PrinceWatercress plays Donkey Kong Land - Part 8 of 11


Well, whaddya know? We've made it to the fourth and final world. Wish there were city levels in Donkey Kong Country.

All maps by Shiny.

Landslide Leap

Bonus areas: Two (2)


It's another mountain cliff level, but this time you're going left to right the entire time. Watch out for enemies while jumping from one platform to the next, as enemies will suddenly pop up and rocks will keep dropping down.

The first bonus area is after the first pair of rocks dropping down. Drop down and follow the trail of bananas to get to it and get the O with Expresso.

After the area with the Zingers flying between the platforms, there will be a flying pig. Leap off it to the right as it goes to the right to find the second bonus area. You can get the G here.

If you drop down past the exit to the right, you'll find twelve bananas.

Collapsing Clouds

Bonus areas: Two (2)


The third clouds area is not only the easiest, with the main gimmick being the clouds that disappear when you jump onto them, but also the most fun.

You'll finally see Expresso outside of a bonus area here, and soon after you get him, there will be a barrel cannon leading to the first bonus area. The two bananas will signify where to drop down and a little bit to the left. You can get some bananas and three bonus coins here.

Just before the N, there is a cloud that you must stand on, and if you stay on it, you'll drop to the second bonus area. Unlike the first one, the two bananas that signify where you need to stop are located on the cloud before the one you need to wait on. It's a coin mini-game.

Mad Mole Holes



The mole boss will come out of one of the three holes on the ground, then wait before throwing his hat at you. Only his hat can hurt you; if you leap on him before he throws it, you're only knocked back. As you keep jumping on him, this battle gets faster and faster, and you'll have to time your jumps more and more so that you can land on him almost as soon as he comes out of the ground. Eventually, you'll be able to take him down and move on to the final world of the game.

Big Ape City



Balloon Barrage

Bonus areas: Two (2)


Love the city themes for some of the last world's stages; it's a shame Country didn't do this.

The first bonus area is right at the start. Use the balloon that moves up and down as it inflates and deflates to jump to the right when it goes as far up as it can. If you can stay on the platforms here, you can get a ton of bonus coins.

As mentioned earlier, the gimmick for the stage is the balloons that move up and down as they inflate and deflate. They serve as platforms for this stage, and you'll have to not only time your jumps well, but also position yourself very well to get through the stage.

Just before the G, there will be a barrel cannon leading to the second bonus level. Jump onto the third balloon and wait for it to go all the way up before jumping up and to the right to go in. You'll have to deal with the Sky High Caper platform again to get four bonus coins and the N, but at least this part isn't mandatory to attempt.
