Template:Level Cliffside Slide is the sixth level of Donkey Kong Island in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, and it is the final silhouetted level in the game. The level is reminiscent to the Cliff levels of Donkey Kong Country Returns, however, the area is covered by a blizzard, due to the invasion of the Snowmads. The prehistoric bones and cliff-sides from the Cliff levels of Donkey Kong Country Returns can be found throughout the background and as silhouettes in the foreground, but they are covered in ice and snow.

Many platforms in this level are suspended from the snow that pours down the slope. The Kongs also must be wary of platforms, particularly bones, that break from their weight. In the second half of the level, they must progress up the mountain through the use of platforms that rise and sink from the snow, as well as flower trampolines, vines, and a few Barrel Cannons. Toward the end of the level, the slope becomes much steeper, and the Kongs must climb through use of crumbling wooden platforms. Common enemies along the way include Tucks, Archies, Big Sphens, Walnuts, and Hootz.

The music selection for this level is entitled "Snowmads Theme."

Overview

Collectibles

K-O-N-G Letters

  • K: At the beginning of the level, the Kongs shoot to an area with platforms that sink into the snow. In this area, they can find the letter K above a platform with two Tucks.
  • O: After passing the first checkpoint, the Kongs can find the letter O under a wooden ceiling. Dixie Kong can fly to it with her helicopter hair, or Donkey Kong can jump on the fish being shot from a nearby Big Sphen.
  • N: The letter N can be found shortly before the second checkpoint. The Kongs can collect it while swinging on vines.
  • G: Toward the end of the level, the letter G is located in the first section where the Kongs must climb up crumbling wooden platforms brought down by the snow. It can be found at the top near a Barrel Cannon.
