Reptile Rumble

Template:Level Reptile Rumble is the third level in the classic Super Nintendo game, Donkey Kong Country. It is also the third area in the Kongo Jungle, the game's first world.

As one of the first levels in Donkey Kong Country, Reptile Rumble does not feature any unique obstacles of hazards that distinguish it from any other levels. It does, however, introduce the new obstacles, tires, which must be used often in the level to reach high areas. The level also introduces a commonly found enemy, Slippa. These snake foes can be found throughout the whole level, in small pits or in large areas on the main path. With them, are blue colored Kritters, along with the yellow and red wasp enemies, Zingers.

Level Layout

From the start of the level, the monkeys must head east and defeat a Slippa. After that, they will find an area with several ledges. Without hitting into any Kritters, they should roll down the ledges and grab the letter K at the end. Once this is done, the Kongs will have to defeat more Kritters and bounce off of a tire to reach a high area. There, they must run down more ledges and hop on another tire. It will bounce them to the edge of a high ledge, where they must jump on a platform between two Zingers to find the letter O. After that, the heroes will need to crawl under a nearby wall and bounce on a tire to land in an area with the Star Barrel.

Halfway through the level, the group must travel down to an area with several tires. They will have to bounce over a Zinger and then to a high ledge. At that point, they should beat a few Slippas in a shallow pit and sneak under another wall. They will end up in a small area, where they must beat two Kritters and also grab an Animal Token. After that, they will have to crawl under another wall and defeat four Slippas. If the Kongs travel a little farther, they will find an area with several ledges, each with a tire on it. They must bounce up on the tires, avoiding a few Kritters on the way. Once the monkeys get to an exit sign, they should walk into a small opening to enter the next level.

Bonus Level(s)

• To find the first Bonus Level, the heroes must head to the letter K and pick up a nearby barrel. Then, they will have to blast open the wall nearest to the K to find an open. Walking into it will take them to the Bonus Level, where they must sneak under a wall and quickly grab an Extra Life Balloon. When this is done, they should crawl under another wall and exit the area.
• When they heroes shoot out of the first Bonus Level, they should bounce up on a few tires to land on a high area with a DK Barrel. If they jump to the left from there, they will land in a barrel, which will shoot them to the second Bonus Level. There, the heroes must shoot through a long chain of barrels, automatically. When they are blasted to the last platform, they will be allow to collect a Banana Bunch and exit the area.
• After the letter N, the monkeys will see a high platform with two barrels. They should pick up one of them and head to the right where they will encounter a few Slippas. They must set down their barrel and defeat the foes. After picking the barrel back up, they should blast away the wall to the right of them and enter the hole to end up in a Bonus Level. There, they will need to use a tire on a moving platform to collect many bananas. When they get all the bananas, they can exit to the right.
