Open the Lost World with 35 DK Coins and five Watches. Search its six levels for twelve Bonus Coins and six level DK Coins, then finish Bear’s last card rewards. The final duel requires 42 DK Coins and six Watches.
Whiplash Dash
After the first toboggan section, fetch the steel barrel farther right and bring it back to Koin. Rebound it from the wall. After the second ride, aim the rotating cannon right instead of left toward the goal for Bonus 1, a nine-star toboggan challenge. To reach Bonus 2, pass the first bonus barrel on that side route and let the invisible cannon carry you to the fifteen-star challenge.
Kuchuka Karnage
Jump from the third lift toward the lower-right banana and drop into Bonus 1. After the Star Barrel, follow the cannon sequence into the rotating barrel and choose left for Bonus 2, where Squawks collects thirteen stars. Carry the steel barrel beside the goal flag beyond the exit to Koin and rebound it behind him.
Haunted Hollows
Near K, swim above the first Lurchin for Bonus 1 and its twelve stars. After the second DK Barrel, swim upward and jump left to Koin’s platform; use the adjacent barrel against the left wall. After the Star Barrel, pass the DK Barrel over a Kuchuka and continue right to the next Kuchuka. Jump into the hidden cannon above it for Bonus 2. Use Squitter’s web platforms to reach the Buzzes over the gaps.
Rainforest Rumble
Head left from the start and follow the banana over the cliff into the Squawks barrel. Fly left across the large gap to the No Animal Sign and Bonus 1. Immediately before the goal, aim the rotating cannon left for Bonus 2 and its twelve rope-mounted stars. Take the steel barrel at the flag across the exit to Koin before leaving.
Barrel Boulevard
Before O, jump from a fired Bazuka barrel and glide left with Dixie for Bonus 1. At O, cross left over the stepped gap for the steel barrel, then carry it down to Koin. Rebound it from a side wall and jump to turn his shield upward. From the horizontal rope beneath N, drop on the right. Five steps lower, cross the two Klasp ropes left for Bonus 2.
Ghoulish Grotto
The hole beneath the second vertically moving Buzz contains Bonus 1; returning as Squawks lets you clear the Buzzes from a distance. After K and the two Kopters, jump past the cannon to the steel barrel. Carry it past the Bristles to Koin for a rebound attack. After N, enter the second Ghost Barrel above the small gap only when it faces upward. The hidden platform leads to Bonus 2, where five Rekoils must be defeated.
Boss: K. Rool’s Last Stand
Jump the opening low pass, then avoid the bombs from both sides. Use the barrel when it appears and keep to safe footing during the following attack. Later sequences add longer bomb patterns and electrical volleys. Four hits trigger one final central bombing sequence; survive it before collecting the 78th Bonus Coin.
Finish the card rewards before the final duel. After the full collection and victory, the twelve Time Attack results complete the route to 103%.
