Playing the Game
Travel through the game world and complete levels to collect golden bananas. The more golden bananas you have, the farther you can progress in the game. Enter DK portals to transport to new levels.
Explore each section of the game thoroughly. Golden bananas may be hidden in caves, on top of ledges or behind secret walls. Activate any switches you find to open new areas. Inspect any conspicuous environmental features, since these often lead to new areas.
Use your attacks to break open barriers and defeat enemies. Approach enemies with caution, and make sure you do not sustain damage from them. Every time you are damaged, a slice of your health watermelon will disappear. If the entire watermelon disappears, you will have to restart the level.
Collect any items you find in a level. Collect melon pieces to restore your health and small bananas to earn banana medals. Collect explosive oranges to lob at enemies. Collect coins to purchase new weapons and abilities.
Speak to characters to learn important information and open new areas. If a character offers a weapon or ability for sale, purchase it as soon as you can. Many areas of the game can only be reached with upgraded abilities.
