Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the lab, use Bananaport #3 to warp down. Climb the ladder by port #2 back to the path. Follow the trail, collecting bananas (46), and two on moving platforms (48). Continue around the castle, collecting more bananas (52).
  2. 2
    Ignore the stairs; head left. Drop down the ladder by the gap in the fencing and go through the wooden door into the crypt.
  3. 3
    Head left at the red Kasplat towards a big skull. Drop down, kill the Kosha, and shoot the Coconut Switch to the right of the skull to enter the catacombs.
  4. 4
    Activate Bananaports #1-3 in the catacombs. Head left at the start, then right. Kill Krypts.
  5. 5
    Make a right, then a left to find Bananaport #2. Grab the banana bunch (57) and shoot the Coconut Switch to open the door.
  6. 6
    Solve the lever puzzle: pull them in the order: top left, top right, bottom left. Dispose of the Krypt as needed.
  7. 7
    Shoot the balloon (67) and enter the mine cart ride. Collect 25 coins. Avoid the Resident Demon's attacks (hands, gravestones, Skull Carts) by switching lanes and jumping.
  8. 8
    After the mine cart ride, exit the room and warp back to the start. Leave the skull.
  9. 9
    Take the ramp opposite the skull and head to the red Kasplat. Switch to Diddy Kong using the Tag Barrel.
  10. 10
    Kill the Kasplat for a BLUEPRINT (2).
  11. 11
    Go to the skull, drop down, kill the Kosha, and shoot the balloon (10) above the skull.
  12. 12
    Shoot the switch on the left and head into the skull.
  13. 13
    Go left, then right, left, right, left, right. Activate Bananaport #1 and grab the banana bunch (15).
  14. 14
    Shoot the Peanut Switch to open the door.
Tips
  • The Super Duper Simian Slam is required to activate red switches.
  • In the mine cart ride, prioritize dodging attacks over collecting coins, as getting hit costs three coins.
  • Gravestones are always positioned behind coins, marking their lane.
  • When dodging the Resident Demon's swooping hand punches, anticipate the initial direction and jump.
  • Golden Banana (1) after the mine cart ride.
  • Blueprint (2) as Diddy Kong.
