Barrel Cannon Canyon

Barrel Cannon Canyon is the fifth level of the popular Super Nintendo game, Donkey Kong Country. It is also the final level of the Kongo Jungle areas.

In this wild jungle level, the Kongs will find and use Barrel Cannons for the first time. These barrels will be used many times throughout the level, and the heroes need them to shoot over large, wide abysses all over the level. However, as the monkeys blast through each barrel, they must have good aim, otherwise, they will plummet into the abyss below. To make things even harder, the level is filled with many Kritters of several colors, including green, red, and blue Kritters. Zingers, along with the indestructible red Zingers, also appear here, and can create quite a challenge for the Kongs, even in this early level. Upon completing this stage, the monkeys can challenge Very Gnawty and finish the Kongo Jungle world.

Bonus Level(s)

 * Right after the letter O, the Kongs will be in a barrel facing a wall. Trying not to land in the nearby barrel across from them, the heroes must shoot out of their barrel and bang into the wall. If done correctly, the wall will break, and they can get into the first Bonus Level. There, they will need to blast through several barrels, collecting bananas, Extra Life Balloons, and other things. When they shoot across the whole, area, the bonus can be exited through a nearby opening.
 * Shortly after the Star Barrel, the monkeys will find a TNT Barrel. They should pick it up and carry it to the nearest wall to the left, past a Kritter. They will soon break open one of the walls and be able to enter a Bonus Level, where they will end up in a barrel. As it moves them back and forth through the area, they should shoot out of it and grab some special items in one of three rows. After claiming their prize, the heroes will exit the bonus when they miss the barrel below them.
