Crystal Caves

Donkey

• There is a DK pad near Cranky's that will take you to a barrel blast level that ends with a bonus barrel.

Inside, prepare to pull your hair out. There is a rotating ice maze with a banana inside. The trick is, even touching the maze walls once will take off an entire melon of life. What you need to do, is make as much progress as possible when the maze is moving away from you, and continue walking when it is moving toward you.
• Near Candy's are two cabins. One of those can only be entered by DK. Inside, stomp the blue switches to rotate the room, and play a little matching game using the four-square boxes on each wall.

• Right next to Funky's is a bonus barrel floating in mid air. Use your jetpack to reach it.
• There are two doors for Diddy to enter on the large cabin. The first one is hard. You need to burst in, and defeat all the enemies in the time allowed. Use your jetpack and peanuts for the two weaker ones, then use oranges for the others.
• Compared to the last banana, this one is very easy. Strap on your jetpack and light the candles.
• After Tiny activates the fourth teleporter, Diddy can use the one of the stalagmite to reach the red Krusha.

Bonus Game

Mad Maze Maul - Bonk all the baddies in the maze and make it to the finish in time. There are 7 guys to defeat in 60 seconds.

Tiny

• As with the others, Tiny must enter the igloo. Defeat the enemy inside, then stomp the switch. Then you will need to stomp the switch that is circling the room three times.
• Nearby the igloo is a wall of ice with a small hole in it. Shrink down to get to a bonus barrel.
• Near Funky's is a path leading to another wall of ice with another small hole in it. Glide over to the small ledge to shrink, then glide back and enter the tiny cave. Then use the Tiny pad to teleport inside one of the ice domes over near the igloo.
• Finally, Tiny needs to go into the cabin. Defeat the enemies using oranges, then glide to get the banana.
• Tiny’s purple Krusha can be found near the cabins.

Bonus Game

Krazy Kong Klamor - 60 seconds to shoot 5 golden bananas. But, the lights rapidly go on and off. If you want any chance of beating this one, you must fire before the light comes on.

Lanky

• Surprise! Lanky also has to go through the igloo. By defeating all the enemies inside, a Lanky pad will appear. Then you need to use that to reach the banana.
• Go near the cabin that can only be entered by DK, and there will be another cabin to the right that can be entered only by Lanky. On the roof is the pad which allows Lanky to enter. Inside, you need to float to the Lanky barrel, drop down and run at full speed to the switch in order to grab the banana in time.
• The next two bananas are in the large ice castle. For the first one, stomp the switch and you will gain access to a race against the bug from the Angry Aztec level. Be sure to have collected Lanky's speed walk power from Cranky before you race here.
• The next banana requires you to solve a small puzzle inside the castle. Simply turn over more squares than the monster, and you will win.
• Use the Lanky pads to float up to the high ledge near Funky’s to find the blue Krusha.

Chunky

• Inside the igloo, punch the flames to save the rabbit.
• Find the small room with the giant rock. You need to turn into Hunky Chunky and carry it to the revolving switch. That will allow you access to the banana in the other ice dome near the igloo.
• Go to Cranky and get your new potion. Then go to the entrance and smash through the wall to the Cranky pad inside. Use it and a banana will be revealed.

Creepy Castle

This is the final level where you will have to gather golden bananas. By now, all the puzzles here are easy as you have done most of them before. Cranky offers a new potion to allow you to stomp the red switches in this level.

Donkey

• Near the entrance, there is a large tree. If you go to Funky and get the cool sniper gun, you can get a banana inside the tree. You need to zoom in with the gun to hit the targets to raise the water for the banana.
• Inside the castle is a puzzle in a small way similar to the lever puzzle in Fungi Forest, and if you solve it you will need to complete another mine cart level. As in Fungi forest, the puzzle solution is on the wall.
• Remember that Chunky puzzle in Fungi Forest where you had to form an your face? Well inside the castle DK has to do the same thing, but you need to stomp the tiles, not shoot them.
• Inside the library, you need to first stomp the red switch, then use the DK barrel to run invincible to the banana.
• Inside the big tree is a barrel blast, complete it to get to the yellow Krusha.

Bonus Game

Mine Cart Ride - Go on the mine track in the mine cart and collect 25 coins before the end.

Diddy

• Now, Diddy must face the toughest puzzle in the game (yes, even harder than spelling "KONG"). In the catacombs you will find a large coffin where you must rack your brain and pound the switches in order. They are numbered 1 to 4, so try your best to bash them in order.
• When you find the gold banana that disappears when you get close to it, simply snipe the peanut switch and swing to it.
• Light the candles in the ballroom with your jetpack to get to a bonus barrel.
• Fly to the top of the castle for another bonus barrel.
• The red Krusha can be found in the middle of the crypt area.

• Again, under the castle, glide to the bonus barrel.
• Inside the ballroom, use the Tiny pad to teleport to the top, then shrink down to complete another racing mini-game.
• Find the silo outside the castle and shrink down. Then, bouce inside and shoot down all the enemies.
• There is a ledge in the crypt area where the purple Krusha waits for Tiny.

Bonus Game

1. Teetering Turtle Trouble - Keep those snakes fed so the turtles keep spinning. Survive a minute.

2. Slot Car Race II - Race the car going through all the gates, collect 10 coins

Lanky

• In the catacombs, shoot the grape switch, then use the Lanky barrel to run as fast as you can to the gate. Then use the music pad to get to the banana.
• While under the castle, stomp the Lanky switch, then use the music pad. Finally, use the Lanky pads to float to a bonus barrel.
• On the way to the top of the castle is a Lanky switch that will give you access to a hedge maze. Use the barrel to speed your way through it.
• At the top of the castle stomp the Lanky switch. Then snipe the switches and float to the bonus barrel.
• The blue Krusha can be found just beyond the drawbridge.

Bonus Games

1. Beaver Bother - Herd 15 beavers into the pit in a minute.

• Chunky’s Blueprint is easy to find. Simply follow the trail of bananas from the dungeon entrance.

Bonus Games

1. Beaver Bother - 15 beavers in 60 seconds. Do not use the B button as much as you think you need to, that makes it harder.

2. Searchlight Seek - Hit 10 Klaptraps in 60 seconds. The key, as always, is to shoot a little ahead of them. After you hit one, find the next as quick as you can.

Central Hub

By now you are powerful enough to get all the central hub bananas at once. Some you may already have found just by exploring, but all are listed below. As with the normal levels, there are also blue prints to gather. You will want to be sure to find them all before heading to the final level.

Donkey

• This is actually the first banana in the game. You get it after talking with K. Lumsy for the first time.
• There is a banana on the way up to Frantic Factory. Shoot the coconut switch to get it.
• In the Frantic Factory lobby, pull the lever to access the upper level where there is a music pad.
• In the lobby of Crystal Caves, have Chunky break down the ice wall, then use the DK barrel to walk across the lava to the banana.
• After Creepy Castle, and after you activate all the teleporters, use the teleporter near the Hideout Helm entrance then shoot the switch to reveal the Krusha.

Diddy

• Once you have accessed the Diddy barrel in front of Fungi Forest, you can rocket over to the banana on top of the waterfall. To get the barrel have Chunky throw away the boulders near Angry Aztec, then use Lanky on the pad.
• There is a bonus barrel high up on the top of the mountain that you will need to rocket to.
• Right next to Snide’s (Snide is found on the island that Frantic Factory is), there is a Diddy pad to access a bonus barrel.
• As with DK in the Frantic Factory lobby, Diddy has a banana in the Crystal Caves lobby. Use the Diddy barrel to fly as high as you can to find a music pad.
• On the small island in the lobby to Creepy Castle there is a Krusha behind a cage. Use DK to open the cage, then defeat the enemy with Diddy.

Tiny

• Tiny’s first banana is on the fairy island where you need to shoot a switch to get it.
• In the lobby of Gloomy Galleon, Chunky can stomp a switch to open a small passageway for Tiny to enter. That will lead you to the banana.
• If you hit the two gongs in the Angry Aztec lobby, a bonus barrel will appear that Tiny can glide to.
• Use the Tiny pad on the island where Frantic Factory is to reach a music pad that will give you a banana.
• With Chunky, punch the box in the lobby of Frantic Factory to reveal Tiny’s Krusha.

Lanky

• In the very first level lobby, Jungle Japes, there is a music pad under a boulder that will give you a banana.
• On the back on K. Lumsy’s island you’ll find a banana behind bars.
• Inside that same island is a Lanky barrel and switch. Use the barrel, then run over the switch.
• Inside the Creepy Castle lobby, use the Lanky pad to float to the top of the small island for a bonus barrel.
• Lanky’s Krusha can be found in the lobby of Crystal Caves near the DK barrel.

Chunky

• On the main island, just find banana behind bars and shoot the switch.
• Near Angry Aztec throw the boulder then use the music pad.
• After getting Tiny’s banana on the island where Frantic Factory is, a Chunky barrel will appear on the island where you found the fairy earlier. Use that and go to the large "X" platform. Then stomp the "X."
• Make yourself invisible in the Hideout Helm lobby to reveal the way to a bonus barrel.
• In the entrance lobby to Gloomy Galleon you will find Chunky’s Krusha.

The 201st Banana: You may have thought that you have found all the bananas once you collect number 200. But, you still have one more to get. After you take pictures of all the fairies in the game, return to the fairy island with Tiny. Inside the great fairy will reward you for your hard work with the final banana in the game.

Hideout Helm

To reach Hideout Helm, use the Tiny Pad at the back of the giant K. Rool island (after giving all the needed boss keys to K. Lumsy). you will be transported to the top of the island. Jump into the island's "mouth" and go inside. Switch to Chunky Kong with the Tag Barrel in this room, then use the Chunky pad to become invisible. Some vines appear! Use them to swing across the lava to the other side. Then enter Hideout Helm.

NOTE: You are given a time limit to de-activate the Blast-o-Matic machine. This time limit is based on the number of blueprints that you collected from the different stages. If you got all 40 blueprints, you get 50 minutes. It takes about 30 minutes for the average player. If you need more time, go back and get more blueprints!

Get Lanky Kong from the Tag barrel and use his orangstand to go up the steep slope (watch out for those enemies). Switch to Chunky and shoot the pineapple switch to open up a secret door. Switch to Tiny Kong and hop into the Tiny barrel, now you can fit into the small hole in the wall.

Now you are at the Blast-o-Matic machine. Switch to Donkey and let him pull the lever. Some DK Stars appear in the air, along with a Diddy barrel. Switch to Diddy and hop into the barrel. Use your snazzy flying skills to quickly fly through all of the DK stars before time runs out. Now the doors in this room open...but there is still a cage covering them. Let Chunky knock down 4 of these cages.

To open the K. Rool door, you must collect the 5 banana medals in this place. Getting banana medals here is different from in other stages. You need to go into the character's room and defeat 2 challenging mini- games. To open the room, simply play the appropriate instrument on the music pad. All of the doors are easily found except for the Diddy door, which is high in the air. Use the rocketbarrels to reach it.

DONKEY KONG

#1 - You need to jump into the blast barrel and shoot yourself at three different targets within the extremely small time limit. You need to have a quick eye here. There is no time for mistakes.

#2 - you are Rambi and you need to defeat the required number of Kremlings before time runs out. If you hit one of the electricity things, you are dead. Again, the time limit is extremely small and you will need to hurry.

CHUNKY KONG

#1 - After Donkey's two difficult challenges, this is like a bonus. You just need to break open the boxes to find a hidden Kremling and defeat him. Hop into the Chunky barrel to become big, then primate punch away. you are given more than enough time here.

#2 - Shoot five Kremlings with the help of your Sniper mode. This game was really easy for me since I still had some homing ammo left from some other level.

TINY KONG

#1 - In this one, you need to fly through the DK stars (with the pony tail whirl) without touching the floor, and then simian slam the switch at the end. Be careful in the third star, you will need to sly through it and make a sharp turn to land on the platform. Other than that one, it is pretty basic.

#2 - Now you will need to bounce on the mushrooms and fly through the DK stars (once again, using the pony tail whirl). You should have no problem with this one.

LANKY KONG

#1 - You need to find the switch in this maze, then cross the finish line. Get some speed from the Lanky barrel, then run through this maze quickly. With some luck, you can do it on your first try.

#2 - Your mission here is to shoot, and defeat, three bees. it is pretty hard because of the time limit, so be quick. Position yourself close to a bee and fire away. Then go to another bee and repeat.

DIDDY KONG

#1 - Of all the mini-game here, this is the weirdest. Find the Kremling that hit the switch to make is solid again, then simian slam it. you will heat a sound when you defeat the right Kremling. Keep your ears open.

#2 - Shoot all of the switches to get a nice surprise. Hop into the Diddy barrel to get the rocketbarrels, then fly up to the middle part of this place where the switches are. Shoot all four of them and the cage on the floor will lift up. Go down there and simian slam the switch.

Now that you have all of the banana medals, the K. Rool door will open up. The next door you come to required at least 4 battle crowns for you to pass (see the battle arenas section if you do not have enough). Now you will see a cinema of K. Rool fleeing Hideout Helm on a getaway jet. Continue and you will find a door with a picture of the Nintendo and Rareware coins on them. You need those coins to pass. Inside you will find two banana fairies and the final boss key.

Now that you have all of the keys, go back to K. Lumsy and free him. He will go to DK Island and chase down K. Rool's jetplane (this cinema reminds me of that crappy Godzilla movie). Now get over there to fight the final boss, in the final battle of the game. Good luck! (see the "Boss strategies" section below for details).

There are no bananas in the final level. But, you still need to work hard.

The first part of the level is timed, but if you managed to collect all of Snide’s blueprints you have plenty of time to complete it. Each Kong must use the same moves they have been using for the majority of the game to get to the machine room, and then stand on a music pad.

Once they all do that, each must go through mini-games. Once you complete that, K. Rool departs leaving behind the final boss key you need to free K. Lumsy. The problem is, you need both the Nintendo and the Rare coin to get in to the key.

For the Nintendo Coin:

You must first beat the original Donkey Kong game. It is located in the Frantic Factory area, and you need to use a Gorilla-Grab to operate the lever. Once you beat all four stages, play once more and finish it again to win the coin.

For the Rare Coin:

Collect at least fifteen Banana Medals, then go see Cranky. He lets you play the classic Jetpac game, and if you score 5,000 points, the Rareware coin falls from the sky.

Once you have the key, you can free K. Lumsy and go on to the final battle against K. Rool.
