Da Vine Climb

Da Vine Climb is a Donkey Kong minigame found in Mario Party 5. The name is a play on "divine climb."

Gameplay
This is one of the three Donkey Kong minigames. It consists of climbing vines and collecting bananas in the process. The main obstacle is the several spiders located in the vines. Making contact with a spider will temporarily stun the player. Since the game is only ten seconds long, this is a great disadvantage.

Like all Donkey Kong minigames, this is a coin-collecting minigame. Each small banana awards one, two, or three coins, while banana bunches awards the player five, ten, or fifteen coins.

The background features a treetop wooden house, which belongs to Donkey Kong. He can be seen climbing a ladder and dancing or doing some kind of gesture on the house's balcony when he gets there. The whole minigame takes place in a jungle, a staple for DK minigames.
