Mast Blast

As you progress through the start of this level, you shoot to the back stony slopes where a Tiki Torch is waiting. Move to the left and jump over to a small platform containing a dandelion. Blow on the flower to release the first Puzzle Piece.

Head to the right, and as you are sliding down a slope, jump off and grab the K KONG letter to begin your K-O-N-G collection.

Upon arriving on the beach, go past the checkpoint until some Snippys appear; then run to the left. Wait for the Snippys and bounce on them to reach the top of the stack of three crates. Pound them to find a Puzzle Piece inside.

Head to the checkpoint’s right, and pound a long crate to snag the Puzzle Piece hidden beneath it.

Keep going as the pirate ships start firing cannonballs at you. Jump onto the crate of explosives, and leap up to get the O KONG letter before a cannonball destroys the crate and makes this task impossible. Continue to the spot where there are a couple crates. Stand on them until a cannonball heads your way and then move. Once the crates are destroyed, jump down into the barrel and shoot yourself into one of the pirate ships.

Head to the top deck and then to the right. At the checkpoint, pound on the trapdoor to the left to enter an area on the ship. Go left to find the N KONG letter. Return to the checkpoint.

After shooting yourself onto another ship, roll to the right through some debris and down onto the main deck. Stand on a couple long crates of explosives and wait for cannonballs to blow them up. Then drop into a bonus area. Clear it out and get the Puzzle Piece.

Head back to the left and then jump onto a grassy mast. Climb to the right and jump into a barrel that will shoot you onto a tippy mast. Let it tilt one way and then run the other way to jump up and grab another grassy mast. Climb to the side to get the G KONG letter.

After getting the G KONG letter, leap to the right and go to the front of the ship. You must jump to the higher level to reach the end of the ship. In order to get high enough, wait until a Snippys moves toward you, then jump onto it. Next, jump off of it to reach the higher platform. Go to the far right to find the next Puzzle Piece; then make your way back up onto the masts.

You shoot up to a higher mast from a barrel to the left, collecting two coins along the way. Hover-jump off the edge to the left to land on the ship’s stern and get a Puzzle Piece. Head right and go up the masts again.

Get up to this mast where a crate of explosives is positioned. Wait for a cannonball to come and then move out of the way. When the crate blows, it will reveal a Puzzle Piece. Grab it and then climb to the top. You will be taken to the Slot-Machine Barrel where you can complete the level.
