Peach Kingdom
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
Template:DKJB Kingdom The Peach Kingdom is the tenth kingdom in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and the second kingdom linked to the J Barrel. The kingdom is located under a body of ice and in an old foundry. The Peach Kingdom can be accessed by completing all the kingdoms linked to the K Barrel and collecting fourteen or more Crests. The Peach Kingdom is the dominion of Torch Tusk in the GameCube version of the game, but is instead the dominion of Bloat-Hog in the New Play Control! version. Donkey Kong travels through this kingdom to fight one of these mighty foes, and at the end of every level he eats a giant peach.
Levels
Arctic Plunge
Arctic Plunge is the first area of the Peach Kingdom. The level takes place on and underneath some icy glaciers. Under the glaciers is a large body of water, which Donkey Kong has to swim through for most of the level. Although level takes place in a cold area, Donkey Kong is not harmed by the coldness of the water, and can easily swim around the many enemies in the water, including the jellyfish foes midway through the level. Other enemies include a large, round reptile enemy and a giant piranha-like foe, who must be defeat for the ape to progress. Because the level is mostly submerged, Donkey Kong does not encounter many obstacles to interact with in it, other than a single Helper Monkey and a crack in the ice that can be opened. At the end of the level, the Jungle Buddy, Hoofer the Wildebeest appears near a straight path, and Donkey Kong can ride him to finish off the level and play through a bonus game.
Level Layout
Ancient Foundry
Ancient Foundry is the second area of the Peach Kingdom. As its name suggests, the level takes place in an ancient foundry. Ancient Foundry contains lava and fire bubbles which can cause Donkey Kong to lose beats if he comes into contact with them. The main obstacle in the level, however, is its many large, round, moving platforms, each which have a small gap in them for the ape to head into to travel over lava. A dragon head also appears here as a minor obstacle to take the ape to different areas, and a Helper Monkey also appears here. The Jungle Buddy, Helibird is in this level as well to help Donkey Kong progress. The level features three mini-bosses: A large wasp enemy, a giant, ghostly monster, and an armadillo foe. After Donkey Kong completes this level, he fights Torch Tusk (or Bloat-Hog in the Wii version).
