Star (item)

Stars are shiny, pointed objects featured in various Donkey Kong games.

Donkey Kong Country series
Stars were first found in the Bonus Levels of Donkey Kong Country 2. In these bonus stages, the heroes had a set time to collect all the stars in the area. Their reward for collecting each one is a Kremkoin. Bonus stages of the same style returned in Donkey Kong Land 2.

In Donkey Kong Country 3 the stars returned with the same function, but in this game the screen before the game starts will say "Collect X Stars!", where X is the amount of stars.
