End of Level Target

The End of Level Target is a feature at the end of every level in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. The End of Level Target is a pulley-like machine with a target and barrel design.

Diddy or Dixie Kong must jump on the target from a high distance to make the barrel go up and smash a prize. The prizes are random and usually cycle. Example of prizes are Banana Coins, Bananas, Extra Life Balloons, the letter "G", or rarely a DK Coin. Upon winning any prize, Diddy or Dixie will celebrate their winnings with a rap & stereo and a guitar solo respectively.

The End of Level Target reappears in Donkey Kong Land 2, except with one major difference: No prizes are awarded from hitting an End of Level Target this time.
