| | '''Ropes'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, page 22.</ref><ref>The ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' Player's Guide, pages 20 and 87.</ref>, or '''phantom ropes'''<ref>"''If you’re unsure about grabbing a phantom rope, wait a few seconds to watch its pattern and gauge how much you’d have.''" - ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 79, page 26.</ref>, are long vine apparitions that appear in [[Gloomy Gulch]] of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and its pseudo-sequel, ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. While ghostly ropes act as normal [[rope]]s, their main discerning is their ability to vanish and reappear every few seconds. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', ropes make their first and only appearance in [[Ghostly Grove (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Ghostly Grove]]. They also appear in the [[Ghostly Grove (Donkey Kong Land 2)|level counterpart]] of ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', and at the very start of its [[Web Woods (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Web Woods]] counterpart. | ||
In both games, [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] must utilize them as normal ropes, specifically to safely cross over pitfalls or reach higher areas. They must often hop between ropes since they momentarily vanish. When a rope is about to vanish, it flashes as an indicator for the [[Kong]]s to get off, otherwise they lose grip and fall down. Some ropes have a quicker cycle of vanishing and reappearing, which is mostly evident when the Kongs must use two of them that vanish and reappear quickly to reach a [[Bonus Barrel]]. | |||

While these ropes have not reappeared since, a similar enemy appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' named [[Boo Barrel]]s, which also have a cycle of vanishing momentarily. | |||
