'''Darkmoon Caverns''' is | '''Darkmoon Caverns''' is the second course of [[Future Fun Land]], the eighteenth main race track, and is the twenty-third overall course in the games ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and its remake, ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''. | ||
The track has two huge loops akin to those in [[Walrus Cove]], although instead of having zippers at the bottom of the slide, they are zippers in themselves. The course seems to be have been battered by [[Wizpig]]'s spaceships, as there are craters everywhere. Some areas have Wizpig's spaceships shooting at the ground. | Unlocking the course requires a total of 40 [[Golden Balloon]]s (39 in the remake), and later 44 for its [[Silver Coin]] challenge (or 43 for its Balloon Touch Challenge in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake). The stage's default vehicle is [[Car]]s, but racers can use [[Hovercraft]]s after completing the course twice or via Time Trials. The official ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website suggested racing as Diddy on this track.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19990128121506/http://www.dkr.com/darkmoon.html ''Diddy Kong Racing'' website (Darkmoon Caverns)]</ref> | ||

After the tunnel, players drive down a rightward corkscrew section of the track, all the while trying to dodge more barrages of the lasers. What follows is a tunneled right curve and then a left turn into a technologically paved area where the racers enter a series of loops. Immediately after the first one the players enter a short tunnel, which consists of a mound and a sharp left turn into the other loop. After this second loop, a final tunnel section going to the right leads them to the finish line. | After the tunnel, players drive down a rightward corkscrew section of the track, all the while trying to dodge more barrages of the lasers.

In the [[Nintendo DS]] remake, the spaceships are removed, and the track is much easier.
