Stage 5-5: Jelly Jamboree

Stage Basics

As you move through this stage, you’ll bounce along a variety of jelly blocks. Purple blocks provide a moderate bounce, but green blocks allow you to reach much greater heights. Blue jelly blocks act as switches—when you bounce on a blue block, look for any nearby changes in the environment. Some of the map’s collectible items are encased inside these jelly blocks. To free a trapped item, perform a hard bounce on an adjacent jelly block.

Perform a Roll Attack into the jelly at point 1 to free the Puzzle Piece trapped within it.

Bounce up and cling to the grassy surface at point 2, then climb to the top of the area.

When you reach the Flower Bulb at the top of the area, perform a Ground Pound to free the Puzzle Piece trapped within it.

The first KONG Letter sweeps back and forth through point 3. When you reach the nearby Barrel Cannon, time your launch to pass through the K on your way to the next area.

The second KONG Letter floats at point 4. Bounce on the blue jelly block beneath the O to alternate between the jelly blocks on the post to the right. When the raised block is in position, bounce over and use it to reach the KONG Letter.

Perform a triple-bop combo to defeat the Puffton at point 5, then use the Barrel Cannon below you to launch yourself to a bonus room.

Once you enter the bonus room, you have 30 seconds to collect all of the available bananas. If you succeed, a Puzzle Piece appears near the center of the area.

The third KONG Letter is floating at point 6. After you reach the nearby checkpoint, use the jelly blocks to the left to bounce up and grab the N.

When you land on the blue jelly block at point 7, the next blue jelly block rotates into the background. Bounce a second time to spin the post back to move the block back to its original position, then hit it to reveal the green block to the right.

Use the green jelly to bounce up and collect the Puzzle Piece from the wooden platform to the right.

As you approach point 8, several bananas appear in the area.

Gather all of the bananas to expose a Puzzle Piece to the left, then use the jelly to bounce up and grab it.

The last KONG Letter is stuck in one of the green jelly blocks at point 9. Move to the block on the right and perform a hard bounce to free the G from the block to the left.

Bop the Tuff Tucks at point 10, then toss the dazed enemy into the nearby sandbag to reveal a Puzzle Piece.

When you reach the platform at point 11, perform a Ground Pound and collect a Puzzle Piece from the Flower Bulb below you.
