Bombs Away (level)
Template:Articleabout Template:Level Bombs Away is the twenty-fifth level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the third area in the Cave world.
The level takes place in a cave, where Donkey and Diddy Kong must ride in a minecart to progress. Unlike the previous minecart level, Grip & Trip, the Kongs jump with the minecart, instead of jumping out of it. Therefore, they must stay in the same cart for the whole level. This level features a great amount of crystals that stick out of the top of the cave. They are not too high from the track, so the primates must make sure that they do not jump to high, or else they will hit into them and lose an Extra Life Balloon. Sometimes, the sharp crystals are very low, so the Kongs have to duck into the cart to avoid hitting into them. In some parts of the stage, the crystals even move down towards the heroes as they ride. However, the main obstacle in this level is the mole that rides in the foreground in front of the Kongs. This foe throws bombs on their side of the track, causing it to break and make more gaps. The mole also throws bombs at the ceiling, which causes crystals to fall and break the track as well. It can also send a giant bomb toward the track that breaks a great part of it. Near the end, a ring will break appart from the track and the Kongs will have to ride inside it.
