A Plus Barrel has a green plus sign on it, while a Minus Barrel has a red minus sign on it. Plus and Minus Barrels are similar to [[Stop & Go Barrel]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' mainly because they are both used to temporarily prevent an invincible enemy from attacking the [[Kong]]s. Plus and Minus Barrels are featured in the level [[Haunted Hall]], where they appear in midair and on the track rails throughout it. [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] must hit the Plus Barrels to increment the onscreen timer, but they must avoid Minus Barrels, which decrease the onscreen timer. If the timer reaches zero, the Kongs will be attacked by the [[Kackle]] pursuing them. Minus Barrels are more frequent in later ports of the level. | '''Plus and Minus Barrels'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, [[Media:DKC2 Manual 18-19.jpg|page 18]].</ref> (shortened to '''+ and − Barrels''' in an issue of ''[[Nintendo Power]]'')<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 79, [[Media:Nintendo Power79 17.jpg|page 17]].</ref> are types of [[barrel]]s that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.
