Platform Panic

Platform Panic is the seventh level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the seventh level in the Jungle world. It is the first secret level in the game, and all of the first world's K-O-N-G Letters must be collected to unlock it.

This level takes place in a temple, where each of its platforms do not appear until the Kongs approach the area where it will appear, similarly to the platforms in Super Mario Galaxy. These platforms disappear shortly after the Kongs step on them, so Donkey and Diddy Kong must constantly be moving. As the primates progress, many spikes begin to appear all around the level, and the Kongs also have to start bouncing on the heads of many flying Tikis. Other enemies in this level include Tiki Zings and Tiki Goons.

Puzzle Pieces

 * 1) After traveling over a few of the collipsing platforms, one will pop up with a Tiki Goon. Donkey Kong needs to hop onto the Tiki goon and rise with a boost to the four Tiki Buzzes. The puzzle piece is between the second and third one, and he has to hop on them to reach it.
 * 2) At the first stable platform, there is a pot that can be broken with the hand-slap. It will reveal the second puzzle piece, which DK can easily obtain.
 * 3) The third puzzle piece is a litle past the second piece. There will be three platforms, one being very tall, and the other two holding two platforms - one being very tall and the other shorter. The player must stand on the first platform and wait for it to fall. Then they have to jump to the shorter platform to grab the third piece.
 * 4) The next puzzle piece is farther into the level. The player will find it high up near a hanging platform. They need to hop onto the tire to the right of it, and lean to the left to grab it. But to survive, they quickly need to bounce back onto the tire before it falls in order to get across the spiky platform to the right of it.
 * 5) The last puzzle piece is similar to the fourth puzzle piece, yet now there are three Tiki Buzzes near it. The player must have DK hop onto the tire and spring off it to the left Tiki buzz to grab the piece. They need to either hop to the second two, or spring off the tire to continue on with the level.
