Stage 6-5: Forest Folly

Stage Basics

As you move through this stage, take care to avoid the large snowflakes floating through the air. These slow-moving obstacles move along predetermined paths. Whenever possible, take a moment to observe a cluster of snowflakes before you attempt to slip past them. Many of the springboards scattered throughout the map tilt between various positions—wait until you’re aimed in the desired direction, then perform a Ground Pound to launch yourself off of the springboard.

Stand near the large flower at point 1 and perform a Ground Pound to release a cluster of bananas. Collect all of the bananas before they vanish to reveal a Puzzle Piece.

The first KONG Letter is floating at point 2. Stand on the nearby platform and watch the snowflakes as they drift through the area. When you see an opening, jump up and grab the K on your way to the next platform.

When you reach the large wheel at point 3, position yourself along its right edge and locate the nearby KONG Letter. As the wheel rolls down the tracks, climb along its grassy surface to maintain your position. After you collect the O, climb to the top of the wheel and jump to the platform above you.

Cling to the springboard at point 4 until it tilts to the left. When it does, perform a Ground Pound to bounce into a secret Barrel Cannon, then use 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.

As you move across the vines at point 5, collect all of the nearby bananas to reveal a Puzzle Piece.

When you reach the springboard at point 6, the third KONG Letter appears to the right. Wait for the N to move into position, then Ground Pound the springboard to launch yourself through the KONG Letter and into the nearby Barrel Cannon.

When you reach the Barrel Cannon at point 7, a Puzzle Piece appears near the bottom of the area. As it moves into your path, launch yourself through the Puzzle Piece and into the next Barrel Cannon.

Stand near the basket of fish located at point 8, then perform a Ground Pound to release a flying banana.

As the flying banana circles the area, collect all of the items trailing behind it to earn a Puzzle Piece.

Tip

It’s much easier to earn this Puzzle Piece if you defeat the nearby Fish Poker Pops before you free the flying banana.

The last KONG Letter hovers at point 9. Stand on the nearby platform and Barrel Roll Jump through the G. The available landing spot is fairly small, so time your jump carefully.
