DK: Jungle Climber levels

Glass Labyrinth is the second level of the second world in DK: Jungle Climber.

Layout[edit]

When the player enters the level, they will find themselves outside surrounded by water. They should jump down into the water, touch the DK Barrel and walk towards the right. The player will then be in deeper water. They should allow Donkey Kong to sink to the bottom, and float into a downwards facing Cannon Barrel. They will then be able to collect the Letter K and multiple gems before jumping into the barrel on the other side. They player will be fired to the right, destroying two Lockjaws. They player must then go back to the left and jump over the Cannon Barrel, and down into the gap to its left, where the player can collect the second Banana Coin (the first one can be obtained later). The player can then head back over to the right and walk into the upwards facing Cannon Barrel. They player should then allow themselves to fall back through the rocky gap, and onto the small ledge with the Letter O. They player should then re-fire themselves upwards, this time landing on the ledge. They can then jump onto the pegs and over to the left, across the wooden barrels and into the Bonus Barrel where they will play a game of Banana Bonanza. Once completed, the player will land back on the rock ledge. They must then jump over the left edge and grab the pegs below. They can then grab the single square set and launch Diddy Kong upwards and breaking the single wooden barrel, obtaining the first Banana Coin (the player will now have Banana Coins one and two). They can then go back over to the far right Cannon Barrel and continue on to the next section.

The player will see Xananab. He talks about the Spirowarp which opens a worm hole. The player must then walk past Xananab, jumping down the gap and into the water. They should walk over to the left, floating over the two gaps with Lockjaws in them. They should then climb up the pegs and onto the ledge, grabbing the device. They should then attack or avoid the Flitter, and jump into the Cannon Barrel. They can then walk over to Xananab, who will use the device to open a wormhole. They can then jump into the wormhole and continue on to the next section.

After going through the worm hole, Donkey Kong arrives in the labyrinth. Xananab then tells DK that he must pay close attention to not get lost and grab the Switch Pegs with both hands to progress through the labyrinth. The first Switch Peg is directly above Donkey Kong's starting point in the first glass room; below the Switch Peg is a DK Barrel, and above it and to its left is the third Banana Coin, which can be obtained by firing Diddy Kong after jumping off a peg. Once DK pulls the Switch Peg down, he is fired from a Cannon Barrel into the next room.

In the second glass room, a mirror appears, causing another Donkey Kong to appear on the top screen, albeit mirrored from the scene on the Touch Screen. Xananab walks into the room, informing DK that the mirror has strange powers and only he knows how to get out of the maze, not Diddy. If he sees pegs on both screens, both DKs must grab the switches on their respective screens to move on; if the areas do not match up, the mirror on top cracks and he must start over. Donkey Kong must then use any of the ice pegs that match up in the second room to grab the Switch Peg and get fired into the next room.

The third glass room contains several Bananas and a vertical arrangement of ice Peg Boards. After grabbing the third Switch Peg, DK is blasted to the fourth room.

In the fourth room are more Bananas and two Peg Board arrays, with two smaller Peg Boards and a wall between them. DK must proceed to the right and pull down the fourth Switch Peg to proceed.

The fifth room contains a vertical arrangement of Peg Boards and single pegs. DK must continue upward and grab the fifth peg to enter the next room. In the sixth room, Xananab returns to congratulate Donkey Kong, telling him to stand before the two mirrors on both screens. Doing so reunites him with Diddy. After pulling down the sixth Switch Peg at the top of the room, they are blasted into the main labyrinth.

The main labyrinth contains glass walls which must be broken through with attacks. Going to the left leads the Kongs to a room with a moving ice platform with spikes on its sides. To the left of the moving panel's path is the fourth Banana Coin, and above it and to its right is the Letter N, which can be obtained by throwing Diddy Kong.

After leaving from the top right and blasting to the top of the previous room, the Kongs encounter Xananab, who tells them that they must search for the Spirowarp again. If they break through the ice panels to the left of him, they can find the Spirowarp at the end of a passage on the right and the level's DK Coin on some Peg Boards at the bottom. After the Kong blast back to the top and return the Spirowarp to Xananab, they can warp out of the labyrinth.

When they emerge from the wormhole, the Kongs return to the water, where they can find some more Peg Boards and Lockjaws, followed by a platform above the water. If they dive in off the platform's right, then walk to the left, they will get blocked off by two walls. They will find the level's Oil Barrel in this space, as well as a Switch Peg; pulling it opens the left wall and releases three Shuris. After defeating then and heading left, the Kongs can collect ten Bananas and pull down another Switch Peg to open the right wall. To the right of the alcove containing the Oil Barrel and Shuris is a smaller alcove with the Letter G. At the end of this area is the exit; below it is the fifth Banana Coin, which can be obtained by grabbing and jumping off three pegs to the platform the coin is on. After grabbing the Banana Coin, the Kongs can use a Cannon Barrel to blast back to the platform with the exit and complete the level.
