    In the tar pit, use the tipping platform on the right to reach a climbable surface and find a puzzle piece.

    After the barrel cannon, tip the platform on the right to jump left and grab a puzzle piece at the top-left.

    Prehistoric Path (6-2)
    • Start by navigating sinking platforms in a tar pit.
  16. 16

    The KONG letter K is above a gap, follow the bananas to grab it.

    Duck under spikes to avoid crashing.
  21. 21
    On the second sinking track section, stay on the bottom track to get the KONG letter O.

  23. 23
    In the next area, mix short hops and full bounces off tikis to dodge obstacles.
  24. 24
    After checkpoint, do a full bounce off the first tiki buzz to reach the top track and a puzzle piece.
  25. 25
    Follow with a short hop off a tiki tork and a full bounce off the next tiki buzz to reach the top track and a puzzle piece.
  26. 26
    The KONG letter G is ahead; don't jump when the track breaks to stay low enough to get it.
  27. 27
    After the second hole appears in the rolling egg, do an early short hop over the first hole to get a puzzle piece.
  28. 28
    To the right of the exit barrel, ground-pound the cactus for a puzzle piece.
Tips
  • If you fall in tar, you will become slow and unable to jump high. Jump occasionally to avoid sinking and losing life balloons. Ground-pound on solid ground to shake off tar.
  • In mine cart sections, jump off sinking track sections to stay above the tar.
  • In the rolling egg section, jump over gaps and spikes that appear.
  • Use short hops and full bounces off tikis strategically to navigate obstacles.
