Lagoon Layer

1. First Crockoid Cracked!

You cannot miss this bundle of jewels. After landing in the Lagoon Layer, the three Banandium Gems appear directly in front of Donkey Kong.

Reward: 3 Banandium Gems.

2. Cave by the Cape

Return to the starting point at the Cape. Just below the small water basin is a tunnel in the rock.

Go inside and turn back inside again. Smashes the rock wall or the closed passage. Behind it hides the jewel.

3. Lagoon Smashin‘ Stats

You can only get this jewel in the postgame.

Destroy a total of 5,000 m3 of water in the Lagoon Layer and then talk to Smashintone or Smashintone north of the Cape checkpoint.

You can control your current progress via the collection in the map menu.

Availability: Only after the victory over King K. Rool in New Donk City.

4. Bathing Banana

Follow from the cape the main path towards the reservoir. Shortly after the introduction of the boom bombs, there is a sand or rock face on the right.

Strike your way through it and fall into the water of the hidden cave. The jewel is inside.

5. Shifty Smash: Beyond the Wall

Goes northeast from the Reservoir Bank checkpoint to the cliffs with the rocks apart.

Next to a boom bomb block is the luminous launch object of the Shifty Smash challenge.

Uses the explosive terrain and destroys the predetermined target within time. After successful completion, the Banandium Gem appears.

6. Battle: Stoney, Grassy Goons

Follows the main path from the Reservoir Bank control point. On the right you will find the portal to a combat challenge.

Inside, you must defeat three Crockoids. Use terrain lying around and heavy strikes to break through their defense quickly.

After the third opponent, the jewel appears.

7. A Nook behind Concrete

Near the previous combat challenge, you get to the rotating concrete walls.

Use boom bombs to break the concrete. To the right of the rotating mechanism is a small hidden niche.

Additionally, use Donkey Kong’s handshake sonar if you can’t find the exact spot. Behind the concrete is the jewel.

8. Battle: Both Sides of the Bridge

To the left of the Reservoir Hill checkpoint is another battle portal.

Enter the ruins and defeat six Antickoids within the time limit.

The opponents are on different sides or heights of the combat area. Uses terrain pieces as projectiles to quickly knock out several enemies one after the other.

9. Smash through the Floor

On the high cliff with the water flowing down from above you will find a green metal surface with a square concrete slab in the bottom.

Uses the enemy or explosive material above the plate to destroy the concrete.

Then let yourself fall through the resulting pit. In the small room below is the Banandium Gem.

10. Cranky’s Lagoon Rant

Cranky Kong sits on a small floating platform between the cliff of Jewel 9 and the large pipe system.

More specifically, you will find it behind the right monkey head on the bridge over the Reservoir Hill checkpoint.

Reach his platform, talk to him and listen to his complete tirade. Then you get the jewel.

11. A Real Mouthful

Return to the cliff at Jewel 9 and go one level up or to the right of the Reservoir Hill checkpoint.

In the rock you see a large stone mouth. Strike through the dark sand wall and enter the cave.

Inside the stone mouth hides the jewel.

12. Rest Stop on Roof Road

In the challenge level, follow the first longer hill section. After the first large piece of net you reach a small safe resting place.

The first jewel of the challenge lies directly on the main path.

13. Hidden on Roof Road

Jewel 12 is followed by a further hill section with movable stone walls.

Do not immediately follow the main path here. Move to the left and use the openings between the moving rocks.

Alternatively, you can beat yourself through the destructible material. Behind it lies the second jewel in a secret niche.

14. At the End of Roof Road

Complete the Hangeltrasse challenge.

The third jewel waits immediately before the barrel cannon at the exit and can practically not be missed.

15. Lakeside Low Road

Goes from the checkpoint Reservoir hill below the large rock bridge to the north and then to the left.

There you reach a small platform with two barrels in front of a hidden cave entrance.

Hit through the wall or the floor and follow the small cave. The jewel is at the end of the hidden path.

16. Battle: Swarms among the Pillars

In the very north of SL100 there is a combat portal on a green metal platform.

Enter the challenge and defeat a total of 50 peekaboopoids.

The opponents appear in large groups. Area attacks, roles and thrown terrain are much more effective here than individual fists.

17. Follow the Voided Terrain

In front of the large water container, drop into the pit below the pipe system.

The jewel is initially completely enclosed by void metal.

Follow the trail of the contaminated area through the cave until you reach the responsible Terravoider. Destroy him.

The void metal disappears and you can go back to the jewel.

18. Fishin‘ for Bananas

Near Jewel 17 is a small water area below the large tank.

A salvage monkey can mark you the approximate location on the map.

Walk around the edge of the water tank, smash through the rock face and follow the waterfall into the hidden cave.

The jewel is under water. Use a ground pound or dive down to the bottom.

19. Rise and Rinse

This jewel is located deep in the large water container by the twisted green pipe.

There is a blue beat switch nearby. The skin repeats on it.

This causes the platform with the jewel to rise. Jumps or swims quickly after and destroys the jewel as soon as it is reachable.

20. Placed in a Pipe

Climbs to the large twisted pipe system above the water tank.

Look for the opening from which water flows and climb into the pipe.

Follow the inner path and take the right turn. At the very end of the pipe is the jewel.

21. Shifty Smash: Atop the Pipes

On the highest or middle section of the spiral green pipe system you will find a Shifty Smash challenge.

Activate it and use the barrels or blast barrels to shoot you precisely through the given targets.

If you have destroyed all targets within time, the jewel appears.

22. Battle: Wings and the Wobbly Disc

To the left of the large water tank is the next combat portal behind a earth or stone wall.

In the challenge, you must defeat three flying buzzoids on a shaky platform.

Hit them directly from the air or use the stones they drop as bullets.

23. Beyond the Cloudy Platforms

To the east of the large water tank, you can see a small floating island behind two cloud platforms.

Ship terrain to the shiny material of cloud platforms. This makes them firm and forms a way out.

On the square movable platform at the end, the jewel is in the material.

Alternative: Return later with the Ostrich Bananza and simply slide to the platform.

24. Blasting for the Banana

Below the floating platform with Cranky Kong is a small cave.

Activates the switch there or executes a ground pound on the marked mechanism. This opens up a water basin full of explosive obstacles.

Swim carefully through the mines or blow a safe path to the opposite side.

The jewel is waiting there.

25. Lagoon Chip Exchange

The chip changer of this layer is actually on SL101, although the entry in the collection still belongs to SL100.

Exchange banandium chips for a banandium gem.

The price increases with each already performed jewel exchange.

Availability: Postgame – after the victory over King K. Rool.

26. Landed in Salvager’s Landing!

Defeat the large concrete crockoid on SL100 and then destroy the large void seal.

Jump into the newly created pit to SL101.

Right at your landing point in the Rosthafen, this bundle of 3 is waiting. It belongs to the normal course of the game and is not to be missed.

27. Shifty Smash: A Wall Hanging in Air

After your arrival, turn to SL101 and climb onto the metal scaffold behind the rust harbour.

There is a boom bomb block next to the starting point of the Shifty Smash challenge.

Repeat the explosive material against the floating target until it is completely destroyed.

28. On the Ceiling of the Floor

This jewel hangs at the bottom of the large northern area of Rosthafen.

First, increase the water level of the lagoon to the maximum level by removing the concrete closures of the water pipes.

Then swim under the platform at the fishing village. Due to the high water level you can comfortably reach the bottom and move to the jewel.

29. Over the Thorny Path

Follow the first two conveyor belts and avoid the spikes.

The first jewel lies directly on the main path after the first large section and can hardly be overlooked.

30. Into the Thorny Nook

In the next section, a Conveyor Belt transports explosive boom material.

Take a piece of it and destroy the thorn wall on the left.

Behind it is a small hidden niche with the second jewel.

31. Through the Thorny Walls

Follow the Conveyor Belt course until the end.

Destroy the last large mandrel barrier with the explosive material and reach the exit.

There the third jewel awaits as a final reward.

32. The Salvager’s Stash

Go to the clothing lobby shop in the Rosthafen.

Directly to the right is an inconspicuous access or mine shaft that leads into a room below the fishing village.

Follow the path down. In the hidden room is the treasure of the salvage monkey and thus the Banandium Gem.

33. Battle: Concrete-Wall Clash

To the left of the landing point or near the control point Rosthafen you will find a combat portal.

Inside, two Crockoids are waiting with hard defense.

Use explosive terrain to quickly break up their concrete tanks and then take down both enemies.

34. Up, Over, and Across

To the left of the rust harbour leads further down a path to a long hillside stretch.

Climb from the village to the roof or use brockensurfen to reach the start of the Hangelroute.

Follow the path to the other side and avoid the anticoids.

The jewel lies at the end on a striking pile of gold.

35. Within the Fast-Growing Grass

The jewel hangs just below the large floating island where your jewel finds 34.

The easiest way to reach it is after the water level has been increased to maximum.

Swim under the island and jump to the grid on the bottom.

Go quickly to the middle. The grass is constantly growing and trying to push you off the grid.

Alternatively, a difficult brockensurf jump from above is possible.

36. Hangin‘ on Orangu-Hang Highway!

Return to SL100 and destroy the small Void seal near the Combat Challenge with the 50 Peekaboopoids.

This opens the way to the large Hangeltrasse on SL101.

The bundle of 3 appears directly at the beginning of this new area.

37. Concrete Wall on the Moving Floor

Follow the Hangeltrasse to the end.

Above the exit is a concrete wall. Let the Molevoloid generate corresponding boom terrain and blow up the concrete.

Then walks to the left past another molevoloid.

A second concrete wall is located above the movable platform. Destroy them too and climb to the jewel behind them.

38. Outskirts of the Fishing Village

This jewel is located in a higher part of SL101, which is not reached via the normal village entrance.

Return to SL100 to the area north of the reservoir bank and search the crater-like area with a void seal.

Destroy them and drop down to SL101.

Follow the Hangel route to the small floating platform on the edge of the fishing village. The jewel is waiting there.

39. Crossed to the Kong Elder’s Court!

Increase the water level of the lagoon by destroying the large concrete closures of the water pipes.

Once enough water has flowed into SL101, the long bridge to the seat of the Kong Elder becomes accessible.

Follow the bridge. The jewel lies directly on the main path in front of the Elder’s seat and is not to be missed.

40. The Ship Stern’s Snack

Goes behind the seat of the Kong Elder to the large area with the stacked cargo containers.

Swimming or climbing around the containers to the back of the large ship.

At the stern between the containers hides the jewel.

41. Past the First Scrappin‘ Ground

Use the first barrel cannon and enter the first combat room.

Here you have to defeat two Crockoids armored with barbed concrete.

Bre *first opens their hard outer layer and then turns off the two opponents. The jewel appears after the fight.

42. Lure and Destroy!

Destroy the stone wall to the left of Jewel 41 and enter the secret adjoining room.

There are three armored crockoids and two different switches.

First, use the blue beat switch to align your opponents correctly.

Then activates the tamping switch. The soil yields and the crockoids plunge into the depths.

43. Past the Second Scrappin‘ Ground

After the second barrel cannon, a room with nine armored munchoids awaits.

There are explosive objects in the room. Uses charged strikes and their pressure waves to detonate the explosive devices.

The explosions destroy the enemies much faster than normal attacks.

44. Lift and Destroy!

Once again destroys the hidden side wall after the second scrap ground.

In the next room are two munchoids and a platform made of sticky material.

Work your way to the top platform and activate or trigger the mechanism so that the platform falls on the opponents.

If both munchoids are crushed, the jewel appears.

45. Past the Third Scrappin‘ Ground

After the third barrel cannon, you must defeat five Stompoids.

Stay moving and use the environment to play off their jump and tamping attacks against each other.

Once all five opponents are defeated, the next jewel appears.

46. Wallop and Destroy!

Opens the secret adjoining room after the third scrap ground.

There you will find two armored Stompoids and two almost indestructible Wallopoids.

You should use the Wallopoids as weapons.

Lure the Stompoids among the big opponents and ensure that the Wallopoids fall on them or bump them from their platforms.

When both stumps are done, the jewel appears.

47. Past the Fourth Scrappin‘ Ground

In the fourth main combat room, three Molevoloids are waiting.

Normal attacks are cumbersome. Wait until the rollus codes are within reach and hit or fling them against the molevoloids as soon as they come out of the ground.

Defeat all three opponents to complete the fourth scrap ground.

48. Launch and Destroy!

Enter the adjoining room behind the stone wall after the fourth scrap ground.

Two molevoloids hang on the ceiling. Among them are smaller squeeloids.

Place yourself under an opponent and make an upward strike. This will throw the squeeloids up directly against the molevoloids.

Repeat this until both major opponents are defeated.

49. Bounce and Destroy!

In the last optional ancillary room are firing devices for heavy iron balls.

Above you hangs a thorny platform with three armored crockoids.

Uses charged strokes to hurl the iron balls upwards over the pyramidal elevations.

Hit the platform or opponents until all three crockoids fall off or are destroyed.

50. Past the Fifth Scrappin‘ Ground

In the fifth and final main area you will find a huge iron ball and a total of ten armored crockoids.

Use the large bullet to break down the opponents‘ barbed concrete tanks.

Defeat all ten crockoids.

Thus, the complete Kong elder test is done. The final bundle of jewels appears before the way back to the elder.

51. Dripped into Chimpy Channel!

This bundle of 3 is part of the main story.

After your visit to the Kong Elder, you will learn the Kong Bananza. Use them to break up the large void seal and uncover the way to SL102.

Jump down. Right at your landing point in the seabed passage, the three jewels are waiting.

52. Pop and Destroy

Activate the Kong Bananza and enter the Balloon Party.

Your main goal is to destroy all the balloons in the building.

Some are worn by crockoids. Another hides below the large shooting range – destroys the ground there or hits you down.

If you have caught all the balloons, the jewel appears at the exit.

53. Atop the Concrete Roof

During the Balloon Party, leave the obvious indoor path and climb over the metal parts of the building.

On the roof of the concrete construction lies a hidden jewel.

Get it before you finish the actual challenge.

54. Hung from the Ceiling

Stay at the same challenge level.

Goes inside to the rear right area of the concrete construction. You can climb up on a wall.

At the top is a grid or a ceiling, on the bottom of which Donkey Kong can hang.

Hang yourselves along it. The jewel hangs directly under the ceiling.

55. Shipwrecked Treasure

Return to the Balloon Party entrance on SL102.

Directly opposite is a destructible rock face.

Fight your way through it and you get to an old green shipwreck.

Search under or behind the bow of the wreck. This is where the jewel is hidden.

56. Lagoon Hide-and-Seek

This last jewel appears only in the postgame.

After the credits return to the former boss arena or the large crater on SL102 and talk with search sound there.

Four fractons have hidden around the crater.

Regularly use the handshake sonar to make their positions visible. Some hide in walls or cover themselves with ambient material.

The search with the Elephant Bananza is particularly easy, as you can absorb larger quantities of disturbing terrain.

Find all four fractons and return to Suchton. This gets her jewel number 56.
