==Summary==
==Summary==
Necky Nutmare takes place in a cave, and it is the last level to take place in one. Its name hints at the numerous [[Mini-Necky]]s and [[Necky]]s who appear in the level. The word "nutmare" is a pun on "nightmare", which references the numerous coconuts that the Mini-Neckys spit out. These enemies are the main hazard of the area, and sometimes even spit coconuts from a narrow crawlspace. The Kongs must carefully time their movements to avoid being hit by coconuts.

The level starts by heading down a few small, stair-like structures towards a lower area containing two Mini-Neckies. After climbing up a nearby ledge, the heroes reach a [[DK Barrel]] and a gray Krusha at the bottom of another ledge. More ledges appear to the right, and some Armies appear from a hill behind the area.  There is a nearby ledge that leads to a platform, where an [[oil drum]] stands. After a few more ledges, they encounter a few more Armies and then a low ceiling with a Mini-Necky immediately following it.  A flat pathway ahead of here leads to a rope that goes to another area, where they can find two Mini-Neckies shooting at them on their left and right sides. The [[KONG Letters|letter K]] sits in an alcove to the left of the rope. A wide abyss containing two Neckies and two ropes lead to a nearby set of Neckies. To the right is a stationary rope that leads to a flat area of land with a DK Barrel and a Krusha on it. Next, there are a set of three low ceilings with Mini-Neckies. The letter O is found after the first of the small passages and a [[Red Balloon|Life Balloon]] after the second. After crawling through the three passages, there is a Banana Bunch, a Krusha, and a [[barrel]]. At the edge of the pathway, the heroes can find the level's [[Star Barrel]].

The next area contains a pathway leading to the left and right. The pathway to the left leads into a dead-end with a Mini-Necky, but the opposite pathway leads towards several [[banana]]s and a small pit. There is a wider pit with another set of Neckies. On the other side, there is a DK Barrel and a small pit that is followed by a gray Krusha and several ledges. A straight pathway leads through an area with several Neckies and an Army.  After this, there is a pit with two moving platforms and one that drops when stood on.  The letter N can be seen and a hidden chain of Barrel Cannons send them back upwards.

Once a nearby pit is crossed, there are a pair of Armies on some small, stair-like structures, which are followed by a deep alcove with a Mini-Necky above it. A DK Barrel also sits in the area after it. If the heroes drop into the alcove, they can find a lower area containing a Krusha and a wide pit with a few small platforms in it. The letter G stands on one of the platforms, while an Auto Fire Barrel sits near another, which can blast them into the area upwards, near the previous area. After this, a sign saying "Almost There" can be found along with a Mini-Necky right after it. After passing another Mini-Necky in a unreachable area, there is a long section of the level with more Neckies and two platforms with one containing the DK Barrel.  After another set of stairs, a gray Krusha appears next to a wide pit with more Neckies. On the other side is a non-functioning oil drum and the level exit.

|Shortly after the Star Barrel are a few platforms over an abyss. DK or Diddy must stand on the middle platform which falls straight down to the letter N. A shortcut of two Barrel Cannons take the Kongs across the rest of the pit.
