Candy's Challenge

Candy's Challenge is a location operated by Candy in the Game Boy Color version of Donkey Kong Country. This area replaces Candy's Save Point from the original Super Nintendo version, and Candy's Challenge is superseded by Candy's Dance Studio in the Game Boy Advance release. The objective is for Donkey or Diddy to collect a Banana Coin in each six challenges, one per each world. Once a challenge's Banana Coin has been collected, the challenge cannot be accessed anymore.

Challenges

 * Kongo Jungle: Donkey or Diddy bounce on a tire, which allows either one to harshly jump upon thee three fragile ground patches. The first and third patches hides a Banana Bunch, and the second patch hides the Banana Coin. The exit is on the far right of the Bonus Level.
 * Monkey Mines: Donkey or Diddy play a barrel roulette mini-game, and the objective is to individually jump at all four barrels the moment they depict a Banana Coin, as they rapidly depict Zingers then Banana Coins. If a barrel depicting a Zinger is hit, the mini-game is lost, but if all four barrels are hit when they depict a Banana Coin, the Kongs obtain the second Banana Coin.
 * Vine Valley: The player watches a Banana Coin transfer rapidly from four barrels, like a roulette machine. Once the barrels stop transferring the Banana Coin, the lead monkey must select the correct barrel containing the Banana Coin. If chosen correctly, the Kongs obtain the third Banana Coin. If incorrectly chosen, the mini-game is lost.
 * Gorilla Glacier: Donkey or Diddy has to match the orbiting letters in the correct order; the letter that must be selected flickers and is highlighted red. The controlled monkey first has to spell "CANDY" to gain an Extra Life Balloon, then the word "FUNKY", which revolves slightly quicker, to gain a green life balloon (two lives), and finally the word "CRANKY", which revolves the quickest, to obtain the fouth Banana Coin. If a letter is incorrectly selected, the Kongs lose the mini-game.
 * Kremkroc Industries Inc.: Donkey or Diddy scale blue and white ropes while avoiding revolving Zingers. They fall down the pit or get hit by a Zinger, they lose the mini-game. The fifth Banana Coin is located in the center of the challenge area, on a white rope.
 * Chimp Caverns: Donkey or Diddy has to utilize Auto-Fire Barrels and Barrel Cannons to search for the sixth Banana Coin, which is located in the center of the area. If a barrel launches the controlled Kong into an abyss, the Kongs lose the challenge. The exit is at the far right of the area, along with a red life balloon.
