Muncher Marathon

Muncher Marathon is the thirty-sixth level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the eighth level in the Forest world.

This level begins as any other level. However, after the player breaks a log, Munchers will come out of their eggs and begin to chase them. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong must run through the whole level, avoiding the enemies and the Munchers behind. If they get caught by the Munchers, the Kongs will instantly lose a life. After the Kongs pass the Tutorial Pig, they will need to start moving upwards to reach the Slot Machine Barrel using barrel cannons, while the spiders chase them from below. Enemies found in this level are Skittlers, Frogoons, and Hopgoons.
