Stage 6-4: Blurry Flurry

Stage Basics

Most of your time in this stage will be spent piloting a Rocket Barrel. As you fly through the map, take care to avoid the falling ice and any snowballs that move into your path. Toward the end of the stage, a runaway snowball carries you toward the Slot Machine Barrel. You can smash through most obstacles, but you must perform several well-timed jumps to keep the snowball from falling out of the area.

There’s a bonus room hidden behind the shield at point 1. Follow the main path until you reach the first available Buddy Barrel, then grab it and return to the starting location. Toss the Buddy Barrel through the shield, then head through the opening to enter the 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.

Pluck the handle at point 2 to reveal a Puzzle Piece. A giant snowball lands on the platform every few seconds, so you must move quickly.

Tip

Before you pluck this handle, stand at the platform’s left edge and duck. This allows you to avoid the attack without straying too far from the handle. After you pull the handle, return to this position to avoid the next snowball.

Two rings of bananas are circling at point 3. Fly through the bottom of the first ring to collect all of its bananas, then swoop up and fly through the top of the second ring.

If you collect all of the bananas at point 3, a Puzzle Piece appears just past the next obstacle.

The first KONG Letter is floating at point 4. Swoop down and grab the K as you fly through the area.

As you fly through point 5, collect all of the available bananas to reveal a nearby Puzzle Piece.

After you collect the required bananas, fly up to the ceiling and wait for the Puzzle Piece to appear.

The second KONG Letter is at point 6. Once you’re safely past the nearby snowballs, adjust your position to fly through the O on your way to the next area.

As you approach point 7, the ice drops down to reveal a trail of bananas. Collect all of the available bananas to reveal the Puzzle Piece at the top of the slope.

The third KONG Letter hovers at point 8. Fly up toward the ceiling to collect the N, then swoop down to avoid the jagged ice that drops into your path.

As you approach point 9, five small snowballs bounce into your path. Avoid these obstacles, but make sure you collect all of the bananas and banana coins that appear in the area.

Once you’re safely past the small snowballs, four larger snowballs bounce into your path. Avoid these obstacles and collect all of the bananas and banana coins that appear in the area. If you manage to collect all of the available items mixed in among the snowballs, a Puzzle Piece appears just past a large cluster of icicles ahead of you.

The last KONG Letter floats at point 10. Follow the trail of bananas to ensure that you collect the G on your way through the area.

When you activate the Barrel Cannon at point 11, it launches you into a giant snowball. As the snowball carries you down the slope, use the jump button to bounce over any gaps in the path.

When you reach the end of the stage, move under the Slot Machine Barrel and Barrel Roll Jump across the gap to the right. After you land, Ground Pound the platform’s loose panel to drop 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.
