Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Guide Walkthrough Island 6: Donkey Kong Island
Stage 6-1: Homecoming Hijinxs
Stage BasicsThis stage contains some particularly fragile footholds; stay alert. Each time you reach a sturdy platform, take a moment to identify the best route through the area. Many of the available grassy surfaces snap loose the moment you cling to them, and while this makes scaling walls significantly more difficult, it can often be used to your advantage—after breaking loose, a climbable surface may carry you toward a hard-to-reach platform or collectible item. |
The thin platform at point 1 is just strong enough to absorb the impact of one landing. If you leave the platform (or hop into the air), returning to the platform causes it to crumble. You’ll find similar platforms scattered throughout the map, so plan your route to ensure that you make the most of these temporary footholds.
When you land on the ramp at point 2, turn around and look for the Barrel Cannon floating near the bottom of the area. When you’re ready, drop into the Barrel Cannon to launch yourself into 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.

When you reach the platform at point 3, look for the KONG Letter floating to the right. Wait for the nearby Hootz to approach, then Barrel Roll Jump onto the enemy and bounce up through the K. After you collect the KONG Letter, drop straight down to avoid the Blue Hootzes to the right.
When you reach the grassy surface at point 4, climb down and grab the Puzzle Piece below you. Move quickly! You must collect this item and reach the next platform before the grassy surface breaks loose and slides out of the area.
|
The second KONG Letter hovers at point 5. Bop the nearby Hootz, drop through the O, and then use the available Barrel Cannon to launch yourself to the next platform.
When you reach point 6, wait for the nearby Harey to approach, then bop the enemy and bounce up to the grassy surface above you.
Climb up to find a chest hidden above the main path, then perform a Ground Pound to free the Puzzle Piece trapped within it.
|
When you land on the platform at point 7, it begins to break loose. Roll to the right to find the third KONG Letter. Hop onto the snow-covered platform, jump up and grab the N, and then leap through the nearby banana coins to ensure that you land on the next available platform.
Hop behind the wood panel at point 8 to reveal a hidden Puzzle Piece. Move quickly to grab this item and climb up to the next ledge before the entire structure falls off of the map.
|
The last KONG Letter is at point 9. Stand on the ledge to the left, then Barrel Roll Jump through the G and up to the nearby grassy surface.
Before you touch the Slot Machine Barrel, collect all of the nearby bananas to reveal a Puzzle Piece. The available footholds are fragile, so make sure you collect the bananas above the platforms before they drop off the map.
Collect the Puzzle Piece when it appears, then use the available Barrel Cannon to launch yourself into the Slot Machine Barrel.
