It's time to finish up K3!
All maps by Tropicon.
Now that I have 50 Bear Coins, I head to Bazaar's General Store and get the mirror. The second option will now let you ask about the secret caves, but the information is pretty useless at this point.
Krack-Shot Kroc
Bonus areas: Two (2)
Not long after you star this level, you'll be playing as Squitter, and you'll be playing as him for the entire stage. Be sure to explore the starting area for two hidden Bear Coins along with the K.
When you see the triangle-shaped sign with the exclamation point on it, you'll meet Krack-Shot, the biggest threat in the stage as well as the stage's gimmick. If the crosshairs meet up with you and flash, you're going to get shot at when it turns red. There are metal barriers that you can hide behind, and if you hide behind those, you won't get hit by the fireballs that Krack-Shot shoots.
You will be making a lot of platform webs to get through this stage. Make sure not to space them out too much so you can get to where you need to a little
Shortly after the third metal barrier is the first bonus area, which will be at the top of a vertical shaft just before the lava and can be reach with platform webs. You have 35 seconds to collect 15 green bananas. Keep a web platform in the middle of the room, so you can jump to the bananas when you need to.
After the first bonus area, you'll have to make some platform webs to get over pools of lava. Take your time, but be mindful of Krack-Shot's cross hairs. The letter O is between two pools of lava, and if you can stand on the area between them, you can get it.
After the N, there is an area where you can go either, left, right or up. Right takes you to the rest of the stage, but going up takes you to the second bonus area. This time around, [b]you[/b] are Krack-Shot! Move the cross hairs with the Control Pad and press B to fire at enemies. Take all the enemies out, then shoot the Bonus Coin to collect it. Aim above the top of the metal barrier to nail the Rekoils, and anticipate where the Buzzes are going to go before shooting the fireball slight before they get to where the cross hairs are. Arcade fun!
The G is behind a metal barrier off the beaten path near the end of the stage. Head left near the end to get it.
When you get Squitter to the "No Squitter" sign, you'll get a steel keg. Koin will be to the left. Just stand to the right coin, jump up and toss the steel keg over Koin's head so it hits the wall on the left. You only have one shot, and if you miss this, it's going to be embarrassing.
Lemguin Lunge
Bonus areas: Two (2)
The first bonus area is right at the start! Just tag throw Dixie up and over the red Buzz to get there. You'll meet the Lemguins here, who are the gimmick for this stage. Jump on all of them to get to the end faster and get the Bonus Coins.
The Lemguins slide towards you in infinite numbers out of a hole in the ground, and they can hit you if you're not careful. Of course, as mentioned earlier, if you jump on them as you make your way to the right, you can beat them all up and get through the stage a little faster. Be sure to land near their back to take them out; if you try to leap onto their heads, you may get hit.
In some part of the stage though, you will be going with the flow of Lemguins instead of against them, which makes getting around a little harder. Keep running in the same direction as them, and be ready to jump on one if you need to.
Koing is after the O. Grab the steel keg, then jump onto Koin so you land on his shield. Face left and throw the keg to the left without accidentally throwing over the wall, and the DK Coin will be yours.
The second bonus area is after the G. Get past the roof, then head to the left without getting hit by a Lemguin. Here, you'll be leaping on Lemguins while collecting all the stars. The coin will be on the right end of the room.
Blizzard's Base Camp
Go up on Lemguin Lunge after completing it to meet Blizzard Bear. He's trying to climb up K3, but he won't be able to get back down in time for Blue's birthday. He will ask you to take a present to him. Say yes, and you'll get the present. Go to Cotton-Top Cove and go to Blue's Beach Hut, and you'll give him the present. Inside is a bowling ball, which he cannot use and immediately gives to you. Head back to Mekanos and see Brigadier Bazooka Bear, and give him the bowling ball. You'll finally be able to fire Big Bessie and head to Sky-High Secret. Play the game of Simon and you'll get another Banana Bird. Once you're done, press Left, then get back to K3 and face the boss.
Bleak's House
Apologies in advance; ZSNES did not want to play well with the background wall and therefore it looks glitched up. Also, hope you've practiced at Swanky's Side Show!
Use Up or Down to move the blue ball on the right side of the screen up or down. The blue ball indicates your throwing distance, and you'll need to switch between the two distances when necessary to hit Bleak.
Throw snowballs at the blinking target on Blink's chest while avoiding the ones that he throws. If he makes a "heh-heh-heh" noise and moves around in place, you've hit him.
After two hits, he will shoot snowballs out of his hat, and you will have to avoid them. They will be pretty easy to avoid. When he is done, throw a snowball at the target on his chest. On the third hit, he will be even faster with the hat projectiles, and he will then start shooting multiple balls out of his at a time. Thankfully, you can simply stand between the balls to avoid them. Hit the target again.
After the fourth hit, Bleak throws two snowballs quickly, then moves to a different location. Be sure to switch to the distance you need before throwing. If you can time it right and manage to get the snowball to hit, Bleak will head back to the lower level and shoot snowballs out of his hat again, and this time not only will the sweep shot be faster, but the multi-ball patterns will be a little more complex. They are easy to figure out, though, and if you can get the last shot in just in time, you'll get the Bonus Coin and complete K3.
After competing K3, you'll meet Barter Bear and Barter's Swap Shop to the west of E3. Barter looks like he's had a hard night out on the town, and he has a wrench on his desk. He also mentions a super secret project that Funky Kong is working on.
If you have the mirror, he will ask you to let him borrow it. Say yes, and you'll get the wrench in exchange.
