Template:LevelboxDKL2 Ghostly Grove is the twenty-third level of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2, a similar game for the Game Boy system. It is also the first area of Gloomy Gulch.
This level is set in an eerie forest, and marks first appearance of the Ghost Ropes. The Kongs will need to time their jumps in order to utilize the Ghost Ropes to their advantage. But, they need to move fast on them, as the ropes might disappear before they get off, thus making them fall. Kabooms also make their debut in this level. Other enemies located in the grove include Klomps, Kloaks, Klampons, Klobbers, Krunchas, Zingers, Flitters and Spinies.
Level Layout
Donkey Kong Country 2
From the start of the level, the Kongs must travel east across the mystical forest. They'll have to climb up a Ghost Rope to reach a high ledge, and then continue on, avoiding enemies. After beating a Klobber, they need to use another Ghost Rope to cross a large abyss. Then, they will defeat a few Klampons and soon cling onto more Ghost Ropes and cross an even bigger gap. When back on land, they must beat more enemies, including the mighty Krunchas, who can not be defeated with just a simple jump. Later, they will have to cross another abyss and reach a higher ledge with the aid of a Ghost Rope. From there, the monkeys must avoid a bunch of other enemies, including Spinies, Klobbers, and Krunchas. Eventually, they will spy the Star Barrel, which they must hit to mark the mid-way point.
Halfway through the level now, the heroes must dodge a Kloak and cross yet another abyss with the help of a single Ghost Rope. They get back on a large platform, where there is a Klobber, who is hiding in a dangerous TNT Barrel. Once the Kongs carefully pass him, they must cross a really big gap with the help of four Ghost Ropes. When they jump to each rope and land on the other side of the gap, they should avoid two Klobbers, one being in an explosive TNT Barrel. After that, the heroes need to jump over a small gap and continue through the forest. They will come up to another huge abyss, and several Ghost Ropes must be used to cross it. Quickly, before the ropes disappear, the monkeys must climb across and then dodge two Klobbers, who are both hiding in TNT Barrels. After they are spotted, the group needs to climb up a couple of Ghost Ropes and get up a higher ledge again. Here, they should watch out out for two Klampons and two Spinies. Soon, they must bounce to several Ghost Ropes and cross a very large abyss. Once they are at the last rope there, they need to avoid the one Zinger above them and get on land again. Not long after they get on, though, the heroes must cling onto some more Ghost Ropes to get over another big abyss. Luckily, however, the Ending Pad is at the other end of this abyss, so once they hop to each of the ropes and get back to land, they'll be able to end the level.
Donkey Kong Land 2
When they begin the level, the heroes must move east and cling onto a Ghost Rope. From there, they need to grab onto the following rope and reach land again. They should continue east then, where they'll have to defeat a few enemies. A while later, they will find a Ghost Rope with the letter K above it, and then have to keep going down the path, where they will find a large abyss. Using the Ghost Ropes, they must climb across it and get to the other end. Here, they need to dodge more enemies, even a Krunch, and cross a small gap. After that, the monkeys must jump up some ledges and watch out form Klampons. Eventually, they will find another abyss, and have to use the helpful Ghost Ropes to cross it. They must be careful, though, as there are a few Zingers in the way as they climb over. Once on the other side, the Kongs should keep going east and dodge more foes. Soon, they will find a Zinger and another abyss. They must jump over the enemy and grab onto the Ghost Ropes above the abyss. When they get to the other side of the gap, they will find the Star Barrel.
From here, the heroes must cross a tiny gap, and move on eastward again. After defeating several villains in their path, the Kongs need to cross another abyss with the Ghost Ropes above it. Here, they will find the letter N, and soon get on the other end of the gap. Here, they must avoid a few more enemies and jump over a Zinger to grab onto another Ghost Rope. Once they are on the other side of this abyss, they need to climb up some ledges and watch out for Klampons. They'll get to another abyss then, and use a few more Ghost Ropes to cross it. After that, the Kongs must simply walk down the path and grab the letter G. The group will then meet another abyss. As usual, they have to climb across each of the Ghost Ropes. Soon, they will get on a big platform, with a Klampon on it. They should beat the foe, and then jump across a small gap. They will find another gap after that, and there is large abyss after it. Again, when they cross this abyss, with the help of the Ghost Ropes, they will reach a platform with a Klampon on it, and then have to get over yet another gap, but with only a single Ghost Rope. Once every abyss is finally crossed, the monkeys will find a spring, and it will take them out of the level.
Secrets
Donkey Kong Country 2
Bonus Level(s)
Before the Star Barrel, the heroes will see two Krunchas standing near each other. There should be a banana on the wall next to the one on the left. If they pick up the barrel from a nearby Klobber, they can break open this wall, and be taken to the Bonus Level. Here, the Kongs must throw a treasure chest at a red Zinger several times. At some point, the chest will break, and the monkeys can claim theKremkoin that comes out of it.
Near the end of the level, the monkeys will see two Ghost Ropes appearing and disappearing at a very fast speed. With Dixie Kong, the heroes must climb up these ropes. If the ropes disappear when they are on, Dixie can just flutter in the air and wait for them to reappear, instead of falling. Soon, the Kongs should be able to enter the Bonus Barrel. In it's Bonus Level, they must cross a huge abyss, using the Ghost Ropes. When they get to the other side of the gap, they'll find the Kremkoin.
DK Coin
Around the middle of the level, the heroes will spy a Ghost Rope that they can climb up to reach the letter O. From there, Dixie Kong should be in the lead of the two monkeys, and flutter down through the small gap nearby, going to the left. Soon, she will land in a barrel, and it will shoot her to the DK Coin.
Golden Feather (GBA Only)
Right before the Kongs find the two Ghost Ropes leading to the second Bonus Level, they will jump across a small abyss. Instead of going over it through, they should jump through the center. They will land on a hidden hook, and also grab the Golden Feather.
Photograph (GBA Only)
At the beginning of the level, the heroes will see a Kloak hovering above them. Once the enemy leaves, they should use their Team-up move and throw a monkey onto the area above them. There, they will find a photograph, which will help fill up the Kongs' scrapbook.
Donkey Kong Land 2
Bonus Level(s)
A while after the Star Barrel, the monkeys will have to climb up a few ledges with Klampons lurking about. Soon, they will get to an abyss, where they will see a Zinger in between some Ghost Ropes, flying up and down. They should also notice a trail of bananas going downwards into the abyss. They must follow the trail, and land into the hidden Bonus Barrel. Once they are in the Bonus Level, they need to jump over another Zinger and begin climbing across a large abyss, with the help of Ghost Ropes. When they get to the other side of the gap, they can grab the Kremkoin.
DK Coin
At the end of the level, the Kongs will see a spring, and, as stated before, it will bounce them out of the level. But, instead of jumping on it, the monkeys should go past it, where they can climb up a hidden Ghost Rope and snatch away the DK Coin.
