Crest

A Crest is a collectible item in Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat. Donkey Kong will get some crests at the end of each Kingdom. The number of crests he gets depends on how many Bananas or beats he collects during the kingdom and the total number must be carried over to the Sacred Tree for an offering at the end of the kingdom. For defeating a boss, he will get a bronze crest. If he gets 400 beats, he will get a bronze and silver crest. If he gets 800 or more, he will get bronze, silver, and gold. If he gets 1,200 or more, he will get all that and a platinum crest that will appear from the sky.

The highest crest Donkey Kong will get at the end of the kingdom is displayed as the color of his health bar.

To beat the game it is not necessary to get all Crests-it is only necessary to get all bronze, silver and gold crests. The platinum crest is optional.
