Complete walkthrough for Part 29 of Donkey Kong Country Returns, covering levels like Clifftop Climb, Thugly's Highrise, and Perilous Passage, with tips for puzzle pieces and collectibles.
Walkthrough:
- Clifftop Climb: Use pinchlies to tip platforms. Bounce off a squidly to reach a climbable ceiling, then tip it to lower a puzzle piece. Jump right into a gap between squid shots to enter a bonus area. Blow on the windmill for prizes. Reach Checkpoint #2. Use the high road to get the N, avoiding blimp cannonballs. Jump across cannons in the order 1-2-1-2-3. After the next barrel cannon, you'll get the G upon landing. Run left quickly to grab a puzzle piece before platforms fall, then use the left barrel cannon to reach the exit.
