Complete walkthrough for Part 29 of Donkey Kong Country Returns, covering levels like Clifftop Climb, Thugly's Highrise, and Perilous Passage, with tips for puzzle pieces and collectibles.

Walkthrough:

  1. Clifftop Climb: Use pinchlies to tip platforms. Bounce off a squidly to reach a climbable ceiling, then tip it to lower a puzzle piece.
