'''Red Wharf''' is the first level of the world, located south of [[Cape Codswallop]], in the classic [[Game Boy]] and [[Game Boy Color]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Its name is a pun on the British television comedy series ''[[wikipedia:Red Dwarf|Red Dwarf]]''.
'''Red Wharf''' is the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' and the first world, [[Cape Codswallop]], where it is located in the southeastern area. The level's name is a pun on the British television comedy series, ''{{wp|Red Dwarf}}''. Red Wharf involves [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] having to walk along a series of boardwalks overhanging a large body of water. Red Wharf is the game's equivalent to [[Lakeside Limbo]], also a boardwalk level and the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. Both levels have [[Sneek]]s and [[Kobble]]s as enemies. During parts of the level, the Kongs can also swim in the shallow water to find extra [[banana]]s and a [[Bonus Barrel]], as well as climb across some short [[rope]]s and blast through some [[Barrel Cannon]]s to obtain collectible items such such as [[Banana Bunch]]es, [[bear coin]]s, and even a [[Red Balloon]].
==Layout==
At the start of the level, the heroes need to walk down a few boardwalks and defeat some enemies. Following some banana trails, the Kongs pass a few Sneeks and find the letter K. After that, they need to hop up onto a ledge and continue east, where they have to run down some slanted pathways and then follow some bananas, in the formation of an arrow, into the shallow water. There, the heroes find the letter O. Once they get the letter, they have to jump out of the sea and walk up the path to find the level's [[Star Barrel]].  


In this stilt level, the [[Kong]]s need to walk along a series of boardwalks overhanging a large body of water. Noticeably, this level is the ''Donkey Kong Land III'' equivalent of [[Lakeside Limbo]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', and both feature [[Sneek]]s and [[Kobble]]s. Although Red Wharf mostly takes place on the docks, the monkeys can also swim in the shallow water to find extra [[banana]]s and a [[Bonus Barrel]]. As the game's first level, Red Wharf does not feature any exclusive hazards and is a rather short level. The Kongs will, however, not only be walking along boardwalks and swimming through some shallow water, but sometimes be climbing along short tightropes or shooting through barrels.
About halfway through the level, the Kongs need to walk down more other the path, defeating enemies, and hop into a barrel to be shot into the letter N. They, then, land on a higher area of the level. At the end of the area, they need to follow a banana trail downwards and roll into a small abyss to get the letter G. After that, they are greeted by more enemies to beat. Knocking each one out, the apes have to walk down the straight boardwalks to find the [[Level Flag|End of Level Flag]].

*After the monkeys dive into a shallow area of water to find the letter O, they must swim under the wharfs to the left and soon come up to a [[Bonus Barrel]]. If they move into it, they encounter the game's first [[Bonus Level]]. There, they must run along some boardwalks and dodge some enemies in search for the [[Bonus Coin]]. After crossing a small gap of water, they find this special coin.

*Shortly after the letter N, the heroes drop down to a lower area and see a small tightrope attached to two poles.

There, they need to hop into a [[Rotatable Barrel]] and blast onto the top of a roof-like part of a wharf. Jumping off of this, they have to grab many stars in the formation of an arrow. Once all the stars are collected, the Bonus Coin appears in a high area of the stage where the monkeys have to blast to.

Red Wharf has two Bonus Levels, listed by type:
*'''Find the Token!''': When the Kongs find the letter O, they must swim left under the boardwalks and enter into a [[Bonus Barrel]]. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs have 15 seconds to cross a pool of water with a Koco and a boardwalk with a Sneek and obtain the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]] on the other side.
*'''Collect the Stars!''': Shortly after the letter N, the Kongs drop to a lower area and climb a rope attached to two poles and above a Kobble. The Kongs must go right and jump into the second Bonus Barrel. In it, Dixie and Kiddy have 15 seconds to collect 15 [[star (Donkey Kong franchise)|star]]s. They must jump into a [[Spinner Barrel|Rotatable Barrel]] and blast onto a roof-like part of a wharf. From there, the Kongs must jump off and collect the stars, which collectively make up the shape of an arrow. After the Kongs collect every star, the Bonus Coin appears on a roof at the top-right, which the Kongs must blast to.

*After the letter G, the group see a barrel in the air. They have to jump into it and blast through a short chain of barrels to land above the level's flagpole. There, they meet a [[Koin]] with the [[DK Coin]]. They must defeat the [[Kremling]] to get his coin, though his shield protects most of their attacks. The monkeys have only one option to defeat him with. They have to pick up a nearby barrel, stand on the Koin, and throw the barrel into the edge of the screen. While the Koin is distracted, the barrel will bounce back and hit his side, beating the enemy. Once this is done, the apes gain the DK Coin.

<< Directory of levels >>

Red Wharf is the first level of Donkey Kong Land III and the first world, Cape Codswallop, where it is located in the southeastern area. The level's name is a pun on the British television comedy series, Red Dwarf. Red Wharf involves Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong having to walk along a series of boardwalks overhanging a large body of water. Red Wharf is the game's equivalent to Lakeside Limbo, also a boardwalk level and the first level of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Both levels have Sneeks and Kobbles as enemies. During parts of the level, the Kongs can also swim in the shallow water to find extra bananas and a Bonus Barrel, as well as climb across some short ropes and blast through some Barrel Cannons to obtain collectible items such such as Banana Bunches, bear coins, and even a Red Balloon.

Layout[edit]

At the start of the level, the heroes need to walk down a few boardwalks and defeat some enemies. Following some banana trails, the Kongs pass a few Sneeks and find the letter K. After that, they need to hop up onto a ledge and continue east, where they have to run down some slanted pathways and then follow some bananas, in the formation of an arrow, into the shallow water. There, the heroes find the letter O. Once they get the letter, they have to jump out of the sea and walk up the path to find the level's Star Barrel.

About halfway through the level, the Kongs need to walk down more other the path, defeating enemies, and hop into a barrel to be shot into the letter N. They, then, land on a higher area of the level. At the end of the area, they need to follow a banana trail downwards and roll into a small abyss to get the letter G. After that, they are greeted by more enemies to beat. Knocking each one out, the apes have to walk down the straight boardwalks to find the End of Level Flag.

The following enemies appear in the following quantities:

  • Kobble: 9
  • Koco: 1 (Bonus Level only)
  • Sneek: 7 (1 of them is in a Bonus Level)
