Barrel Cannons have appeared in every [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'']] and [[Donkey Kong Land (series)|''Donkey Kong Land'' game]] to date. In these games, if a [[Kong]] goes into the barrel, it will either stay still, move horizontally or vertically, or spin around (also referred to as '''Spin Barrels'''<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide. | Barrel Cannons have appeared in every [[Donkey Kong Country (series)|''Donkey Kong Country'']] and [[Donkey Kong Land (series)|''Donkey Kong Land'' game]] to date.

''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide. {{Media link|DKC Guide 20-21.jpg|page 20}}.</ref>). The player can usually blast out the Kongs by pressing the jump button. Barrel Cannons often appear in groups, which often includes their auto-fire variant, the [[Blast Barrel]]; an example of this is in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' level [[Barrel Cannon Canyon]], where Barrel Cannons are prominently featured for crossing wide pitfalls throughout. | ||
Blasting from a Barrel Cannon often requires timing, as the player must take various things into account, including obstacles, enemies, or sometimes even other moving Barrel Cannons. This is to avoid crashing into an enemy or obstacle or falling down a long pit. | Blasting from a Barrel Cannon often requires timing, as the player must take various things into account, including obstacles, enemies, or sometimes even other moving Barrel Cannons.
