Crowded Cavern

Crowded Cavern is the twenty-fifth level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the fifth and final area of the Cave world.

Similar to Mole Patrol, this level takes place on a Rocket Barrel in a cavern. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong ride on this object throughout the level, shooting between large rocks and boulders. However, the level's main obstacle is the large amount of bats seen around the whole level, who constantly try to fly into the Kongs. These bats include small bats that fly towards the heroes, medium-sized bats that move up or down when approached, and even a giant bat that can shoot lasers from its mouth. The Kongs cannot attack on the Rocket Barrel, so they have no choice but to avoid each of the bats taking up the small spaces in the cavern.
