'''Stronghold Showdown''' is the last level of [[K. Rool's Keep]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. It is a straight path inside a castle with no enemies. There are two hidden [[Banana Coin]]s and a hidden [[Red Balloon]] that [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can reach by performing a [[team up]] throw. By continuing forward, the Kongs find [[Donkey Kong]] tied up in the middle of the room. When they approach Donkey Kong, Diddy and Dixie are rewarded a [[Kremkoin]], and the lead Kong performs their victory dance. During this, Donkey Kong is pulled up and carried out of the area. This shocks the Kongs, who immediately run out the other side to follow [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]], who pulls Donkey Kong up to his airship, [[the Flying Krock]]. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', the "Krook's March" theme plays if Stronghold Showdown is revisited.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', Stronghold Showdown takes place on the roof of the castle, where the Kongs fight the exclusive boss, [[Kerozene]]. Kerozene attacks [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] with weakened [[Kleever]]s and a fire breath attack. In the first round, Diddy and Dixie must simply throw [[Cannonball|kannonball]]s at the Kleevers. Then, they must grab the kannonballs on the ground, avoid the flames the huge creature spits at them and then throw the kannonball at Kerozene's head. Kerozene will breathe fire in three different directions. His gigantic fists sometimes smash against the ground, stunning them momentarily. For his final attack, Kerozene shoots a fireball that sets the ground on fire. One Kong must grab the kannonball, jump on his hands before the ground bursts into flame, and throw it at his head to defeat him. After his defeat, he will fall with smoke coming from his mouth.
