Template:Level Arctic Barrel Arsenal is the ninth level in the Game Boy classic, Donkey Kong Land. It is also the ninth and final area in Gangplank Galleon Ahoy!, the game's first world.

In this snow level, the Kongs will find many, many Blast Barrels. These barrels are found throughout the whole entire level, and must be used to cross several wide pits. The monkeys should be careful, though, as they will have to keep careful aim, as one wrong move can send them plummeting into a pit. To make the stage even harder, the heroes will have to face several enemies throughout their journey. These enemies include Zingers, Gnawties, Kritters, and Klaptraps.

Bonus Level(s)

  • At the very beginning of the level, the Kongs should jump into the first barrel they see and shoot upwards. Instead of following the banana trail to the right, they should fall to the left. If done correctly, they will land in a barrel, which will shoot them to the Bonus Level. There, the monkeys can cash their Kong Tokens that they collected before for an Extra Life, done by hitting a nearby button. Once they are out of coins, the heroes will automatically be taken out of the bonus.
  • To find the second Bonus Level in the stage, the Kongs must shoot through some of the barrels over the first abyss from the checkpoint. On the last barrel, they should notice a lone banana at the bottom of the screen. If the monkeys blast themselves to the banana, they will land in a barrel. Once it shoots them to the Bonus Level, they must walk across a construction site and grab many bananas, forming together to spell "KONG". When the heroes are done with this, they can exit the area by jumping into a nearby barrel.
