Master the challenging time trials in Donkey Kong Country's Part 46, including Mole Patrol, Crowded Cavern, The Mole Train, and Jagged Jewels. Get gold and shiny medals!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    4-4 MOLE PATROL
    - Target Times: Shiny 01:30.00 / Gold 01:31.00 / Silver 01:33.00 / Bronze 01:39.00
    - Start in the rocket barrel within 3.5 seconds for gold.
    - Avoid mole miners; they offer no reward in time attack.
  2. 2
    4-5 CROWDED CAVERN
    - Target Times: Shiny 01:55.00 / Gold 01:56.00 / Silver 02:05.00 / Bronze 02:16.00
    - At the start, jump to the wooden platform, let it break, then roll-jump to the rocket barrel. Blast off within 10 seconds for gold.
    - Aim for where blue squeeklies start.
    - After the second checkpoint, continuously move to avoid the giant squeekly's sonic attacks.
    - To dodge the gigantic laser, move to the very top of the screen. The exit barrel appears shortly after.
  3. 3
    4-B THE MOLE TRAIN
    - Target Times: Shiny 01:37.00 / Gold 01:47.00 / Silver 02:15.00 / Bronze 02:44.00
    - Grab the DK barrel before the arena.
    - Immediately roll-jump and hover to the other carts. Repeat this maneuver as each train falls off.
    - Mole Miner Max takes about 20 seconds to defeat; clear each train in ~35 seconds for gold.
  4. 4
    4-K JAGGED JEWELS
    - Target Times: Shiny 00:47.00 / Gold 01:10.00 / Silver 01:30.00 / Bronze 01:50.00
    - The gold target is lenient, but the shiny target is very difficult.
    - Get the DK barrel on the right, roll-jump right, and roll under the first pillar.
    - Jump to the second platform, then to the round platform. Roll under the next two pillars.
    - Jump off the tiki goon onto the round platform below, avoiding the buzzbite. Skip the middle round platform.
    - Roll under the next set of pillars (taking damage saves time).
    - Jump and hover to the round platform with a buzzbite, then to the long hanging platform.
    - Traverse platforms, avoiding traps, spikes, and rolling over the next set of spikes.
    - When spears retract, jump through to the next hanging platform before they rise. Roll-jump through the next set of spears.
    - Quickly cross the hanging platform to the small platform before the next spear. Wait for it to retract, then jump across the hanging platform.
    - At the platform with a vase, use any remaining hits to dive through the difficult section. Jump into the barrel cannon to reach the exit barrel.
Tips
  • For Mole Patrol, short hops and full jumps are crucial. Be in the mine cart within 2.5 seconds for gold.
  • In Crowded Cavern, the exit barrel appears shortly after the giant squeekly stops firing its laser.
  • Jagged Jewels: If aiming for gold only, you can afford to be less aggressive on some difficult sections.
