| '''Puzzle Pieces''' appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' (as well as [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|its Nintendo 3DS port]] and [[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD|its Nintendo Switch port]]) and ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' (as well as [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch port]]) as [[List of items|items]] with a shiny curved orange appearance. There are either five, seven, or nine hidden in every [[level]], except for boss fights. Most Puzzle Pieces directly appear in hidden parts of a level itself, but a few are obtained if the [[Kong]]s collect every item within a [[bonus room]] before the time runs out. On the results screen, after the player completes a level, the gathered Puzzle Pieces individually make up an image. The entire picture is revealed when the Kongs obtain every Puzzle Piece. From the [[world]] map, an icon of a Puzzle Piece also appears on a selected level if the Kongs have collected every one in the level itself. When the Kongs obtain every Puzzle Piece in a level, the player unlocks a new photo in the [[List of extras in Donkey Kong Country Returns#Image gallery|Image Gallery]].

| | '''Puzzle Pieces''' are items appearing in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. As their name implies, these objects are shiny, orange, curved puzzle pieces. There are various numbers of them hidden throughout every single level, except for boss levels. There are either, 5, 7, or 9 puzzle pieces in each level. Puzzle Pieces are usually not easy to find and require some careful planning and surveillance if the player wants to seek them all out. Puzzle Pieces are also obtained after the player collects every single [[banana]], [[Banana Coin]], and/or [[Extra Life Balloon]] in a Bonus Level. Every time all Puzzle Pieces are collected in a level, the Image Gallery will be updated with one photo. |
