Bouncy Bonanza

This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed by April 18, 2011.

Template:Level Bouncy Bonanza is the eighth level in the Super Nintendo, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance game, Donkey Kong Country. It is also the third level of the Monkey Mines area.

This level takes place in a dark, purple cave. As its name implies, there are a lot of bouncing to be done in this level. Indeed, there are tires everywhere - including tires which the Kongs can use to move themselves upwards to get them into secret areas. The bounciness increases even more if the Kongs find Winky the Frog in this level, as well as reaching its climax in areas where tires can be found both on the floor and on the ceiling. Red and yellow Kritters stand in the way of the Kongs in this level, as well as yellow and green Zingers.

Level Layout

At the beginning of the level, the monkeys will be greeted by a lone Kritter. They should defeat the foe and head east, where they will find a Zinger flying around a tire. They should simply ignore the wasp to avoid it, and then reach an area where they will find two Kritters jumping back and fourth from two platforms. The Kongs will have to sneak in between them to grab the letter K, and then head on. After dodging another Zinger around a tire, they will need to cross a small gap to find a set of three tire side-by-side. They can bounce on them to reach a DK Barrel, and then travel more eastward to meet more Zingers. If they monkeys simply jump over the foes, they can avoid them and continue on. Right after that, the group will find two tires on some stationary platforms. The apes should cross a large abyss with them. Farther on, they will have to walk down some stair-like platforms while avoiding some Kritters to find the letter O around a Zinger. Getting away from the enemy, the group should push a tire under a wall to find the Star Barrel. They should bounce on the tire to reach it.

Now halfway through the level, the heroes should sneak under another wall and move under a moving platform to find a small chamber of tires, all on the ceiling or on the ground. Past this area, the monkeys will need to crawl under two more walls, though while watching out for Zingers. After the third wall in the whole area, they monkeys will find a DK Barrel. Again, they will have to crawl under another wall through a tight space and head east to bounce off of a tire to get over a bouncing Kritter. After that, the group will need to dodge two Kritters jumping to opposite sides of an low area. When they are passed, the monkeys should cross a large abyss, using a few tires on stationary platform. A Zinger will be hovering around one of the tires, so they should be careful. Farther on, the apes will find another abyss, which will have to be crossed in the same manner as the last one. This time, though, the monkeys will have to bounce off of tires, being surrounded by two Zingers. Once the area is passed, the Kongs should bounce on a tire to reach a DK Barrel and then walk more eastward to find another pit. They will need to use a lone tire, around two more Zingers, to cross it. After this area, the heroes will be greeted by three more hopping Kritters, jumping back and fourth platform to platform. Grabbing the letter G from under the third Kritter, they animals will need to continue east and walk along a path. Soon, they will reach a moving platform. They should ride across an abyss with it to find the exit sign. Farther on is the level's exit.

Bonus Levels

The Kongs stand in the first Bonus Level under a trio of barrels.

• When the heroes find the second barrel in the level, they should pick it up and carry it past a DK Barrel to a small area with two Zingers. They should quickly sneak under the foes and throw the barrel at the wall on the right to reveal an opening. The first Bonus Level is inside, where the heroes have to hit three barrels so that the images displayed on them stop moving. If all three of the images match, the primates are awarded. Once they are done, they exit the bonus automatically. If they fail of make a match, they are forced out of the bonus without a prize.
• After the second DK Barrel, the Kongs can see a tire. They have to bounce on it to reach a platform high in the air. There, they can find an opening. They should walk into it to enter a Bonus Level, where they have to simply break open a crate to find Winky the Frog. Once this is done, the three can exit the special stage from the right side of the area.
• When the Kongs ride on the last moving platform, they should notice a lone barrel above them. If they travel backwards for a short time, they can discover a tire. Carefully, they should push the tire onto the platform they were previously on and bounce off of it to reach the barrel seen before. It should be noted that the Kongs can also reach this with on simple jump if they have Winky. The barrel sends the group to a Bonus Level, where they need to bounce off of a few tires to grab many bananas. Once the primates are done collecting, they can exit to the right.
