Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (released as Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze in Japanese) is a Wii U platform game produced by Nintendo and Retro Studios, a sequel to Donkey Kong Country Returns. It is the fifth side-scrolling Donkey Kong Country game, and the sixth overall. The game was originally slated for release in November 2013, before being pushed to February 2014.The Snowmads, a horde of rampaging Vikings from the frigid northern seas, invade DK Island and kick the Kongs out of their home—and on Donkey Kong's birthday, no less. Donkey, Diddy, Dixie, and Cranky must then trek across six different islands to reclaim their turf (and undo the magic spell that's turned it into an icy tundra).Veteran Donkey Kong Country series composer David Wise returned to the series to compose the soundtrack for the game, replacing Minako Hamano from Returns.In May 2018, an Updated Re-release of the game for the Nintendo Switch was released, with the biggest addition being that Funky Kong, like Cranky before him, had been Promoted to Playable, with his surfboard providing many unique abilities for him to use. |

Roaring Rapids: 4-6, Current Capers. In it, Donkey Kong and his friends have to activate certain mechanical gizmos to open their path to the exit while dealing with both the underwater currents and the harmful objects that move due to them. A few other water levels have currents on occasion, but they are the main feature of this one. |

Abnormal Ammo: One of the enemies is a penguin archer who fires fish as projectiles. Diddy can still use his Peanut Popguns, of course, and Dixie gains a gumball gun. Cranky, on the other hand, throws false teeth. Lord Fredrik's horn fires out spikeballs and ice dragons. |

Ice Palace: Lord Fredrik installs one within the core of the volcano located in Donkey Kong Island, and it's from there that he's governing the island after he and the Snowmads take over. When the Kongs arrive, Fredrik makes a large leap to challenge them in battle, but due to his weight and the impact of his jump the ice floor of the throne room breaks, taking them to the red hot bottom where the boss fight starts for real. |

Yodel Land: After being last seen in Donkey Kong Country 3, this aesthetic returns in the series with Autumn Heights, an alpine Forest of Perpetual Autumn. Features include a village of timber-framed houses, a volcanic Lethal Lava Land, a Band Land full of giant alphorns, two Underground Levels with gigantic blocks of Swiss cheese, and a mountain shaped like a giant owl. There's some truly beautiful Scenery Porn going on, too. |

Badass Adorable |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_15da4941 |
comment |
Badass Adorable: Dixie Kong. On the badass front, she, like all the other sidekicks, can do everything DK can in co-op mode. In addition to this, she can spin her ponytail like a helicopter to either extend the height and distance of her jumps or swim through strong currents underwater, which is generally seen as the most useful of the three sidekicks' special abilities for easily navigating most levels. On the adorable front, it's clear that Retro Studios was really trying to play up the "cute" factor: they gave her great big puppy dog eyes (noticeably bigger than the other characters'), a squeaky high-pitched voice, and several cute mannerisms such as her tendency to giggle a lot and the silly little happy dance she does upon successfully completing a puzzle piece challenge, finishing a level with all KONG letters, etc. |

Shipwreck Start: The Lost Mangroves, the first world, are loosely based on the Bermuda Triangle and as a result feature a ridiculous number of shipwrecks (mostly of more modern, World War II-looking battleships rather than the piratey masted ships of previous games), crashed planes and abandoned submarines. The Kongs end up in this world as a result of the Snowmads blowing them off DK Island at the beginning of the game. |

Temporary Platform: There's a level where many platforms fall down while having a vertical position through magnetic rails but switch to horizontal position when they go through the lit segments of the rails; the huge difficulty of this level due to the requirement of quick reflexes is why it happens to be one of the game's Brutal Bonus Levels. |

Sorting Algorithm of Threatening Geography |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_18ca6144 |
comment |
Sorting Algorithm of Threatening Geography: Played with. The first five main islands all start peacefully, but their following levels move onto the more dangerous areas or sections (for example, Autumn Heights start with ground-based levels, continues with cavern and mining levels at the middle of the mountain, and culminates with threatening levels at the top in the sky; once the boss is defeated, the Kongs arrive to Bright Savannah, whose first level is a lively carnival with few hazards, but once again is followed up by progressively harsher locations). The sixth island, due to being the last without counting the bonus world, is threatening from the get-go. |

comment |
Direct Continuous Levels: The game does this in a way. The end of each level shares the look of the beginning of the next level, subtly implying their connection to each other. Sometimes the theme of future levels are set up in earlier levels. For example, one level takes place during a storm, and lightning strikes a grassy field in the background setting it on fire. The next level takes place in the resulting brushfire. |

Underwater Ruins: The game has some rather Atlantean-looking ruins in the Sea Breeze Cove world. This being a pretty light-on-story game, their history is unexplained. The first world, Lost Mangrove, is a partially-submerged Derelict Graveyard of shipwrecks and crashed planes, overgrown with vegetation. |

Mythology Gag: There's an overt reference to the obscure Donkey Kong 3, with a stage from the game and Stanley the Bugman's bug sprayer appearing in the factory. Sometimes when you leave the shop in the Switch version as Funky, Tawks will encourage you to give the Snowmads the "old banana slamma". Funky's planes have the Funky's Stadium logo on them (previously seen in Mario Kart Wii). A subtle reference to the fact that Cranky Kong is the original arcade Donkey Kong: His CK barrels have the same font and color scheme as the title of Donkey Kong '94. |

Easter Egg |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 |
comment |
Easter Egg: In the plane at the beginning of Mangrove Cove, one can find a set of televisions that display the menu screen from Donkey Kong Country Returns if they are turned on. The gramophone at the end of 1-3 will play the original Donkey Kong Country theme if you pound next to it. A tank from Super Mario Bros. 3 appears in the background of one stage. In Busted Bayou, you can see Samus's spaceship among the crashed aircraft in the background. In Amiss Abyss, a Metroid can be seen swimming in the background after you backtrack following a certain point (and unlike the first Metroid Easter egg, this one wasn't discovered until four years after the game was released). Fitting, given that Retro Studios also developed the Metroid Prime Trilogy series and previously hid Crocomire's skull and some fossilized baby Leviathans in Donkey Kong Country Returns. These and far more Easter eggs can be seen in The Geek Critique's Easter egg wrap-up for Tropical Freeze. |

Collecting bananas gradually fills a gauge on the HUD that, when full, allows the Kongs to transform all onscreen enemies into extra lives, recovery hearts, or Banana Coins, depending on which partner you currently have. It takes two characters to pull off the move, though, so Donkey Kong is out of luck if he's by himself. |

Character Select Forcing: Though the game can be cleared by having any of Donkey's sidekicks, or even only playing as DK himself, certain secret exits that unlock hidden levels require Donkey to be accompanied by a specific sidekick (for example, an aquatic level has a secret exit obstructed by a strong water current that can only be overcome with Dixie's Helicopter Hair, while a factory level has a secret exit behind a spiky path that can only be crossed with Cranky's cane). |

comment |
Endless Winter: This is how the Snowmad Tribe successfully conquered Donkey Kong's island, which was a warm tropical island in all previous Donkey Kong Country games. Lord Fredrik turns it into a cold tundra (with the help of his magical Viking horn capable of releasing dragon-shaped ice projectiles) so his people can live there. The aim of the Kongs is to return to their homeland and confront Fredrik to claim it back and find a way to restore its former warm state. |

Under the Sea: Sea Breeze Cove, the fourth island. Underwater levels make a comeback after Returns opted for Super Drowning Skills instead. Features include sunken mechanisms that can be activated by passing through luminous buttons, an underwater maze where the Kongs have to open chest with color-coded keys in a specific sequence, a giant squid they have to run away from (which also appeared in the previous game), and underwater currents that make navigation difficult. |

Game-Breaking Bug: The game had a rare glitch that prevented the player from advancing to level 3-4 after completing 3-3. The path would open up, but Donkey Kong couldn't move. While this didn't happen to most people, those that encountered the glitch had no way of completing the rest of the game. Fortunately this was fixed in a patch. |

Aquatic Mook |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_34875b6b |
comment |
Aquatic Mook: Finleys (large fish that come in blue and red variations), Gargantuan Gills (massive fanged fish), Gordos (indigo-colored fish with robust bodies), Fritzs (moray eels capable of producing electricity), and Mama Saws (sawfish whose noses actually look like man-made chainsaws). Finleys usually show gestures of boredom and swim in various patterns, with the blue ones swimming slowly and the red ones swimming faster; Gargantuan Gills attempt to swallow the Kongs in one bit by jumping out of the water (some of them, colored purple, even manage to chew railtracks during a Minecart Madness level); Gordos act and move similarly to Finleys, but require extra hits to be defeated; Fritzs attempt to hurt the Kongs with their bioelectricity, and can teleport between spots by creating whirlpools; and Mama Saws attempt to charge at the Kongs to harm them with thir saw-like noses. |

These barrels also act as slot machines, as several images are shown one after another, and whichever one is displayed when a Kong touches it will become their prize: A banana, a bunch thereof, a coin, a balloon, or a DK icon that allows the player to shake the Wiimote (and Nunchuk if also used) to trigger a multiplier for a randomly-selected collectible. |

He's also one of 3 bosses in the game to get a heavy metal boss theme. Some of his Mooks are walruses too. |

Bootstrapped Theme: The initial E3 2013 trailers and gameplay footage frequently used the Jungle Hijinx theme, DK Island Swing, with the implication that it would be used in the opening Lost Mangrove levels. But later footage revealed that the Lost Mangrove levels would instead feature a new piece of music, which seems to indicate that DK Island Swing was used more to hype up the fans. It's instead used in the secret K levels, unlocked by getting every KONG letter in each world. |

Deadly Dust Storm: Level 3-3, "Frantic Fields". It takes place in a savannah hit by a huge dust storm that evolves into a tornado. There are dust devils that will launch the Kongs away at very high speeds, the wind grows strong enough to blow Snomads and even a full-grown Cape buffalo around (and the Kongs eventually, to the point where you can only move forward by rolling or sprinting against the wind) and lightning begins raining down, dealing damage and destroying platforms. |

Long Song, Short Scene: The famous Stickerbush Symphony theme returns, but only plays at the beginning and end of a Rocket Barrel stage. 2-4, Sawmill Thrill, has a track that only plays when you respawn from the second checkpoint. It lasts about a minute before looping, but unless you stop to listen to it instead of jumping into the minecart right away (which changes the music back to the main level music), you won't hear more than the first 5 seconds. |

| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_4d20a148 |
comment |
New Work, Recycled Graphics: The game reuses some assets from Donkey Kong Country Returns. It's noticeable with the sound effects, which are primarily derived from the latter game (such as DK and Diddy's voice lines, Diddy's jetpack, and the pronounced "KNOCK-KNOCK" sound of Goomba Stomping an enemy), and some of the character, prop and UI animations. A few of the Mooks are also Suspiciously Similar Substitutes of enemies from Returns; Awks and Dozies are birdlike Goombas (the former a parrot, the latter a dodo) while Rawks and Sour Dodos are recolored variants that actively chase the Kongs, Tiki Buzzes and Hootzes are both flying Goomba Springboards while Tiki Tork and Puffton both fill the niche of a flying enemy that can be stomped thrice, and Squidly and the fish fired by Archy both fly through the air from the right, ripe for the stomping, while Electrasquid and the flaming fishbones shot by red Archy are similar enemies that cannot be stomped. |

All the Worlds Are a Stage: The last world, Donkey Kong Island, is a review of every world in Donkey Kong Country Returns, with each regular stage being based around the most iconic challenges found in that particular area in the first game. The Final Boss, Lord Fredrik, is also fought where Tiki Tong was in the previous game. The secret levels are brand-new, however. |

Bramble Scramble, named after the level of the same name from Donkey Kong Country 2. The final level before Fredrik has an eerie laughter in the background. Said laughter belongs to Tiki Tong. |

Bring It: The Kongs do various gestures relating to the trope before throwing down with a boss. Funky Kong from the Switch version embodies the trope more traditionally, beckoning the boss with both hands. The giant grasshopper enemy, Punchy Paddy, gestures such to the Kongs as it glides down after a jump. |

Overlaps with Eternal Engine for one level. The last level and Boss Battle also overlap with Slippy-Slidey Ice World, featuring a mix between regular ice, frozen fruits, and popsicles (with that last one becoming important for setting up the boss fight). The game also has a level in Autumn Heights where the Kongs explore a cavern with large amounts of cheese. |

Throw the Mook at Them: Certain enemies can be stunned after being hit, and then grabbed to be thrown at other enemies. The game was inspired by Super Mario Bros. 2 in this regard, so it makes sense. During the Final Boss battle, Lord Fredrik spends part of the final battle against him as a Background Boss. He sends his minions to attack you, but you can toss them back at him, prompting him to jump into the foreground for a proper battle. |

The Lost Woods: There are two examples. Autumn Heights is a Forest of Perpetual Autumn variant with unique features like falling leaves that can be used as platforms, chapels whose bells can be rung to trigger cetain effects, a Minecart Madness segment where the Kongs have to evade numerous trunks and round saws, and a cavern with lots of cheese. Much later in the game, the Kongs revisit a part of the Forest region from Returns once they return to Donkey Kong Island; the twist is that, like the rest of the island, it's now under an Endless Winter, resulting in an abundance of gigantic snowflakes that are harmful upon contact. |

Guide Dang It! |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 |
comment |
Guide Dang It!: During a roll, you can jump even without touching the ground, in a sort of Double Jump. The game will never tell you this, but it's required to grab a few collectibles without cheesing them with Diddy or Dixie's flight skills. However, as this techinque existed in the original SNES and Gameboy trilogies(and was necessary in several levels of DKC2), this may be an artifact of the original '90s gameplay. |

Circus Synths: The very first boss level, Big Top Bop, has you fighting an ill-tempered sea lion in a circus tent. You'd think the music would be lighthearted, right? Nope. The theme for this level is straight up metal, with electric guitars accompanied by synths. |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: In addition to the red balloons, you can go to Funky's shop to buy the green balloon from the Nintendo 3DS port of Returns and a brand new blue balloon that extends your Oxygen Meter. The letters on DK Barrels also change color to indicate which Kong is within: a blue DD for Diddy, a pink DX for Dixie, and a yellow CK for Cranky. |

Kaizo Trap: Like in Returns, a few levels will pull this on you if you don't jump for the barrel quick enough. For example, in the Gusty Glade level in the third world, if you idle for too long in the last hovering rock before the exit, a lightning bolt will land onto it and destroy it, causing the Kongs to fall down and die. |

100% Completion: Like Returns, the game has 200% as the maximum amount. And once again, the only things that count towards completion percentage are the Kong letters (since you need them all to open all the stages), completing said stages and then completing them again in Hard Mode. Puzzle pieces and Time Attack medals don't factor in. |

Spikes of Doom: Many levels feature spiky hazards that must be avoided, though Rambi can destroy them in the levels where he appears. Cranky Kong can tackle them easily by jumping onto them harmlessly with his cane. In the Switch version, Funky Kong is immune to spikes on the ground, as he'll plant his surfboard on the spikes to protect himself; however he cannot walk or run when this happens, he will need to jump to get moving again. |

Meaningless Lives: There are many, many ways to rack up extra lives, such as Diddy's Kong Pow skill (which turns all on-screen enemies into 1-ups), purchasing them from Funky Kong, and of course the many, many ways to collect 100 bananas. A halfway diligent player can have 99 lives before they even complete the first world. It helps, because this game is still pretty Nintendo Hard. |

comment |
Gimmick Level: The second secret level Shoal Atoll is unique in that, while it's an underwater level that fits the theme of its world (Sea Breeze Cove), it eschews the usual A-to-B gameplay style of its fellows in favor of a submerged maze where a treasure hunt takes place, resulting in a non-linear design. Donkey Kong and his friends have to traverse the maze in order to open chests by using color-coded keys in a sequential pattern (namely, each key opens a specific chest that guards the key that opens the next chest). They also need to keep an eye on their Oxygen Meter, since the number of air bubbles is limited. The last key opens the valve that leads to the exit. |

As the number of figurines to collect increases each time you clear a world, and getting unique figurines is a Luck-Based Mission as they're only available through the Capsule Toy Machine in Funky Kong's shop (with no real way to manipulate the chances of getting a unique one), Funky will stop the player from using the machine if all the unique figurines currently available have been collected, preventing them from wasting their hard-earned Banana Coins on the machine. |

Controllable Helplessness: A Downplayed example in the first post-game level, in which there is a section of falling platforms and there is lower gravity because of the fact. At the end of the section, there is a Barrel Cannon that will be destroyed if left alone for too long. If one lets it get destroyed, then the player has no choice but to let the Kongs fall to their doom and watch as Donkey Kong rides a balloon back to the start of the level. |

This will give you a hint that there will be a total of seven worlds in the game to beat even though you haven't collected all the Mysterious Relics yet. |

comment |
Continuity Nod: The first level begins with the player having to shake the controller before the gameplay begins for real, just like in the first level of the previous game. In the first water area of the first level, diving completely underwater plays a updated remix of the water levels from Donkey Kong Country. Dixie's gumball gun is a sly reference to her Idle Animation (chewing bubblegum) in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. One of her idle animations is an air guitar, referencing her victory animation in Donkey Kong Country 2. In the secret exit of 1-3, Canopy Chaos, you can find Cranky's Victrola from the intro to the original DKC, and it even plays the same tune. World 6, Donkey Kong Island, is filled with them for players of Returns. Namely, the first eight levels are set respectively on the eight main worlds in the previous game, while the secret temple level lies where the Golden Temple was. Snaggles, Mimics, Screaming Pillars, and Squiddicus are returning enemies from the first Donkey Kong Country Returns. The Big Squeekly also makes a cameo appearance, frozen in a block of ice in 6-4, Blurry Flurry. |

Fortunately, there are platforms there, and that's where the battle takes place. |

One-Hit Kill: Like in Returns, there are levels which, at one point, have each a deadly hazard that can kill the Kongs upon contact (with the gigantic durian rolling at them in 3-2 and the tall fruit grinder approaching them in 5-2 standing out). However, unlike its predecessor, the game eliminates the instant-death vulnerability in rocket barrels and mine carts (they're given a life meter akin to that of the characters). |

Rule of Three: The walrus and giant owl enemies need to be jumped on three times to defeat. Each boss has three phases, and almost all of them need to be hit three times to enter the next phase or defeat them if it's the last. Starting from the third consecutive jump, the player is rewarded for damaging enemies by jumping on them without touching the ground. It starts with a Banana Coin before eventually becoming a Life Balloon. |

Forest of Perpetual Autumn: The second world, Autumn Heights, is heavily based on a fall theme. All of its component levels are thus inspired by autumn themes, but this is especially evident in Horn Top Hop, the third level. This consists of a forest of towering birch trees with red and gold leaves. A solid canopy of autumn leaves marks the top of the level, more carpet the forest floor, and large leaves fall to earth periodically, providing temporary platforms to jump on. |

Variable Mix: A more relaxing, atmospheric version of a level's theme will play when you are underwater. In addition, a large amount of stages add more instruments as you go along. World 2-6 (Wing Ding) has two versions of the track for when you're on the ground and zip-lining along the vines. The normal one has more percussion, while the zipline one is more airy. World 4-4 (Irate Eight) has four tracks playing throughout the level. One at the beginning, one while underwater, a remix of Lockjaw's Locker, and a tense theme played while being chased by the octopus. Mountain Mania and Frantic Fields gain extra drums when you're riding Rambi. |

Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: The bosses are no pushovers and are quite challenging with at least nine hit points, especially the last one. However, you will still lose far more lives in the levels. |

No OSHA Compliance: Sawmill Thrill. What kind of sawmill would allow minecart tracks to run through it, let alone ones that are in easy reach of the blades? The juice-making factory in Juicy Jungle has unguarded tanks, exposed juicer blades, and animals swimming in the juice. |

Oxygen Meter |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_b543bac4 |
comment |
Oxygen Meter: In contrast to their original Super Not-Drowning Skills, the Kongs have these underwater. It lasts about 30 seconds and leads to them rapidly taking damage until they die or resurface if it runs out. Fortunately, there are Oxygenated Underwater Bubbles around for them to breathe with, and Funky Kong in the Switch port averts it completely; being able to stay underwater as long as he likes thanks to his scuba-diving gear. |

Evil Is Deathly Cold: The game has Donkey Kong's peaceful tropical island taken over by the Snowmads, a villainous group of Viking-like arctic animals, led by Lord Fredrik, a Wily Walrus who uses his magical horn to cover the island in ice and snow and blow the Kongs away. The whole objective of the game is to help the Kongs get back to the island, defeat the Snowmads, and reverse the Endless Winter placed on the island. |

Brutal Bonus Level: The temples from Returns make, well, a return, and once again they can only be unlocked by gathering all KONG letters in the standard levels. They're exceptionally difficult, featuring setpieces and gimmicks that make up for more devious level designs, and anything below honed reflexes and timing results in a guaranteed death. Completing them unlocks the equally difficult Secret Seclusion levels, which constitute a Bonus Dungeon in their own right. |

Cue Boss Battle. |

Shout-Out |

comment |
Shout-Out: Kensuke Tanabe, the game's producer, stated that the pluck-and-carry mechanic is carried over from Super Mario Bros. 2, which he also produced. Cranky Kong's gameplay style involves using his cane as a pogo stick. Sound familiar? One of the savannah levels takes place in the middle of a parade full of papercraft animals extremely similar to those from The Lion King Broadway musical. The music is also very Lion King-esque. During DK's Idle Animation of him playing a 3DS, you can actually hear sounds from the following games: Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Donkey Kong Country Returns. Funky Kong's description of the Crash Guard: "Vehicle Trouble? It's dangerous to go alone — take one of these!" Cranky Kong had previously referenced the phrase in Returns. Funky Kong mentions the Extra Heart item as a "container", referencing the Heart Container item from The Legend of Zelda series. One stage name is Swinger Flinger, possibly a call out to Clinger Winger from another Nintendo Hard platformer, Battletoads. |

One of the secret levels at the end, Crazy Clouds, features a whole graveyard of crashed planes on the side of a floating mountain, with a few stray propellers and other bits still, barely, airborne. |

Of course, this being a simple Donkey Kong platformer where the story is only focused on the Kongs and their adversaries, no history of these ruins and how they came to be is told. They're just there for Scenery Porn. |

Edible Ammunition: The game has the Penguin Snomads use fish as ammo against the Kongs. Dixie Kong also uses a gun similar to Diddy's that fires bubblegum (a reference to her gum-chewing Idle Animation in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!). |

Villainous Badland, Heroic Arcadia: The game goes the Fisher King route, with the jungle paradise transformed into a Slippy-Slidey Ice World by the magic of Snowmads. The game also plays this trope in microcosm with the Juicy Jungle island, where a fecund paradise of gigantic fruits gives way to an ugly factory as you get closer to the Snowmad base. |

Tactical Suicide Boss: Skowl and Lord Fredrik often attack the Kongs by sending mooks at them. But since the game heavily employs Throw the Mook at Them, the Kongs can grab one of them and then wait until the bosses are close enough to land a hit onto them. |

Anti-Frustration Features |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 |
comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: As the number of figurines to collect increases each time you clear a world, and getting unique figurines is a Luck-Based Mission as they're only available through the Capsule Toy Machine in Funky Kong's shop (with no real way to manipulate the chances of getting a unique one), Funky will stop the player from using the machine if all the unique figurines currently available have been collected, preventing them from wasting their hard-earned Banana Coins on the machine. The Switch version allows you to access your entire inventory in the middle of a stage, meaning you no longer have to decide in advance what items to bring with you into a stage or worry about having the wrong (or no) support Kong for certain collectibles or secret exits (especially when the levels in question are either unsuitable for certain Kongs or don't provide many Kong barrels). |

Lethal Lava Land: Scorch 'n' Torch, one of the levels in the third world, is a variant that mixes this with Green Hill Zone, in that it's an African savanna that is being subjected to a pervasive brush fire. Near the end of the game, the Kongs go through a traditional volcanic level when revisiting the Volcano region of their own island. |

In the Remaster for the Switch, Funky Kong got Promoted to Playable. Not only does Funky have 5 hearts at default, but he also has all the special abilities of the other Kongs, essentially making playing as him the Easy Mode of the game. You can also play as DK and the other Kongs in this mode as well, but you're granted an extra heart for each Kong for a grand total of 3 when DK is alone, and 6 when partnered. Other perks include a more effective invincibility potion for sale, K-O-N-G letters staying collected if you die, and the option to skip a level after dying in it a certain amount of times. |

comment |
Battle Theme Music: Following the trend of Returns, the bosses all have their own battle themes to stand out from the style of the SNES trilogy. In particular, Pompy, Bashmaster and Lord Fredrik employ Autobots, Rock Out! for their themes, whereas Skowl uses Ominous Latin Chanting that has been noted to bear a considerable similarity with the famous theme of Sephiroth's One-Winged Angel form in Final Fantasy VII, Ba-Boom uses a fast-paced tribal composition to go along with his mischievous nature, and Fugu uses a track that borrows the musical style of the tense tracks played in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (both games were composed by David Wise, so this makes sense). |

Turns Red: All the bosses do this after taking a few hits, indicated by emitting Briffits and Squeans and, for some of them, literally changing color, like Pompey turning from lavender to a pale red, or Bashmaster turning purple because he keeps slipping into the purple fruit juice surrounding the arena when you hit him. Every boss gains new attacks or mixes up their existing ones after doing so, like Pompey's fish-summoning attack having him throw larger fish and sea urchins, or Skowl's Feather Flechettes getting launched in multiple barrages at a time. |

Hailfire Peaks |
| Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Video Game) / int_e402b8bd |
comment |
Hailfire Peaks: The Lost Mangroves world is a mix of Bubblegloop Swamp, Palmtree Panic, elements of Jungle Japes, and Derelict Graveyard, with many decaying planes and ships. The level Zipline Shrine also factors in some Temple of Doom elements. Autumn Heights is a Yodel Land take on Green Hill Zone, with the hills gradually ascending into a full-on Death Mountain. Horn Top Hop mixes in some Band Land setpieces, Mountain Mania features some Lethal Lava Land elements via an erupting volcano, and Sawmill Thrill gives a Minecart Madness ride through an Eternal Engine. Finally, the Rodent Ruckus level mixes Minecart Madness, Blackout Basement, Temple of Doom, and Level Ate, via a cheese factory. The Kongs, riding a rocket barrel, must escape a giant rolling cheese wheel (a parody of the famous boulder scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark). Bright Savannah is mainly a pretty straightforward Green Hill Zone (albeit a Serengeti Plains-themed one), but one level, Scorch and Torch, is set amid a brush fire, bringing in Lethal Lava Land elements, and another, Frantic Fields, has you caught up in a tornado, turning the level into a Gusty Glade. Juicy Jungle is a combination of Jungle Japes, Level Ate, and Eternal Engine, with a processing plant on this island that makes huge blocks of jelly out of the jungle's tropical fruits. Donkey Kong Island's levels mixes Slippy-Slidey Ice World with the settings seen in Returns (namely, and in order of appearance, Jungle Japes, Palmtree Panic, Temple of Doom, Underground Level, The Lost Woods, Prehistoria / Death Mountain, Eternal Engine and Lethal Lava Land). |

Combination Attack: The Kong Pow. Collecting bananas gradually fills a gauge on the HUD that, when full, allows the Kongs to transform all onscreen enemies into extra lives, recovery hearts, or Banana Coins. It takes two characters to pull off the move, though, so Donkey Kong is out of luck if he's by himself. Funky Kong can't use it at all. |

Jungle Jazz: The jazzy Rocket Barrel is back from Returns, and this time it's actually used in jungle levels rather than just being associated with the jungle-dwelling Kongs. |

Shown Their Work: The Switch version has an Idle Animation for Funky Kong where he eats a banana then uses the peel to shine his surfboard. Indeed, the humble banana peel makes for a great polishing agent for all sorts of surfaces. |
