Torchlight Trouble

Torchlight Trouble is the twenty-first level of the Super Nintendo game Donkey Kong Country. It is also he fifth level of the Gorilla Glacier area. It is the only level in Donkey Kong Country to feature Squawks the Parrot.

This is one of the most unique cave levels in the game, as it welcomes a new hazard, darkness. Throughout the whole level, the area will be pitch black, too dark for the Kongs to see. Luckily, the Animal Buddy, Squawks the Parrot will appear with his bright torchlight to shed light around the cave. When this is done, the monkeys will be able to see some of the cave, although the areas behind and above them will remain dark, causing quite a challenge to the level. As the heroes are guided by a narrow ray of light, they will be greeted by the enemies, Klumps, Krushas, and Mincers. Alongside all these foes are Oil Drums, which serve as a hard-to-avoid obstacle with their flames.
