'''Homecoming Hijinxs''' is the first level of [[Donkey Kong Island]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. Corresponding to the [[Jungle]] level from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', it takes place in stone architects and icy rocks inside the frozen jungle, near to Donkey Kong's house.
'''Homecoming Hijinxs''' is the first level of [[Donkey Kong Island]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. This level is reminiscent of the [[Jungle]] levels of ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', but it is covered in ice due to the invasion of the [[Snowmad]]s on the island. The level takes place near [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong's]] house, which can be seen in the background at the entrance. The terrain here is too icy to maintain traction and is among many other ice-related obstacles. For example, many of the ice platforms in the level crumble if jumped on more than twice, and objects such as [[Barrel Cannon]]s and climbable, vine-covered walls are often connected to crumbling ice structures. On many occasions, the [[Kong]]s must remain in the Barrel Cannons until the ice breaks and aims the barrels in the correct direction, or they must hold onto the crumbling walls until the vines slide toward a platform that the Kongs can reach. The level also features areas where the Kongs must climb the walls quickly, before the vines slide into an abyss. Alongside these obstacles, enemies here include [[Tuck]]s, [[Pointy Tuck]]s, [[Hootz]], [[Blue Hootz]], and [[Archy|Archies]].
 
The music selection for this area is titled "Snowmads Theme."
