Tag Barrel

Tag Barrels are barrels that appear in the game Donkey Kong 64. Tag Barrels can be found in every area of the game and are used to switch between Kongs. Before getting any of the Kongs, the barrel has question marks on it. As Donkey Kong finds his Kong friends, their faces will appear on the barrel. The inside of the barrel is black, has a spot light, and has all of the Kongs in it. There are usually five or seven in every level of the game, but DK Isles has ten of these (eight in each level lobby, one in the main area, and one near Snide's H.Q.). A similar kind of Barrel appears in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, where it spins between the DD, DX, & CK emblems (this Barrel only appears in single player, as all DD, DX, & CK Barrels are replaced by the normal DK Barrel).

Trivia

 * When highlighting Donkey Kong or Chunky Kong inside the Tag Barrel, the instruments playing in the background are the ones from the DK Rap (harmonica for DK, timpani for Chunky), instead of their musical instruments they get from Candy Kong.
