K3

K3 is a large snowy mountain-themed world that appears in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and also the fifth world in the game. The boss found in this world is the evil and scary-like snowman Bleak who resides in the north-east edge of K3. In the boss battle with Bleak, the range throughout it will look like an angry face.

Levels

 * Krevice Kreepers -- Dixie Kong and Kiddy will journey up to the first cliffside level to avoid the deadly Klasps at all costs. They can climb up ropes to gain altitude.


 * Tearaway Toboggan -- Tearaway Toboggan is the second snow themed level in the game, after Skidda's Row. As the name of the level suggests, the Kongs will ride on the Toboggan, up and down the snowy mountains. The gameplay is similar to the Demolition Drain-Pipe level.


 * Barrel Drop Bounce -- This is the third level of the world, and the last level in the game taking place near a waterfall. Throughout the level, barrels fall down from the waterfall making useful platforms to climb to the top of the finish. A crate from Diddy's Kong Quest makes its only appearance in the level.


 * Krack-Shot Kroc -- In this factory themed level, Squitter the Spider is used for the majority of this level to defeat enemies and create platforms using his web. While doing this, he has to avoid a Krosshair aiming at Squitter every step of the way until the end of the level.


 * Lemguin Lunge -- The level is moderately easy, albeit the level is infested with sledding Lemguins, their only appearance in the game. Lemguins are a cross between a lemming and a penguin. These flightless birds slide on their stomachs and can hurt a Kong by sliding into them. They are also vulnerable to the Kongs' jump attacks.


 * Bleak's House -- In this boss level, the Kongs must toss snowballs at Bleak's face, far or near, and avoid Bleak's snowball cannon attack. The blue dot by the left of the screen indicates how far you throw the snowball comparing to which buttons you press on the control pad.
