==Summary==
==Summary==
Glimmer's Galleon takes place in a cargo hold of a crashed galleon. Despite the level's name, [[Glimmer the Angler Fish]] does not appear unlike the eponymous [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' level]]. The level starts completely dark, and throughout the level, [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] must swim into [[barrel]]s because they each illuminate the level temporarily. The area flashes on and off to indicate when the level turns dark again. Glimmer's Galleon is a maze because of the many paths to take and the secret areas hidden behind the crates. Barrels, items, and enemies remain visible in the dark, and a [[banana]] trail often directs the [[Kong]]s to a light barrel. There are two [[Animal Barrel|Enguarde Barrel]]s in the level, both of which the Kongs can enter to transform into [[Enguarde the Swordfish]] for most of the level.

The Kongs begin the level in a dark area with a trail of bananas and a Flotsam in it. If they head east from here, they can find an alcove that contains a Banana Bunch and a hidden passage that leads them to a pair of light-giving barrels, some bananas, a few Flotsams, and a [[Bonus Barrel]]. A small area containing the letter K branches off of this passage. If the primates travel west from the level's beginning, rather than east, they come up to a light-bearing barrel and an arrow pointing downwards that is formed by a group of bananas. If they follow this arrow, they come down to a passage leading to the west, which contains a DK Barrel, a pair of Flotsams, a Lockjaw, and other obstacles. An [[Animal Barrel]] containing Enguarde the Swordfish sits below the Lockjaw in this area, who is followed by a light-giving barrel that the heroes must touch to illuminate the area. A passage is to the north of the barrel, and it contains an arrow pointing upwards that is formed by bananas. The passage allows the heroes to take a shortcut through the level, as if they continue west from the previous light-giving barrel, they make their way through a longer path towards a Shuri, a Flotsam, and another passage that leads to the north.

While they make their way up through this area, they come up to a Lockjaw and a Puftup and then travel to the east, where they can find the meeting point between the shortcut passage and the longer path. Above the meeting point, the heroes can find a Puftup and an arrow pointing to the east that is formed by more bananas. The heroes can follow this area to reach a passage that contains some more Flotsams and another light-bearing barrel. There is a hidden room below this barrel that consists of a few bananas, a Puftup, and a Banana Coin. A Lockjaw is also to the east of this barrel, and it is followed by a DK Barrel, an arrow of bananas pointing farther to the east, a Puftup, and an additional light-giving barrel. Two separate passages are above and below this uncommon barrel; the passage above it leads to a Shuri, another light-giving barrel, and a Flotsam, while the area below it leads to a Flotsam, some bananas, and yet another barrel that brightens the area when touched. The upper passage also contains a quadruplet of crates that the duo can journey through to reach a hidden section that holds two Banana Bunches. The two passages meet in an area that contains an arrow pointing to the east that is formed by a group of bananas.
