'''Tag Barrels''' are | '''Tag Barrels''' are [[barrel]]s that appear in the game ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Tag Barrels can be found in every area of the game and are used to switch between [[Kong]]s. Before getting any of the Kongs, the barrel has question marks in place of their faces. As [[Donkey Kong]] finds his Kong friends, their faces will appear on the barrel. There are usually five or seven in every level of the game, but [[Donkey Kong Island|DK Isles]] has ten of these (eight in each level lobby, one in the main area, and one near [[Snide's H.Q.]]). If a Kong jumps into the barrel, the screen turns black and the selected Kong is underneath a spotlight. Each Kong acts as if they want to be selected, and shows disappointment if they are not. For example, [[Chunky Kong]] tries to capture the player's attention by shouting "Yoo hoo!", but acts cowardly if chosen and wants the player to select someone else. If the player moves to another Kong, he is relieved. | ||

Also titled "Jungle" by the composer of both ''Banjo-Kazooie'' and ''Donkey Kong 64'', [[Grant Kirkhope]], this theme was originally composed for Mumbo's Mountain with Ticker's Tower being an area within the level, still keeping its original theme after the level's theme changed.{{ref needed}} | * When Tiny is selected, the saxophone plays the theme of Ticker's Tower from ''Banjo-Kazooie''.
