Slipslide Ride

Slipslide Ride is the eighteenth level of Donkey Kong Country, and the second level of the Gorilla Glacier area.

The level takes place inside an icy cavern. The Kongs must climb ropes to get around. However, the ropes are frozen, and are therefore slippery. The Kongs will slide either up (blue ropes) or down (purple ropes) the ropes as soon as they cling to them, and they must avoid enemies as they do. The enemies here include Zingers, Kritters, Armys, Klaptraps and Neckys, who are scattered throughout the whole level.

Slipslide Ride is the only ice cave level in Donkey Kong Country, and as such, the only one in which the tune "Ice Cave Chant" can be heard. This level may have inspired the icy levels in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, namely Arctic Abyss, Clapper's Cavern and Black Ice Battle.
