Template:Worldbox The Cave is the fourth world from Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. It is infested by the Tiki Tak Tribe and located on Donkey Kong Island. Besides the secret level, Jagged Jewels, every level in this world involves the Kongs riding in minecarts or Rocket Barrels. In both types of levels, the main enemies are Mole Miners and Mole Guards, who change the Kongs' surroundings and attack them often. The world's boss is also a mole named Mole Miner Max, who attacks in his Mole Train.
