'''Twilight Terror''' is the fifth level of [[Bright Savannah]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port of the same name]]. It is a [[Rocket Barrel]] level that takes place above water, with [[Horror Gills]] attacking from the background. Although Twilight Terror is the second overall Rocket Barrel level in the game, it is the first of its type to not be optional, as [[Rodent Ruckus]] can be skipped. It is also the only level in the game to contain two [[secret exit]]s.

An African-style cover of "Mine Menace" from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', titled after the level's name, plays throughout the Rocket Barrel sequence, while a cover of "Stickerbush Symphony" from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' plays before and after it.

 

In [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze#Time Attack|Time Attack]] mode, a time of 2:00.00 is required to get a gold medal, a time of 2:01.00 for silver, and a time of 2:07.00 for bronze.

At the start of the level, [[Donkey Kong]] will encounter a single [[Waldough]], and a raft with a [[DK Barrel]] floating on the water. Once they start up the Rocket Barrel, the gate to the right will open. As the Kongs proceed through the first part of the level, a blue Horror Gills will arrive from the background and act as an obstacle. Collectibles encased in bubbles will also appear from the water. The Kongs will also need to avoid sea stacks, and [[Green Finley]]s that leap out from the water.

After reaching the first checkpoint, the Kongs will enter what appears to be a fishing ground for [[Tucks]], where fishing nets carrying schools of fish are being raised and lowered and as a result get in the Rocket Barrel's way. As the Kongs make their way through, the Horror Gills will reappear in the background and topple over some of the wooden fishing structures, creating more obstacles for them. After passing through a small shack, the Kongs will leave the fishing ground and find the next checkpoint.

In the final part of the level, more Horror Gills will appear from the background and swim towards the camera, including purple ones, which jump out from the water instead. Eventually, the Rocket Barrel will reach a waterfall and begin to sputter. A blue Horror Gills will then leap towards the Kongs and try to catch them, but is unsuccessful in doing so as they dismount the Rocket Barrel and dive into the water below. The [[Slot Machine Barrel]] is found on a raft on the water's surface.

===KONG Letters===

*K: Among the last of the several columns of [[banana]]s at the start of the Rocket Barrel sequence.

*O: Under an arching sea stack between the first two Green Finleys.

#Under an arching sea stack after the blue Horror Gills swims just underneath the Rocket Barrel.

[[Dixie Kong]] is required to access this secret exit. The portal leading to it is found at the bottom of the lake, where the blue Horror Gills lies unconscious. Using Dixie's hair, the player must swim through the water current here to reach the portal, which leads to a small area with the Slot Machine Barrel. This secret exit leads to [[Rickety Rafters]].
