Foggy Fumes

Foggy Fumes is the forty-seventh level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the first level in the Factory world.

The whole level takes place in an industrial area with fans and cranes. However, the level is covered in fog, which gives it the same effect as the Sunset Shore level. The fog makes going through the level rather difficult because it obstructs the player's view of the platforms. However, Donkey Kong can blow away some of the fog to reveal the path or even Puzzle Pieces and Banana Coins. This level also has a lot of hidden objects hiding in the shadows. The common enemies here are Pogobots, Tiki Goons, and Tiki Zings.

Completing this level clears the pollution over the rest of the Factory.

Trivia

 * If one looks at the background around the starting point of the stage, one can see the original 25m stage in the background, still standing after all this time.
 * Later in the background of the stage, one can see a Mr. Game and Watch-like figure using his hammer. Incidentally, Game and Watches were a key element of a deleted reto-style stage, as seen in the Bonus Gallery.
 * A crane seen next to the 25m structure has a resemblance to Crocomire's skull from Super Metroid. Retro Studios had previously worked on the Metroid series.
