This is another swamp level, and the first appearance of [[Kutlass]]. The real challenge here is having to rely on [[Krochead]]s for stepping stones, as they only appear briefly when the [[Kong]]s touch one of the [[Krochead Barrel]]s. [[Kaboing]]s, [[Klinger]]s, [[Zinger]]s and [[Flitter]]s can be found here as well. [[Squitter]] is playable in this level, not on the main path, but in a Bonus Level.

When the level begins, the Kongs must travel along the path, jump over the [[Kutlass]], and grab onto the vine hanging out of the water. From there, they need to hop platform-to-platform and also have to bounce off a few [[Flitter]]s flying by to avoid falling in the swampy lake below. Many [[Kaboing]]s will hop around the platforms and attempt to knock the heroes off, so they must be careful. They will soon find the first [[Krochead]] in the level, between two vines. The monkeys can use it as a stepping stone over the water to get to the next vine, which is followed by some more platforms and half-sunken barrels. Eventually, they will come up to a vine, with the [[Star Barrel]] looming slightly ahead. They need to break it to find the [[checkpoint]].
When the level begins, the Kongs must travel along the path, jump over the [[Kutlass]] and grab onto the vine hanging out of the water. From there, they need to hop across the platforms floating atop the swampy water and also bounce off a few [[Flitter]]s flying by to avoid falling in the water. Many [[Kaboing]]s hop around the platforms and attempt to knock the heroes off, so they must be careful. They soon find the first [[Krochead]] in the level, between two vines. The monkeys can use it as a stepping stone over the water to get to the next vine, which is followed by some more platforms and half-sunken barrels. Eventually, they come up to a vine, with the [[Star Barrel]] looming slightly ahead. They can break it to mark the halfway point.


Now halfway through the level, the group needs to jump across a couple platforms and get back on the mushy ground. There, they need to defeat another Kutlass and hit the [[Krochead Barrel]]. It should make Krocheads sneak slightly out of the water, so the Kongs can hop on their heads to get across the lake. After crossing the first few Krocheads and platforms, another Krochead Barrel will be in sight to hit. They should bounce across the next crocodiles and soon make it up to a vine with a [[Klinger]] on it. This enemy can be easily beat with a nearby barrel. After that, the monkeys must break the next Krochead Barrel and jump on each crocodile that comes up. There are also Flitters in between every two Krocheads, so the heroes can use them as an extra boost to get over the water. Later, they must jump two vines, both having Klingers on them, and bounce on several more Flitters to reach some more vines, where a Krochead Barrel can be seen. Once they hit it, they need to hop across the Krocheads and watch out for [[Zinger]]s floating around. Eventaully, the group will be flung to another Krochead Barrel by a red Krochead. They should bounce across the next crocodiles and grab onto a couple vines. Right after that, the heroes will see a Zinger over the ending pad. If the monkeys can avoid the bee, they can land on the pad and finish the level.

At the start of the level, the Kongs must hop onto the platforms in the water. After they jump across those platforms, they will get back to land. From there, they must grab onto a couple of vines. There is a Klinger on one, who can easily be defeated. Then, they will have to hop across more platforms in the water, followed by two Flitters to bounce off of and more vines. Eventually, the Kongs will get back on land and hit the Krochead Barrel, making Krocheads poke their heads out of the water. The heroes can use them as stepping-stones, and get across the dirty lake. After that, they should get on some vines and get on more platforms, where there is another Krochead Barrel. Using the crocodiles that stick out of the swamp, the monkeys should be able to reach land again, where the Star Barrel for them to break.

After that, they need to hit a Krochead Barrel and get over many platforms in the water. Soon, they will jump off a vine and get on the Krocheads, whom they should bounce across. The animals will get back to the mushy land again, where a spring is in view. It will take the Kongs out of the level.

Revision as of 20:50, September 21, 2010

Template:Level Krockhead Klamber is the thirteenth level of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. It is also the third area of Krem Quay, as well as the eighth level in Krem Cauldron in Donkey Kong Land 2.

This is another swamp level, and the first appearance of Kutlass. The real challenge here is having to rely on Krocheads for stepping stones, as they only appear briefly when the Kongs touch one of the Krochead Barrels. Kaboings, Klingers, Zingers and Flitters can be found here as well. Squitter is playable in this level, not on the main path, but in a Bonus Level.

When the level begins, the Kongs must travel along the path, jump over the Kutlass and grab onto the vine hanging out of the water. From there, they need to hop across the platforms floating atop the swampy water and also bounce off a few Flitters flying by to avoid falling in the water. Many Kaboings hop around the platforms and attempt to knock the heroes off, so they must be careful. They soon find the first Krochead in the level, between two vines. The monkeys can use it as a stepping stone over the water to get to the next vine, which is followed by some more platforms and half-sunken barrels. Eventually, they come up to a vine, with the Star Barrel looming slightly ahead. They can break it to mark the halfway point.

Now halfway through the level, the group needs to jump across a couple platforms and get back on the mushy ground. There, they need to defeat another Kutlass and hit the Krochead Barrel. It should make Krocheads sneak slightly out of the water, so the Kongs can hop on their heads to get across the lake. After crossing the first few Krocheads and platforms, another Krochead Barrel is in sight to hit. They should bounce across the next crocodiles and soon make it up to a vine with a Klinger on it. This enemy can be easily beat with a nearby barrel. After that, the monkeys must break the next Krochead Barrel and jump on each crocodile that comes up. There are also Flitters in between every two Krocheads, so the heroes can use them as an extra boost to get over the water. Later, they must jump two vines, both having Klingers on them, and then bounce on several more Flitters to reach some more vines, where a Krochead Barrel can be seen. Once they hit it, they need to hop across the Krocheads and watch out for Zingers floating around. Eventually, the group is flung to another Krochead Barrel by a red Krochead. They should bounce across the next crocodiles and grab onto a couple vines. Right after that, the heroes should see a Zinger over the ending pad. If the monkeys can avoid the wasp, they can land on the pad and finish the level.

The heroes near the hidden Bonus Barrel.
  • Right after the Star Barrel, the group should see a Bonus Barrel above a No Animal Sign, with an arrow pointing up to it. They can easily get in the barrel if they use their Team-up move and toss a monkey in it. Once the heroes are teleported into the Bonus Level, they have to defeat four Zingers scattered about a small area. They can not do this alone, however. Squitter the Spider waits at the start, so the monkeys can get on him. The helpful buddy can shoot webs at the pests to beat them. When the foes are all defeated, the Kremkoin appears.

DK Coin

  • At the very beginning of the level, the Kongs must look behind themselves. They should see two Zingers. Carefully, they need to use their Team-up move and toss a monkey over them. From here, the heroes need to cartwheel down in the path of the bananas, jump back up, and cross the dangerous waters. Then, they need to carefully use their Team-up move to go over two groups of Zingers.
