{{quote|So you've found one of the secret Banana Bird caves. To release the imprisoned bird, you must watch the sequence of lights, and then repeat it exactly using the directions on the {{button|GBA|Pad}}. It seems like a waste of time to me. Why can't these game developers come up with something more interesting?|[[Cranky Kong]]|source=''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!|Donkey Kong Country 3]]'' (GBA)}}

Rool|Baron K. Roolenstein]].{{ref needed}} Throughout their adventure, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] must rescue the Banana Birds trapped in every secret cave, one of which appears in every world, and a few on the Northern Kremisphere map itself. A few of the secret caves can only be reached with the help of a [[Brothers Bear|Brother Bear]], or by using the [[Gyrocopter]]. Every secret cave involves a concentration challenge of memorizing the sequence in which the red, green, yellow, and blue crystals flash. Each crystal is arranged and colored the same as the {{button|snes|A}}, {{button|snes|B}}, {{button|snes|X}}, and {{button|snes|Y}} buttons on a Japanese and European [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] controller, and each button causes its corresponding crystal to light up. The sequence in which the crystals flash is always random, and the player can replicate the sequence by pushing the buttons in the same order that the crystals flash in. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance remake]], the {{button|GBA|Pad}} is used to activate the crystals; similarly, the crystals are activated based on which arrow button the player presses. A secret cave has a mostly empty scenery except for some tunnels that appear in the background. By successfully replicating the order, the Banana Bird is freed from the small crystal it was trapped in, though if the order is not replicated correctly, the Kongs leave the secret cave, which also occurs if they enter a secret cave that has already been completed.
