Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Guide Level Walkthroughs World 6
Tippy Shippy
As you are climbing along the grassy hull of this hanging ship, pound the hole in the bottom left to get several Coins and bananas. Then climb to the right side and jump across to the gangplank on the third hull. Enter the hull to find the bonus area. Clear it out to get the first Puzzle Piece.
The K KONG letter can be tough to get. First climb across on the underside of the grassy mast to reach the checkpoint and pick up the DK Barrel; Diddy Kong’s hover-jump will make this easier. Then head back to the tippy ship to the K KONG letter’s left, leaving the platform below the letter tilted down to the left. On the top deck, move to the far left so the ship tilts left. Then run and jump across the top deck as you go to the right. As soon as you touch the deck, jump again and hover-jump to prevent the ship from tilting back to the right. As you get to the right edge, hover-jump across to the platform, landing on top of it and getting the K KONG letter.
Continue past the checkpoint until you reach a ship with some Squid Shots on it. Get past the first two and pound the stone to get to the ship’s lower deck. Then head left to collect some bananas and the next Puzzle Piece. Jump onto the top deck and make your way across the ship to continue to the right.
When you reach a building with cannons firing out of it, you must time your jumps just right to land on the open hatches. As soon as a cannon fires, the hatch will close, so you must be in the air, hovering near the next open hatch. Make your way across and pick up the O KONG letter along the way.
When you get to the next ship, go to the stern. Look for a banana between the two rear Squid Shots, and drop down to get it. You will also be dropping into a bonus area. Clear out all of the bananas and Coins to earn the Puzzle Piece.
As you emerge from the bonus area, jump onto the grassy mast and climb to the right to make it tilt as much to the right as possible. Jump to the ship’s stern and then run and jump onto the top of the grassy mast to get a Puzzle Piece.
Pass by the next checkpoint and keep going. When you get to a wrecked hull, jump onto the top platform and leap across to get the N KONG letter. Watch out for cannonballs. They will split the hull in two.
Keep working your way to the right. Jump into a barrel when you reach the end of a background area. This will shoot you right onto the G KONG letter, allowing you to finish up K-O-N-G.
Now head left across the ship’s deck. Pieces of the deck will fall away shortly after you touch them, so keep moving. At the ship’s bow, grab the final Puzzle Piece and jump into the barrel to shoot to the Slot-Machine Barrel. Hit it to complete the level.
