The Razor Ridge is one of the more difficult regions of Donkey Kong Country 3. Here, dark caves, steep rock faces and underwater passages alternate.
Buzzer Barrage
In the cave you are mostly on the road with quawks. Since he cannot shoot eggs, you have to pick up barrels and throw them on the buzzes.
Bonus #1: Keep yourselves on the right side during the ascent as possible. Below a red and a green buzz lies the bonus barrel.
DK Coin: After the star barrel you will find Koin. The required metal barrel lies above it.
Bonus #2: At the end of the level, a copter appears. Jump on him repeatedly and get carried up to the bonus barrel.
Kong-Fused Cliffs
A burning fuse tracks you up the entire rock face. You cannot take longer breaks.
Bonus #1: As soon as a single banana appears at the right edge of the picture, you should jump up past it.
Bonus #2: Shortly after the N, a striking row of bananas floats in the air on the right. Follow you.
DK Coin: Koin is located in the small cave just before the level end.
Floodlit Fish
Underwater it is almost completely dark. Touch or attack the glowing Gleamin‘ Breams to illuminate the cave for a short time.
Bonus #1: Pay attention to several red cocos swimming on top of each other from left to right. In a niche on the right is the bonus barrel.
Bonus #2: To the right of G, two lurchins or shells move up and down next to each other. Swim under it.
DK Coin: Koin waits at the end of the level.
Pot Hole Panic
In this cave you alternate several times between different animal helpers.
Bonus #1: Once you reach the pool with Ellie, swim to the left. Jump up at the N and leave Ellie during the jump to reach the bonus barrel.
Bonus #2: Later you will be squitter. Build yourselves up immediately in front of the Squitter Prohibition Shield with platform networks.
DK Coin: Koin is located above the target flag. You reach the elevated platform only with a partner throw.
Ropey Rumpus
The rope leads directly past numerous buzzes. Use Dixie’s hovering attack to better control your landing position.
Bonus #1: Take the TNT barrel at the K and jump far to the right. At the bottom of the wall is a destructible place.
DK Coin: Even before the N you can drop down from a rope. Explore the area below the normal path.
Bonus #2: Free Parry and bring him to the end unscathed. At the Prohibition Shield, he turns into the Bonus Barrel.
Boss: Barbos’s Barrier
The fight takes place completely as an Enguarde.
In the first phase, you have to hit the smaller Lurchins so that they hit a wall and then hit Barbos‘ protective tank.
Once Barbos is unprotected, you ram her vulnerable center.
Later, target-seeking bullets appear. Let them hit Barbos and attack again as soon as the tank opens.
In the final phase, you have to avoid the spike trap and hit the vulnerability one last time.
Secret Cave at Razor Ridge
For another banana bird cave, Sprout needs a wrench.
First buy the mirror from Bazaar and take it to Barter. He exchanges it for the wrench.
Then give the tool sprout on the chairlift. The repaired track will take you to the hidden Crystal Cave Summit-Kitzel.
