Liftshaft Lottery: Difference between revisions

'''Liftshaft Lottery''' is the sixth [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' and of the first world, [[Cape Codswallop]]. It takes place in a large mill located in the north-west of the Cape Codswallop map. The mill appears to be powered by tides rather than currents, as its wooden wheel is driven by the waters of the northern sea.

 

Liftshaft Lottery involves walking sections, vertically moving platforms for [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] to jump from, and rope-climbing sections. The Kongs must jump from the moving platforms to progress up into the level. [[Re-Koil|Rekoil]]s, [[Kobble]]s, and [[Sneek]]s are common enemies during the ground sections of the level, and [[Bristles]] make their first in-game appearance in the level. Several [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzz]]es appear around platform jumping and rope climbing sections. Certain areas have some hidden pathways, such as the first [[Bonus Barrel]], which is revealed if the Kongs carefully jump around a Buzz in the way of a path.

 

In the [[Donkey Kong Land III#Time Attack Mode|Time Attack]] mode, Liftshaft Lottery is renamed to "Mill". The Kongs must complete the level under 1 minute and 30 seconds. The Kongs can reach the end goal on time more easily by rolling into rows of enemies, giving them a short acceleration.

|When the Kongs pass the second group of bananas forming an arrow, they can go up a small elevator lift. They must jump to the next area to the left. After the Kongs wait a while, another elevator platform hovers down and pulls them up to a hidden area with the [[Koin]], next to a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]]. The Kongs must throw the Steel Barrel at the wall behind Koin for it to bounce into Koin from behind. Koin is defeated and the Kongs earn the [[DK Coin]].

|'''Collect the Stars!'''<br>Near the start of the level, the Kongs ride two small elevator lifts to reach the third floor. They must jump on the path to the right of the Buzz and travel down it, past two Rekoils, to enter into a [[Bonus Barrel]] at the end. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs must collect 33 [[Star (Donkey Kong Country series)|star]]s within 35 seconds by climbing along several vertical ropes. Each of the stars are in groups of three on the ropes. After the Kongs collect every star, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Bonus Coin]] appears at the bottom of the rightmost rope.

|'''Find the Token!'''<br>After the letter G, the Kongs must continue onward until reaching a gap. From there, they must jump on a platform that carries them up into a Barrel Cannon, which then blasts them to another, and into the second Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs have 30 seconds to reach the Bonus Coin on the other side.  There are two floors, each with two Rekoils. The Kongs must climb a rope, while avoiding a Buzz, to get to the second floor, where they must continue on a left path to the Bonus Coin.
