Vertigo Verge

Vertigo Verge is the fourteenth level in the Game Boy and Game Boy Color game, Donkey Kong Land III. Located in the north-west of Blackforest Plateau, it is the second level in this area, as well as the first cliff level.

This level takes place in a low mountain range, where Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong must thread their way through a labyrinth of cliffs and rocky ledges. The weather is rainy and rather gloomy, and since the stormy clouds are occulting the sun, the whole level is dark, making small enemies such as Sneeks harder to see. To cross the numerous gaps and chasms, the Kongs will have to cling to vertical and horizontal ropes. However, Klasps and Buzzes will try to knock them off, which is reminiscent of both Kreeping Klasps and Ropey Rumpus from Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, the game's prequel. Many Kobbles, Knockas and Krumples will attack the Kongs throughout the level as well, thus the player should try to keep Kiddy Kong in order to defeat these tough opponents.

Bonus Levels

 * After the letter K, the heroes will climb down a long rope to find another long tightrope. They will have the option to go either left or right on the rope. They should choose the left passageway and head over to a Bonus Barrel. It will blast them to a Bonus Level where they will need to jump along few horizontal rope while avoiding Klasp to collect stars. If all the stars are collected within thirty seconds, a Bonus Coin will appear at the bottom of the stage.
 * After the letter G, the monkeys will make their way down a long rope to land near an arrow, made of bananas, pointing to the right. They should ignore it and continue downwards to soon find a Bonus Barrel. It will blast them into a Bonus Level, where they will need to make it into the end of the stage in twenty seconds, without hitting any enemies. Climbing up a long rope, while avoiding some Buzzes, they will soon make it to a rocky area where they will find more ropes to drop down on. At the bottom of the stage, they will find a Bonus Coin.

DK Coin

 * Shortly after the Star Barrel, the group will find a steel keg near a rope. They should carry it to the area below them to find a Koin with the DK Coin. They will need to defeat the enemy to get his coin. This can be done by standing on the foe's shield, distracting him. Then, they should throw their steel keg into the nearest wall. The keg will bounce back and hit the Koin on the side, knocking him out. Once this is done, the Kongs will be given the DK Coin.
