Branching-Tree Roartrack Walkthrough & All Banana Locations
There are three bananasDonkey Kong Bananzaplayers can get in the Branching-Tree Roartrack. Two of these bananas can be found as you progress through the course naturally, while the other is hidden on a secret path beneath a waterfall.
In this course, DK must ride a mine cart and use explosive charges to swap the tracks at certain points. At most junctions, you will be presented with a path that leads into a gold wall or a path that leads into thorns. Don’t waste all your throwables; save a handful of explosives to swap these tracks, allowing you to avoid the thorn paths.
Banandium Gem #1: Roarcoaster Rest Stop
The first banana in the Branching-Track RoarcoasterDK BananzaChallenge Coursecan be found a short way into the level. Jump into the mine cart at the start, collect throwable explosives, then throw them into all track switches as you continue along the track.
Eventually the track will come to a stop and you will be launched off next to the first Banandium Gem in the Branching-Track Roarcoaster level.
Banandium Gem #2: Behind A Roaring Waterfall
The second banana in the Branching-Track Roarcoaster course is not on the main track. Instead, you must keep a keen eye out for a mine cart switch hidden behind the waterfall about halfway through the second half of the course.
Throw an explosive into this switch, which should be above DK in a short, straight stretch outside, and you will be redirected to go through the waterfall and into a secret cave.
Hop off the mine cart, pick up the second, secret Banandium Gem, then jump into the mine cart on the other side to continue to the end of the challenge course.
The secret track that leads away from this hidden Banandium Gem links back with the main track.
Banandium Gem #3: A Roaring Finish
The last bananaDK Bananzaplayers can find in the Branching-Track Roarcoaster track is at the very end of the course. No matter which path you take to get there, as long as you don’t die on the way, you will earn this final Banandium Gem.
To ensure you get to the end in one piece, take care to avoid thorns and take the paths that lead into golden terrain instead. Don’t waste all of your explosives, and you should make it to the end and get this final Banandium Gem safely.
