The vehicular form of transportation in ''Donkey Kong Barrel Blast'' are rocket-powered bongos; due to their aerial nature, the racers are unaffected by the course's grounded terrain, but they move slower underwater and automatically reach their top speed inside a wormhole and when entering a Launcher Barrel. As with all racing games, players pick a character with varying stats, strengths and weaknesses, and race around an obstacle filled course in an attempt to finish in first place out of eight competing racers. During a race, players can obtain [[list of items|items]] from [[Balloon (Donkey Kong Barrel Blast)|balloon]]s and use them to interfere their rivals progress, which draws inspiration from that of the general [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. Additionally, also drawing inspiration from the ''Mario Kart'' series, more powerful items are awarded to racers who are further behind; players in first place are likely to get either the weaker [[Banana Bunch]]es or [[Backward Barrel]]s items, while those near last place may get a [[Crystal Coconut]], [[Mega TNT Barrel]] or [[Quawks]]. When a race is completed, players receive a certain amount of points depending on which position they finished a race in. The player with the most amount of points at the end of the set of races is the winner. | The vehicular form of transportation in ''Donkey Kong Barrel Blast'' are rocket-powered bongos; due to their aerial nature, the racers are unaffected by the course's grounded terrain, but they move slower underwater and automatically reach their top speed inside a wormhole and when entering a Launcher Barrel.
