Tundra Blunda

Tundra Blunda is the seventeenth level in Donkey Kong Land III. It is located in the east of Blackforest Plateau, in the snowy foothills of a mountain range, as the fifth level of the world. "Blunda" in the level's name is derived from "blunder", changed to rhyme with "tundra".

Summary
As a snow-themed level, Tundra Blunda features an icy path and slopes. Like Lemguin Lunge from Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, the level features numerous Lemguins, which indefinitely spawn from the holes in the ground and belly slide toward Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong. Other enemies in the level include Skiddas, Krimps, Knockas, and Niknaks. There are a few abysses that the Kongs can go across by jumping from Niknaks. There are three DK Barrels in the level.

Similar to the previous level, Surface Tension, the Kongs can enter a Bonus Barrel by going left at the very start of the level. The Koin in the level is after the End of Level Flag.

Layout
When the level begins, the Kongs head down a small slope to find the letter K. While walking down the pathway at this point, they spot numerous enemies, and also jump over a few snow-bound houses. After passing many Skiddas and Krimps, they make their way down another slope and cross a small gap. Shortly after that, they are greeted by the first group of Lemguins. The heroes have to dodge the penguin-like enemies and head over a snow capped house. Once they pass a small gap, they need to make their way up the path, getting over a few small chasms and hopping over some house tops. Eventually, they pass a second tribe of Lemguins to find the Star Barrel.

About halfway through the level, the group has to cross a large gap by bouncing on some Niknaks, and then avoid more Lemguins. Shortly after that, they are up to the challenge of passing two Knockas and then jumping over small alcoves in the ground. One of these alcoves hsd the letter N in it. At that point, they bounce on some more Niknaks to cross another abyss and avoid yet another Lemguin tribe. Walking down a small slope takes the Kongs to the area with the letter G, where they have to head up another small slope and jump over some more Lemguins. After traveling over a rather plain path for a while, they can find a flagpole. One touch of the pole ends the level.

Trivia

 * Since the song "Frosty Frolics" from Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! was not included in this Game Boy sequel, the song "Cascade Capers", used in waterfall levels, also plays in Tundra Blunda.
 * In later revisions of Donkey Kong Land III (namely English v1.1 and Japanese), a pit was added after the last Steel Barrel at the end.
