Kongo Falls features a barrel cannon you can use to recover from off the stage. It goes back and forth under the platforms. The rotation and movement of the barrel stop occasionally, so pay attention.
Sometimes floating objects are carried down the rapids and wash up on the stage—not only floating logs and wooden boxes, but Klaptraps!
Take care: If you touch a Klaptrap (the red crocodile), you take damage. Attack them to send them flying into your opponents!
When a Klaptrap enters the barrel cannon, the cannon can’t be used until the Klaptrap is fired out. Try not to get hit by the Klaptrap!
The floating logs being carried by the water sometimes get stuck in the waterfall! When that happens, you can use the logs as platforms for a short time.
