaced! Don't leave the screen and
            don't waste it! You need it to get the
            DK coin. Stand behind the waterfall
           and throw the barrel to the left. You
           must keep the barrel on the screen at
              all times or it will disappear. As it
            rolls back towards Koin (the lizard)
           move to the right (keeping the barrel
           on screen) so he will face you and the
                barrel will hit him in the back.
 

  You should now have: 19

         Fish Food

        Hint: Make sure Nibbla (the
                  chomping fish that follows you)
                   always gets plenty of fish to eat
                    and never eats any Spiny fish.
                    When he turns red, you're in
                   trouble! Make sure you always
                   take him near the green or red
                                         fish.
 

                   Hint: The red fish turn Nibbla
                  (the chomping fish that follows
                   you) all the way blue, the green
                        ones don't help as much.
 

                  Under first spiny, invisible bear
                                         coin.
 

                 Trail veers off to the right and is
                   guarded by a Spiny. Go in here

                  chomping fish that follows you)
                eat the Spiny) for a Bonus barrel.
                             (Grab 15 bananas)
 

                Towards the end of the level there
                   a number of narrow channels,
                    each guarded by a Spiny. The

                    comes down from the top, the
                  second Spiny comes up from the
                   bottom, the third Spiny comes
                 down from the top.) has a Bonus
                 barrel (Bash the baddies). Allow
                   Nibbla (the chomping fish that
                     follows you) to eat the Spiny
                              blocking the way.
 

                    At the end of the level (In the
                cave) stand near the flagpole. Put
                Dixie on Kiddy's shoulders, throw
                upwards to land on the high ledge
                to the left. Get DK coin from Koin

           left, you will use it to get the DK coin
              on the rock above you. Throw the
                 metal barrel straight up at the
           opposite end of the ledge where Koin
             is standing. You must race it left to
             Koin and get there in time to make
                              Koin face you.
 

              Just right of where you threw the
              barrel up, invisible bear coin (Use
             Kiddy to throw Dixie straight up).
 

           At the 'N' have Kiddy throw Dixie up
              and right to get to another Bonus
            barrel. (Find the coin) (HINT: Look
             out for the green running barrel at
                                    the top)

  You should now have: 21
 

           Tearaway Toboggan

           At the very beginning, use the spinning
        barrel to shoot down and to the left of
        the red Buzz (bee) that is underneath

           Stay on the ground (as opposed to
      jumping on the roof of the cabin) to hit
      the other Bonus barrel (Collect 50 stars)
 

          At the far end of the level, past the
           flagpole is the DK coin. The metal
      barrel is to the left at the top of a bluff,

     Kiddy's shoulders, throw upwards to get
                     to the top of the bluff)
 

  You should now have: 22

        Barrel Drop-Bounce

       At the first Auto-fire level, get blasted to
             the higher level and use fDixie's
      Helicopter spin to go to the far right for
      a metal barrel and, lower down, the DK
     coin. (HINT: This one is tricky! Take the
             barrel down to the next level (in
         between where you picked it up and
      where Koin is) and throw it to the right.
       Once the barrel hits the far wall (don't
        let if off the screen!) you can run just
      ahead of it to Koin. Go past Koin so the
             barrel will hit him in the back.
 

       From the 'K' go left (using the floating
          barrels). Once on the left ledge, use
      these barrels again to go to the far right
       for a Bonus barrel (Grab 15 bananas).
 

      After the 'N' go right (as Dixie) and use
         Helicopter spin to go to the far right.

       for a Bonus barrel. (Grab 15 bananas)
 

          A short ways after the 'N' and after
     several vats of the pink lava (guarded by
         red bees), climb a channel and to the
      right you'll see a DK barrel at the top of
      the screen. Use Squitter's webs to go up
       and left to find another channel. At the
           top right of this channel (gap) is a
            Bonus barrel (Bash the baddies)
 

      After returning from the Bonus level go
           up and left to a shield. Behind this
                          shield is the 'G'.
 

        At the end of the level, just before the
        "No Spiders" sign is the DK coin. Go
          past this sign to turn Squitter into a
                                  barrel.
 

  You should now have: 24

        Lemguin Lunge

       At the beginning of the level, directly
           over the red bee, is the first Bonus
       barrel. Put Dixie on Kiddy's shoulders,
      throw upwards to get in. (Find the coin)
          (HINT: If you stand in front of the
      bigger pine tree at the very beginning of
       the level and throw Dixie up and right
      you'd be in just about the right position
            to hit the barrel on the first try).
 

          Right after the 'O' you'll find Koin.
        Pick up the metal barrel and stand on
        his shield and throw the barrel to the
      left. Remain on his head until the barrel
                             comes back.
 

        Just to the right of the 'G' is the other

      Razor Ridge

     Buzzer Barrage

      HINT: This level has a lot of Kopters.
          You can't kill them, so avoid them!
 

       First fat red bird has a silver bear coin
                    (drop a barrel on him).
 

       Second fat red bird has the 'K' (drop a
                           barrel on him).
 

       Right after the 'K' a Kopter blocks the
     way. Get past him to where you see a red
         Buzz (bee) blocking a channel on the
       lower part of the screen. Below the red
       Buzz is a green buzz. Use the barrel on
        the right to defeat the green Buzz and
      head down to the bottom of this channel
       for a Bonus barrel. (Bash the baddies)
 

          Under the two red Buzz's (after the

        the metal barrel and drop it so it rolls
                left onto the bird for the 'O'.
 

            HINT:  Further on you'll have to
           descend a channel in between two
       Kopters. At the bottom of this channel
       is a green Buzz (bee), so look out! After
       this you'll find three Kopters and then,
                  FINALLY the save point.
 

       After the save point, drop metal barrel
       on the two green Buzz's (bees) blocking
       the channel to the right. At the bottom
        of the channel and left is the DK coin.
 

        Towards the end of the level are three
         green Buzz's (bees) one on top of the
          other. Use a barrel to defeat the top
                      Buzz and get the 'G'.
 

      After the "No Parrots" sign , bounce on
          Kopter's head (the yellow propeller
        thing) and continue to bounce till you
       get to the second Bonus barrel. (Collect
                                 40 stars)

  You should now have: 26

       Kong Fused Cliffs

      Hint: This one is hard! You climb
            ropes that burn like fuses, so there's
            no going back. If you see something
             (like a barrel) take it as soon as you
            can, you won't get a second chance.
 

             Just above two circling Buzz's (the
             green bees) jump from one rope to
             the right (only if you're Dixie!) and
             onto another. If you're Kiddy, you
                can jump on the rock below the
            circling bees and jump up and right
             to the Bonus barrel. A banana trail
           slopes to the right, to a Bonus barrel.
                              (Find the coin)
 

             Where there are three green Buzz's
          (bees) going back and forth, use Dixie
            to follow a banana trail to the right
                  for the second Bonus barrel.
 

             Towards the end of the level at the
               end of the last rope, go to the left
               onto a platfrom for the DK coin.
             Koin is inside a cave (you can't see
              him) and you have to throw Dixie
               overhead to get the metal barrel
           needed to defeat him. (The flagpole is
                                at the right).
 

             Hint: This would be a good time to
             go to Bjorn's Chairlifts to give him
                the wrench; now you can get to
                Clifftop Cache and get another
                                banana bird.
 

  You should now have: 27

           Floodlit Fish

          Hint:  Get Enguarde (the swordfish) at the
            beginning (lower right) and continue to stab the
               Koco's (clown fish) to light up the scenery.
       There is a red and white Koco (clown fish) to the left
       right after the first yellow and white Koco. Stab him
                                 for the 'K'.
       After the 'K' you descend a channel where first one,
       then another red fish swims back and forth rapidly.
       (After the 4th yellow and white Koco.) After the 2nd
      fish, descend and bear right for the first Bonus barrel.
                             (Collect 90 stars)
        Towards the end of the level, after the
          'G', defeat two Spiny's to get to the
        second Bonus barrel (visible at upper
            right of screen). (Collect 40 stars)

        The DK coin is visible just before the
        flagpole at the end of the level. Throw
      Dixie up and left to get the metal barrel
                      needed to defeat him.
 

   You should now have: 28

      Pothole Panic
 

                 Hint: If you get right next to
               Kuchuka (the purple barrel that
               throws bombs), he will throw his
                  ammunition over your head.
 

                  First fat red bird has the 'K.'
 

              After the save point, when you go
           into the water (to the right) go left to
            get the 'N' with Ellie (the elephant).
 

               Above the 'N' is a Bonus barrel.
                            (Collect 20 stars)
 

               Hint: Jump out of the water and
             press the 'X' button to jump off of
                Ellie's back and into the barrel.
 

           At the end of the level just before the
              "No Spiders" sign, use Squitter to
             build webs up to where Kuchuka is
            throwing bombs (the purple barrel).
              Above Kuchuka is a Bonus barrel
                         (Collect 15 bananas)
 

          The DK coin is on the ledge above the
            flagpole. You need Kiddy and Dixie
             to get it; he has to throw her up on
             the ledge and then to the left to get
                            the metal barrel.

  You should now have: 29

             Ropey Rompus

             Get the TNT barrel under the 'K'
              and jump as far right as possible.
                 The TNT barrel will create an
               opening so you can go through a
               tunnel to the first Bonus barrel.
           (Find the coin). You don't have to get
                all the bananas to get this coin.
 

           You must pass the "No Parrots" sign
            with Parry (the parallel bird) to get
             the 2nd barrel (right after the 'G').
                          (Grab 15 bananas.)
 

            Towards the end of the level (before
              the 'G' and the flagpole) there is a
                stationary red Buzz (bee) being
            circled by a green one. To the left of
           this there are 3 green Buzz's (bees) in
          a horizontal row on a rope. Fall down
                from the rope in between the 3
           horizontal Buzz's to get the DK coin.
 

  You should now have: 30

        Kaos Kore

        Konveyor Rope Klash

        Where there's a Konveyor rope with
            two stationary Buzz's (bees) and one
               who goes back and forth, with a
             banana trail on the ground below,
             drop down off the rop for the first
                Bonus barrel (Collect 30 stars)
 

           Just past halfway, on the rope where
               there are two Buzz's (green bees)
           circling around three bananas, jump
           up and left at the left side of the rope
             for a Bonus barrel (it's in the tree).
                           (Grab 15 bananas)
 

            Towards the end of the level the DK
             coin is visible just to the left of the
                         end of level flagpole.
 

  You should now have: 31

           Kreepy Caverns

          After the Ghost barrel that is
              between 2 red Buzz's (bees) go up
           and to the right. Cartwheel jump left
          (to the opposite ledge-works best with
            Dixie). Use Kiddy to throw Dixie up
           into the first Bonus barrel (Collect 50
                                      stars)
 

            After the save point at the top of the
            screen you'll see a green Buzz. Use a
           barrel to defeat him, and throw Dixie
              up into an Auto-fire barrel to get
                         Squitter (the spider).
 

              Before going down at the 'N' (just
           before the "No Spiders" sign), go up
              where you can see a single banana
                right beside a Ghost barrel. Use
           Squitter to climb up this channel for
             the second Bonus barrel. (Find the
                                      coin)
 

           Bear coin for finishing this section as
                         Squitter (the spider).
 

                 When you find a metal barrel
              directly under a Ghost barrel, you
               are near the DK coin (It's to the
            right). You have to throw the metal
             barrel up in the air (to make it roll
            slowly) then use the Ghost barrel to
            shoot yourself over to Koin ahead of
             it (so you can make him face away
                             from the barrel)

  You should now have: 32

           Lightning Lookout

          Hint: A smaller lightning flash
           preceeds the larger (lethal) lightning
               flash. Now you can tell when it's
                                    coming!
 

              Small pond under the 'O', Bonus
                barrel at the bottom. (Bash the
                                   baddies)
 

            The DK coin is visible under two fat
             red birds. Stand directly under the
             first bird to make the lightning hit
           him. This will drop a wooden barrel.
               Use the wooden barrel to hit the
              second bird so it will drop a metal
            barrel, which you can use to get the
                                   DK coin.
 

               After the save point, above three
               barrels you'll see a Bonus barrel.
 

  You should now have: 33

       Koindozer Klamber

       Hint: This level is easier with Dixie in
              the lead. Try to use the helicopter
              spin to land directly on top of the
             pink Koindozer's (the pink lizards
                               with shields).
 

             The first Bonus barrel is above the
                 first Bazuka. (Collect 30 stars)
 

             Right after the save point and past
                the 'N' another Bonus barrel is
            hanging between a Koindozer (pink
               lizard with shield) and a Re-Koil
                         (bouncing alligator).
 

          To get the DK coin, you have to get to
           the Switch Barrel (use the horizontal
                rope) and change the barrels to
               metal. Now you can jump on the
            shooting barrels to get back to Koin
                            for the DK coin.
 

  You should now have: 34

      Poisonous Pipeline

      Hint: While in the poisonous pink
                 substance in the pipeline, your
            controls will be reversed (left = right
            and vice versa) - be warned! (These
            directions are given according to the
                 direction you should really go,
                NOT according to the swapped
              controls! i.e., if I say go right, go
             right on the screen, using whatever
                   button makes you go right)
 

                 If it helps you, try turning the
            controls upside down to compensate
                for the right/left switching. If it
                  doesn't help you, don't do it.
 

           The first Bonus barrel is after you've
           gone left for a while. You'll see a fish
             swimming back and forth between
              two sea urchins, behind them the
                             barrel is visible.
 

           After the "No Swordfish" sign, you'll
             see two fish swimming from left to
              right continuously, right after the
              Spinys. Go left  past three Spiny's
                (instead of going up) and down
            between two Spiny's and you'll find
              the 2nd Bonus barrel. (Collect 30
                                      stars)
 

             The DK coin is visible at the end of
             the level to the left of the flagpole.
 

  You should now have: 35

         Krematoa: The Lost World

          Stampede Sprint

         Hint: Keep watching to the right -
            you're going to be running through
            this level as Ellie (the elephant) and
                        won't be able to stop!
 

           The first Bonus barrel is right above
           the cliff at the start of the level. Have
            Kiddy throw Dixie up into it. You'll
                   play this one using Squawks.
 

                When you return from the first
             Bonus barrel you will still be using
            Squawks. Go to the left to the second
              Bonus barrel (partially hidden by
              leaves). You'll play this one using
                                   Squitter.
 

            If you can make it to the end of this
                level with Parry intact, you get
           another Bonus barrel. I can't tell you
           what this one does, because I haven't
             been able to do it yet!
 

           Make it to the end of the level
            to get the DK coin, which is in
            plain sight just beyong the end
                        of level flagpole.
 

  You should now have: 36

          Kris Kross Kliffs

         To the right of a DK barrel are two
            red Buzz's (bees). Behind the Buzz's
                            is a Bonus barrel.
 

                  When you see three Re-Koils
             (bouncing alligators), go up and to
           the right. Go to the far right and use
              Kiddie to throw Dixie up into the
                              Bonus barrel.
 

           After the Bonus barrel fall down and
                  to the right of the DK barrel.
 

  You should now have: 37

          Tyrant Twin Tussle

          Right before the "No Spiders" sign
           use Kiddy to throw Dixie straight up
                          for a Bonus barrel.
 

            After the save point, just before the
                   'N' is another Bonus barrel.
 

            At the end of the level get the single
                       banana at the flagpole.
 

             The DK coin is just before the first
             Bonus barrel and is in plain sight...
 

  You should now have: 38

           Swoopy Salvo

           Right after the 'K' enter the next tree
           and go down. When you come out of
              the tree that has the bananas in a
             curved shape in it, go upwards and
                  enter the tree that has all the
            Swoopys (woodpeckers) coming out
              of it. In that tree are 2 red Buzz's
              (red bees) circling a banana really
           fast. The banana is the Bonus barrel!
 

           Just past the save point go out of the
            tree and jump up and left (using the
            Swoopy's) for the 2nd Bonus barrel.
 

           Right after the 2nd Bonus barrel you
           see a "No Parrot" sign. Here you can
               get a metal barrel to defeat Koin
                        (you can't miss him).

           After the halfway point sometime, you
         will be going from the left tree to the right.
         When you come out of the hole on the left,
         Swoopy will be swooping down from the top
          left and flying into the hole on bottom right.
         Typically, you would run from left to right and
         go into the hole and climb up the rope. Instead
         of doing this, stop before going into the hole and
         turn around. Jump on Swoopy and continue
         jumping up and to the left. The bonus barrel is
         there.
