Trapdoor (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)

Trapdoors are objects in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and its Game Boy Advance remake, appearing in all mill stages. When walked over, they open, depositing the player character elsewhere. In Doorstop Dash, they serve as hindrances, moving the Kongs back to slightly earlier parts of the stage. In Murky Mill, one can lead Ellie to a Bonus Level if the Buzz guarding it is defeated. In Belcha's Barn, one leads to the actual fight against Belcha. Finally, in Squeals on Wheels, they appear locked along the central column of the stage. Once all the necessary Sneeks have been defeated, the Kongs can fall through each in sequence, taking them back to the beginning of the stage, where a mechanical door leading to the Level Flag has opened.
