Gameplay
In this minigame, the player races with Donkey Kong to reach the finish line.
The player has to pick one of the two bridges to cross. There are four pairs of bridges that lead to the finish line, each pair having a correct bridge and a hidden broken bridge. If the player crosses a bridge and it suddenly breaks, the player loses some time to get to the other bridge. If the player picks the right bridge, they proceed to the second pair of bridges and so on until they reach the finish line. The player must do so before Donkey Kong to win.
Donkey Kong usually takes a while to choose a bridge. Also, whenever the player makes the exact same bridge choices as Donkey Kong, if Donkey Kong's bridge breaks, so will the player's. As a result, the player can potentially avoid falling behind if they let Donkey Kong choose a bridge first, but the player still has to be ahead of Donkey Kong to win the minigame.
