'''Switcheroo''' is the fifty-second level in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns ]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', as well as the sixth level in the [[Factory (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Factory]] world.
'''Switcheroo''' is the fifty-second level in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns ]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', as well as the sixth level in the [[Factory (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Factory]] world.


This level takes place in a factory full of [[reversible walls]]. The platforms must be activated by hitting switches on the walls, which are automatically pressed when [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] or [[Diddy Kong]] pass over them. However, only one type of platform can appear at a time, so if the [[Kong]]s want to change the platform that is sticking out of the wall for use, they have to hit the colored buttons placed all over the level to switch the types of platforms. The red and blue platforms are vital to this level, as they are needed to cross the many large abysses around the level. They can also serve as weapons against enemies; if an enemy moves in front of a platform that is not activated, the Kongs can hit the switch to make it shoot out of the wall and defeat that foe. Enemies in this level include [[Electroid]]s, [[BuckBot]]s, [[BuckBomb]]s, and [[Pyrobot]]s. [[Tire]]s also make an appearance as a common obstacle in this level. This level is very similar to the [[Flip-Out Galaxy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

|When the Kongs reach the first Pyrobot, they should head backwards and roll-jump off of a red platform to reach another on the other side of the area. Ahead of it is a narrow passage with two robot enemies and a Barrel Cannon that leads to a Bonus Level. There, the Kongs must collect 47 bananas, two Banana Coins, and an [[Extra Life Balloon]] around two moving platforms within thirty seconds to make a Puzzle Piece appear.

|Immediately after the letter O, the Kongs should roll-jump from the last blue platform to an area of solid ground before the first checkpoint and pass under a wall of switches. If they manage to avoid the switches, they can roll-jump again and go into the line of switches to make a red platform appear nearby. If they Kongs already have the red platforms activated right before this point, they cannot reach this platform due to the wall of switches being in their way. However, if they do make it to the platform, they can continue up blue platforms after hitting more switches to reach the second Puzzle Piece.

|After the checkpoint, the Kongs reach a few red and blue square-shaped platforms placed over a wide abyss. If they roll-jump from the last blue platform at the top of the area, they can reach a metallic platform with a Barrel Cannon on it. The barrel can shoot them into a Bonus Level, where they must shoot around an area with four barrels to grab sixty-five bananas, three Banana Coins, and an Extra Life Balloon. If everything is grabbed within thirty seconds, a Puzzle Piece appears.

|When the Kongs access the second blue platform after the second checkpoint, they should roll jump backwards into a pair of switches to reach a small, red platform. They should roll jump through more switches after this to reach a blue platform with the fourth Puzzle Piece above it.

|Shortly after the letter K, the Kongs come across a bridge formed by a red platform, which is located just above a cracked girder. Just after this is a group of three electric enemies, each placed in front of a small, blue platform that is pushed into the fall. They should hit a nearby switch to make the blue platforms appear, and then head backwards to find that the red bridge platform is now gone. If they pound on the cracked girder that was under it, they break through, land in a Barrel Cannon, and are shot into a secret area with the red switch. They should hit the button to help power up the rocket in [[Lift-off Launch]].
