'''Necky's Canyon''' is a level in the [[Wild West World]] of ''[[DK: King of Swing]]''. It can be either the first level in the world, or the second, as it is unlocked at the same time as [[Cactus Woods]]. This level is the first to feature stones that [[Donkey Kong]] (or [[Diddy Kong]] in Diddy mode) can throw at enemies or walls to destroy them. As the level's name suggests, many [[Necky|Neckies]] appear all around it, and they are the only type of enemies that appear here. Just like all levels in ''DK: King of Swing'', Necky's Canyon contains many pegs and peg boards, however, it is the first to feature pegs that crack and fall when held onto too long. Additionally, [[Booster Barrel]]s make their first appear here, found in a hidden area near the end of the level. A [[DK Coin]] and a [[Crystal Coconut]] can be found throughout this level.
'''Necky's Canyon''' is a level in the [[Wild West World]] of ''[[DK: King of Swing]]''. Both it and [[Cactus Woods]] are available from the start. Necky's Canyon takes place in a canyon and is the first to feature a few objects: Cracked Pegs, [[rock (DK series)|rock]]s, [[barrel]]s, breakable stone barriers, and a [[Booster Barrel]]. [[Mini-Necky]]s are the only enemy in Necky's Canyon, and [[Donkey Kong]] often has to throw rocks at them while progressing.


==Level Layout==
==Layout==
The level begins in a small area with a single peg that has two stones around it. A wall of stone blocks is in the [[Kong]]'s way, so he must swing along the peg and throw rocks at it to break it. Once it is broken, he can head along the ledge to exit the first section.
Donkey Kong starts in a small area with an orange [[peg]] and a rock on the left and right sides each. A wall of square-shaped stones are blocking the path to the second section, so Donkey Kong must swing from the peg above throw rocks at the stones clear a path forward. After doing so, Donkey Kong can continue to the second section.


In the second section of the level, there are many Neckies scattered everywhere and some pegs and peg boards around them. The pair of peg boards under the first Necky hang over a gap and have a few [[banana]]s on them. A rock is next to the pegs above, which can be used to defeat two Neckies flying around the following peg boards. After Donkey Kong climbs a few single pegs, he reaches some more peg boards. The board to the far left has two bananas and a Necky next to it, and the pegs found ahead have another Necky below them. When they are reached, Donkey Kong can use more peg boards ahead to progress. A small board of pegs is to the left of here with a trio of bananas and a Necky on it. Another stone is next to a few single pegs, which can be used to defeat any Necky, including the one just before a solid ledge that leads to the third area.
The second section is a vertical area where Donkey Kong can climb up pegs and [[Peg Board]]s and throw rocks at Mini-Neckys to defeat them along the way. There are some [[banana]]s placed around the Peg Boards, such as on the first pair of Peg Boards to the right of the entrance. A rock is at the upper-left, next to the individual pegs above. Donkey Kong can throw a rock at each of the three Mini-Neckys to defeat them. Donkey Kong can climb two Peg Boards to the right and pick up another rock to defeat a Mini-Necky overhead. Three bananas are to the left of a large, orange Peg Board. Donkey Kong can must go up from the right side and throw three more rocks at each of the three Mini-Neckys near him. The Mini-Necky to the left is flying behind a small, blue Peg Board with three bananas. Afterward, Donkey Kong must climb left across a few more Peg Boards and then swing from either of the three individual pegs, pick up a rock, and throw it at the Mini-Necky at the top-right. Donkey Kong must then climb up two Peg Boards and jump on a platform leading him into the third section.

In the third and final section, there are two small Peg Boards which Donkey Kong can climb from to go up a horizontal path of pegs, many of which are cracked pegs. At the top-left of the Peg Boards, Donkey Kong can pick up a rock and throw it above into a barrel containing a Banana Bunch. A coconut-spitting Mini-Necky is above the cracked pegs, and Donkey Kong can optionally defeat the enemy by throwing a rock. Donkey Kong must climb across the cracked pegs and then go up three Peg Boards. There he encounters another coconut-spitting Mini-Necky and a trail of cracked pegs under the enemy. There is a barrel above him and another to the bottom-right, the former contains a Banana Bunch while the latter contains a banana. Donkey Kong can optionally drop into an area below with a [[Booster Barrel]], which is required to obtain both the Crystal Coconut and the silver medal. Lastly, Donkey Kong must climb across the third trail of broken pegs, which lead up to two Peg Boards. Donkey Kong can jump to the bottom-right to land on a platform with the exit sign and finish the level.
When Donkey Kong enters the third area, he can find two small peg boards that lead up to some single pegs. A rock is to the left of them, which can be used to break a [[barrel]] above with a Banana Bunch in it. Many pegs are ahead; they all appear to be cracked and broken. When they are climbed along, Donkey Kong must move fast to avoid breaking them, as if they do break, he can fall. As he climbs east over the large gap below, a Necky and a barrel with a banana in it can be seen. Three peg boards with bananas on them are after the last of these broken pegs, but they are followed by more broken pegs that must be climbed along.  


Above the pegs is a barrel and a Necky, while below them is another barrel that can be smashed by a nearby rock. Farther ahead, the ape can notice a hidden, small peg board below some of the broken pegs; if he falls down to it, he can find some more broken pegs that lead to a Booster Barrel that can fly him to a barrel with a Crystal Coconut in it. A Necky above a barrel that can be broken by a nearby stone is to the left of the Booster Barrel; a DK Coin is in the barrel. Eventually, Donkey Kong can climb back up to the main path full of broken pegs can reach a ledge with an exit sign on it. When he lands next to the sign, the level ends.

Necky's Canyon is a level in the Wild West World of DK: King of Swing. Both it and Cactus Woods are available from the start. Necky's Canyon takes place in a canyon and is the first to feature a few objects: Cracked Pegs, rocks, barrels, breakable stone barriers, and a Booster Barrel. Mini-Neckys are the only enemy in Necky's Canyon, and Donkey Kong often has to throw rocks at them while progressing.

Layout[edit]

Donkey Kong starts in a small area with an orange peg and a rock on the left and right sides each. A wall of square-shaped stones are blocking the path to the second section, so Donkey Kong must swing from the peg above throw rocks at the stones clear a path forward. After doing so, Donkey Kong can continue to the second section.

The second section is a vertical area where Donkey Kong can climb up pegs and Peg Boards and throw rocks at Mini-Neckys to defeat them along the way. There are some bananas placed around the Peg Boards, such as on the first pair of Peg Boards to the right of the entrance. A rock is at the upper-left, next to the individual pegs above. Donkey Kong can throw a rock at each of the three Mini-Neckys to defeat them. Donkey Kong can climb two Peg Boards to the right and pick up another rock to defeat a Mini-Necky overhead. Three bananas are to the left of a large, orange Peg Board. Donkey Kong can must go up from the right side and throw three more rocks at each of the three Mini-Neckys near him. The Mini-Necky to the left is flying behind a small, blue Peg Board with three bananas. Afterward, Donkey Kong must climb left across a few more Peg Boards and then swing from either of the three individual pegs, pick up a rock, and throw it at the Mini-Necky at the top-right. Donkey Kong must then climb up two Peg Boards and jump on a platform leading him into the third section.

In the third and final section, there are two small Peg Boards which Donkey Kong can climb from to go up a horizontal path of pegs, many of which are cracked pegs. At the top-left of the Peg Boards, Donkey Kong can pick up a rock and throw it above into a barrel containing a Banana Bunch. A coconut-spitting Mini-Necky is above the cracked pegs, and Donkey Kong can optionally defeat the enemy by throwing a rock. Donkey Kong must climb across the cracked pegs and then go up three Peg Boards. There he encounters another coconut-spitting Mini-Necky and a trail of cracked pegs under the enemy. There is a barrel above him and another to the bottom-right, the former contains a Banana Bunch while the latter contains a banana. Donkey Kong can optionally drop into an area below with a Booster Barrel, which is required to obtain both the Crystal Coconut and the silver medal. Lastly, Donkey Kong must climb across the third trail of broken pegs, which lead up to two Peg Boards. Donkey Kong can jump to the bottom-right to land on a platform with the exit sign and finish the level.

Key items[edit]

  • Crystal Coconut: In the third and final section, Donkey Kong must enter a Booster Barrel. From it, he must grab onto a Peg Board and pick up a rock. Donkey Kong must then fly his Booster Barrel to the top, then go left and follow a trail of bananas. The trail ends at the northwest corner of the area, which has a barrel that Donkey Kong must throw the rock at to break and reveal the Crystal Coconut.
  • Silver medal: At the bottom of the third section, Donkey Kong must throw a rock at a barrel underneath the third Mini-Necky. Doing so reveals silver medal, which Donkey Kong can reach by flying into it from a nearby Booster Barrel.
