Croctopus Chase: Difference between revisions

Taking place in the depths of a freezing lake, Croctopus Chase is the third underwater level in the game. To complete the level, [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] must navigate an underwater maze. However, with blue [[Croctopus|Croctopi]] chasing them through the narrow passages, it is a race against time. The [[Kong]]s must swim as fast as they can, otherwise they are attacked by the Croctopi. To make matters worse in this level, the [[Kong]]s also have to avoid the other underwater enemies, including [[Chomps]], [[Chomps Jr.]], and the tiny, but mighty, [[Squidge]]s. Luckily, [[Enguarde the Swordfish]] can be found in a hidden area near the end of the level to help the heroes. This is also the first underwater level in the series to feature [[Barrel Cannon]]s.

==Level Layout==

At the beginning of the level, the Kongs make their way through a narrow passage. A Squidge floats past them as the continue to a 90 degree turn in the pathway. Once they swim to the top of the pathway, it leads them to the east, where a Croctopus waits in an alcove. Shortly after passing it, it begins to chase them, soon stopping in a second alcove nearby. Another alcove holds a wobbling [[DK Barrel]]. As the heroes continue down the passage, they come up to a Squidge and another Croctopus, who follows them around a U shaped pathway. They meet another Croctopus at the bottom of the passage, and it chases them north through an area with the [[K-O-N-G Letters|letter K]] in it. An alcove is located at the top of the area, which the Croctopus swims into once it is passed. A passage branches off of it, leading to the left, where a slightly wider area can be found with another DK Barrel.  

*N: The letter N can be found in a narrow passage shortly after the fourth DK Barrel in the level.

*G: The letter G is immediately before the exit sign at the end of the level.

*Once the primates shoot out of the fourth Barrel Cannon in the level, they should carefully swim backwards and travel back into the passage before the cannon (which they could not freely swim through before because the previous Barrel Cannon shot them past it). They can find a tight pathway in the center of the passage that leads into an area with a camera icon. Two Croctopi guard it. If they manage to grab the icon, they earn a [[photograph]] of a Croctopus in the second page of their [[scrapbook]].
