- “Whoa, there's so much cool machinery on this island--it really gets the tinkerin' juices flowin'!”
- —Funky Kong, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Juicy Jungle is the fifth world of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port of the same name. The world is opened after defeating Fugu, the boss of Sea Breeze Cove. Bashmaster serves as the boss of this world.
As its name suggests, the world takes place in a jungle area with an overabundance of fruit that can be harvested. Large berries and fruits, along with spiked variants, act as obstacles and platforms, either hindering the Kongs' way or helping them. Fruit juices form pools that Kongs can swim into, allowing them further exploration inside them. Some variants of Snaggles seem to live inside the juice pool. Another striking feature is the factory inside the jungle, which is used to process the fruits they harvested and make fruity snacks such as jelly and popsicles. The former is used as trampolines to jump off of, while the latter, alongside blocks of frozen juice, serve as platforms or obstacles that can hurt Kongs. Fruit cutting knives, fruit crushers, mincers and other sharp objects serve as deadly obstacles in this world.
Other than Snowmads, enemies in this world are heavily focused or based on fruits and berries, such as Bouncelisks and Toucan'ts.
According to pictures in the art gallery, this island is the homeland of Professor Chops and his people, who established and operated fruit factories under Snowmad surveillance. In the game, the factory appears to be entirely automated.
