Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Guide › Level Walkthroughs › World 8

Red Red Rising

This level can be difficult. You have to jump across platforms that rise up from the lava and then fall back down. There is no time to pause during these sections. When you see the K KONG letter, jump past it to a platform, then jump back to the left to get the letter before advancing to the right.

Just past the K KONG letter, you land on a tilting platform. Stay on the left side of this platform and watch for a lava bubble to the left. When you see it, jump off to the left and land on a platform that shoots up from the lava. It will carry you to a bonus area. Collect all of the coins and bananas in order to earn the Puzzle Piece at the end.

As you begin moving up the vertical section of the level, watch for a Puzzle Piece on the left. It is mostly hidden behind a rock, and all you can see is a little corner of it. Jump up on some small platforms to get it.

Char-Chars fly across the area where the O KONG letter is located. Duck under or jump over these enemies as you jump up to the platform and grab the letter.

Stone shafts extend from the sides of the walls and then retract. Be careful not to get smashed as you jump onto a shaft and then move right to get the Puzzle Piece as it comes out from the wall. When the shaft retracts, the Puzzle Piece goes with it, so move quickly to grab it and then hurry out of this spot.

This Puzzle Piece comes out of the wall’s left side as a chunk of rock pushes to the right. Jump across the three small platforms, and quickly drop down to get the Puzzle Piece. Jump up to continue on.

As you jump up platforms along the right side, head left to collect the N KONG letter. You must move quickly, as the level continues to descend into the lava. Grab the letter and keep moving up.

This last Puzzle Piece is located among shafts of rock that come out of the wall’s sides. As before, be careful not to get smashed between two shafts, and move left to grab the Puzzle Piece. Once you have it, jump up and out of the way.

The last part of the level has you shooting from barrel to barrel. The lava is rising right below you, so don’t delay or you will get burned. When you reach this barrel, quickly fire away so you shoot through the G KONG letter. Continue to the top and hit the Slot-Machine Barrel to complete the level.
