Dixie recalled a few other times where Donkey Kong and Diddy had the same plan, and every time the two Kongs would never travel farther than the beach. Dixie went to look for them at the beach, soon realizing that it was too quiet for them to be nearby. As the sun set, Dixie went to bed. The next morning, Dixie checked Diddy's place and found that he had still not returned. She began worrying over what trouble that Donkey Kong and Diddy got into. The entire day passed and the Kongs still did not return. The third morning, Donkey Kong and Diddy had still not returned, so Dixie went to the southern shores of DK Island and swam to the nearest mainland at the [[Northern Kremisphere]], looking for them.

Dixie briefly visited [[Wrinkly Kong]] confirmed that she saw Donkey Kong and Diddy pass, but Wrinkly did not know where they went. She suggested that Donkey Kong and Diddy visited [[Funky's Rentals|Funky's beach shop]]. As Dixie left, Wrinkly asked her to search for [[Banana Bird]]s along the way.

When Dixie visited Funky, he was busy working on an invention, making use of the various unusual items in the shop. Funky explained to Dixie that Kiddy was the only visitor that he had all week. He pointed across to Kiddy, who was chewing on an old spare tire. Dixie agreed to take Kiddy along with her, and they left. Funky told them to look out for any random items which he can make use of, and he also told them to visit the [[Brothers Bear]]s for help.{{footnote|main|1}}

As they traveled through the worlds, Dixie and Kiddy encounter different [[Kremling]]s than before. At the end of [[Mekanos]], the Kongs first encounter [[KAOS]], who was believed to be the new leader of the [[Kremling Krew]] at the time. Later during their adventure, Dixie and Kiddy encounter KAOS again at [[Kastle Kaos]], which is at the end of [[Kaos Kore]]. During the battle, it is revealed that KAOS was a puppet of [[King K. Rool|Baron K. Roolenstein]] all along. After defeating Baron K. Roolenstein, KAOS breaks down and releases Donkey Kong and Diddy. It is revealed that they were trapped to be used as a power source.

The Kongs eventually discover the lost world, [[Krematoa]], where they meet the local Brothers Bear, [[Boomer (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Boomer]]. Dixie and Kiddy must recover the five [[cog (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|cog]]s found in each level of Krematoa and return them to [[Boomer's Bomb Shelter]]. Boomer inserts them on a machine, which causes the [[Knautilus]] to rise from the center lake. Dixie and Kiddy enter it and engage in a second boss fight against Baron K. Roolenstein. The Kongs defeat him again, but Baron K. Roolenstein manages to escape again.

After acquiring every [[DK Coin]], the Kongs return to Funky's Rentals, and he builds the [[Gyrocopter]] for them. With the Gyrocopter, the Kongs can access the remaining few [[secret cave]]s to the last of the Banana Birds. After freeing every Banana Bird, they carry the Kongs up in the sky to the [[Banana Queen]]. All of the Banana Birds sing to destroy the [[evil barrier]] that imprisoned the Banana Queen. Dixie and Kiddy's adventure ends with the Banana Queen chasing after Baron K. Roolenstein and dropping a large eggshell on him.

A few of the moves involve both Kongs. The [[team up]] move involves Dixie or Kiddy carrying the other Kong on their shoulders, whom they can throw at another enemy or area. The team up works differently depending on which Kong is held. Dixie cannot move fast by carrying Kiddy due to his weight. She can throw Kiddy at a crack in the ground to break it open, allowing them to enter a small area. Dixie can throw Kiddy to a wall and ride onto him to perform a [[Roll Attack]] involving both Kongs. Kiddy can carry Dixie around with ease. He can throw Dixie farther, although she is not heavy enough to break parts of the ground. If Kiddy throws Dixie to a higher platform, both Kongs can move up to there.

The game features greatly expanded map gameplay compared to the previous and following ''Donkey Kong Country'' installments. Unlike previous games where the world maps consisted entirely of linear paths, ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' allows players to freely move while piloting their vehicle on the overworld or in water section of the world maps. This feature allows players to go off the intended path and explore sections of the map to reveal hidden [[Secret cave]]s. The player's original vehicle, the [[Motor Boat]] can initially only access a limited portion of the overworld but as the player progress and defeat bosses, they will collect items that will upgrade the boat and allow it to reach further sections of the map. The game also features a greater amount of sidequests. The [[Northern Kremisphere]] is inhabited by a number of friendly [[Brother Bears]], who usually challenge the Kongs to bring them an object or complete some task. Completing the Brother Bear's errands will reward the Kongs with hints on the game's secrets and items necessary for 103% [[Completion]].

The game features several items that must be traded between the Brothers Bears in order for the Kongs to collect all of the [[Banana Bird]]s. They are required to trade if the Kongs want to complete their adventure completely. Note that some items are earned from defeating bosses and do not need to be traded with the bears. Below shows the items and descriptions on them, as well as what the Kongs should do with the objects.

[[File:DKC3 Creepy Cavern Knocka ACI Bug Results.png|thumb|The top image shows the glitch in action, while the bottom three images shows the results of the glitch, including a game corruption after a restart.]]
'''Note:''' This glitch only occurs in the SNES, [[Wii U]], and [[Nintendo Switch Online]] versions. It was fixed in the Game Boy Advance version.


===Lose a Life and Continue===
This glitch can be done in [[Creepy Caverns]]. To activate this glitch, the player needs to get to the point in the level where [[Koin]] is and knock him out then they need to continue onward until the find a Knocka behind two Red [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzz]]es. Jump down with the Knocka following, then jump on him and carry the Knocka back using Kiddy until a small ditch can be seen next to a Red Buzz and the [[Boo Barrel]] next to it. Once the Knocka is dropped into this ditch, it will begin to behave erratically, instantly going back inside of its barrel when it hits the wall on the right in the ditch due to the limited space for the enemy. The player can further interact with this glitched Knocka with the steel keg nearby, which can cause additional glitches, such as arbitrarily jumping to the game's credits or irregularity/anti-piracy screens if the Knocka's limbs touches the steel keg, or cause sprites to disappear due to the Knocka being continously hit by the steel keg.
The Kongs should go to [[Koindozer Klamber]]. They need to stay at the right of the [[Bazuka]] near the Koin. Kiddy must throw Dixie above the Bazuka's cannon, making her hop and fall in the abyss. The player can move Dixie and after this, Kiddy will appear.
 
===Rickety Koin===
In many levels, it is possible to attack Koin even with the DK Coin in front it. The player must grab a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]] and take it to a place where Koin is not visible in the screen and throw it in Koin's direction. The player needs to move after the Steel Barrel as soon as it rolls offscreen. The Steel Barrel will be seen defeating Koin.

==Nintendo eShop description==
<blockquote>''Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong have gone missing! As Dixie Kong checks in with the rest of the family, she gets stuck with babysitting duties! But that won't stop her from going on her next adventure!
''Play as Dixie Kong or Kiddy Kong solo, against a friend, or with a friend! Take advantage of each of their unique abilities as they throw each other into action in over 40 levels. There are plenty of collectibles—including Bear Coins, which grant access to the services of the Brothers Bear, and Banana Birds, which Wrinkly Kong has a deep fondness for.
''You can also call on Funky Kong to build some wild vehicles for you to try to get to places that seem far out of reach. Not to mention there are animal friends to fight at your side! The final showdown takes place in a cliff-top laboratory at the End of the World.
''Things could get seriously ugly, so you'd better be ready!</blockquote>
