Footloose Falls

This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.

Template:Level Footloose Falls is the twentieth level in Donkey Kong Land III. This large waterfall, which connects the Upper and Lower Great Ape Lakes, draws its name from the friable rocks - possibly sandstone - that can be found all over the place.

To reach the top of the cascade, Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong will have to keep on their toes, as the rocky platforms tend to crumble when they step on them. Near the beginning of the level, the Kongs will encounter an Animal Barrel which, upon being broken, will release their friend, Ellie the Elephant. This young elephant will encounter many of the dangerous foes, Buzzes, Sneeks, Bristles and Kobbles, though her strong, water-filled trunk can be used throughout the level to defeat them, making her part of the level much easier. A few Booster Barrels and Tracker Barrels can be found here as well, allowing Dixie and Kiddy to reach higher ledges. However, since the waterfall is tall and large, the Kongs will often have to choose between multiple paths. Following the Banana arrows is the best way to avoid dead ends, but finding both Bonus Barrels may require some more exploration. To make things harder for the Kongs, Footloose Falls is infested with various enemies, including Buzzes, Bristles, Sneeks, Kobbles, Kopters, Re-Koils, Krumples and even a single Booty Bird.

Trivia

• Since the next level, Deep Reef Grief, takes place in the depths of the Lower Ape Lake, it can be surprising to notice that the Kongs actually have to reach the top of the waterfall in order to proceed further.
