Poppin Planks Puzzle Pieces and Letters – Donkey Kong Country Returns HD

Poppin Planks Puzzle Piece 1

In the first few seconds of the level you will pass a couple of crabs and platforms. You can gain some height by jumping on said crabs and then go up to the left to grab the first one puzzle piece in Poppin Planks.

Poppin Plank's letter K

Right after passing the Diddy Kong barrel, look up to see the letter K. You can gain some height with the crab.

Poppin Planks Puzzle Piece 2

After passing a treasure chest with a red balloon, look for a wooden stick sticking out of the ground. Smash it into the ground to reveal a secret barrel that takes you to a challenge room in the ship in the background.

Defeat the crabs inside to get the next puzzle piece.

Poppin Planks Puzzle Piece 3

Go a few steps to the right to find another one of those wooden pegs. Smash it into the ground and a treasure chest will reveal itself with a puzzle piece inside.

Right after the jumping bridge scenario, you'll see the letter O floating to the left of two platforms. You can reach it if you stand on the right platform, wait for the left one to rise, jump on it and grab the letter quickly.

Donkey Kong and Mario must team up

I want a 3D platform game where DK and Mario switch off to complete different stages. They will move differently, have access to different power-ups, and are stuck in different worlds and have to find each other (something stupid like that).

Poppin Planks Puzzle Piece 4

This one is easy; go past the checkpoint and hit the nearby treasure chest to find the next puzzle piece.

Poppin Planks Puzzle Piece 5

Right after the treasure chest, look for a cannon. If you hit the ground near the cannon, it will fire a cannonball at the nearby wooden structure. You can now enter it from the right to find a challenge room.

Grab every object in the room before the timer runs out to collect the last one puzzle piece in Poppin Planks.

Poppin Planks the letter N

You will see the next letter floating in the air as you platform past sharks. Wait until the platforms (ships) are at their highest points so you can jump and reach the tile.

Poppin Planks the letter G

Last but not least is the letter G tile at the last platform segment of the level. You have to pass through some orange sharks (that's when you see the letter).
