Donkey Kong Isles

Isles: Donkey Kong Strategy

In general, try to complete all the Things to Do tasks before attempting to grab any golden bananas - many require the completion of special tasks or ability upgrades to get them.

Important Things to Do

  • Learn the simian slam. At the very start of the game, visit Cranky's lab. Complete the four training barrels in another area near Donkey's tree house. Once completed, revisit Cranky to get the simian slam (press A to jump, then press Z while you're in the air), which lets a Kong slam onto any green stomp switch that has his face on it.

  • Activate the Wrinkly Kong advice doors at the entrance to the Fungi Forest. Upon entering, look for a lever. Use the strong Kong move to pull the lever. Each pull switches to a new advice door.

  • Donkey will need all his special abilities to get some of these bananas.
Five Golden Bananas to Get

1. After Donkey Kong first visits K. Lumsy, he'll reveal a easy-to-see banana in front of the cave entrance to Jungle Japes.

2. The second banana is in the entrance to Frantic Factory. After Donkey learns the Gorilla grab in that level, pull the lever in the room to activate the elevator. Ride it up to a bongo pad. Play the bongo blast on the pad to reveal the banana.

3. On K. Rool's boat, go up the circular walkway until Donkey reaches a chasm with two vines crossing it. Rather than use the vines, drop down to see a ledge with a coconut switch. Shoot it to get to the banana.

4. Go in the entrance to the Crystal Caves. Use Chunky to primate punch two ice walls. The one on the left leads to Donkey's invincibility barrel; the one on the right leads to a lava lake. Switch to Donkey, then run into the passage with the invincibility barrel. While invincible, quickly run across to the banana in the lava lake. Make sure Donkey has enough crystals to do this.

5. The Kasplat's in the entrance to Hideout Helm. As Donkey, play the bongo blast to kill the big yellow-haired Kasplat on the isolated platform. Pull out the coconut cannon and use the sniping ability to shoot coconut switch over the K.Rool door. If done correctly, a walkway will appear. Take the walkway to the blueprint piece and return to Snide for the golden banana.
