'''Kongo Jungle''' ({{ja|コンゴジャングル|Kongojanguru}}, ''Kongo Jungle'') is one of three ''[[Donkey Kong (universe)|Donkey Kong]]'' stages in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. This stage is played in [[All-Star Mode]] when the player faces {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}} and any of his teammates. This stage is also set to return in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' under the name '''Kongo Falls''' ({{ja|いかだと滝|Ikada to Taki}}, ''Raft and Waterfall''). | |||
==Stage overview== | ==Stage overview== | ||
The main fighting area of the stage is a raft stuck on the edge of a waterfall. The raft's bottom is fairly flat but has gentle curves that change as combatants run and jump on it. On either side is a vertical post with two platforms attached to the middle and top of each one. The posts themselves are always perpendicular to the raft, so when the raft moves a little, the post can change its position and thus change both platform angles on the posts. There is also a rock on which a character can stand on. It protrudes from the waterfall's edge on the right side. | The main fighting area of the stage is a raft stuck on the edge of a waterfall.

If a player's fighter gets caught in it, the player can push any button to launch out his or her fighter, who gets launched in the direction the barrel's arrow faces. The barrel also fires out fighters who are in it for too long. The arrow sometimes stops while pointing to the bottom. Characters can get caught in it for too long, causing them to be eventually fired downward and [[KO]]ed. The barrel occasionally stops and spins in place. | ||

If a character touches one, he or she flies off to his/her death at middle to high [[percentage]] (unless [[shield]]ed or [[air dodge]]d). Klaptraps occasionally get caught in the barrel cannon, where they still KO the player if he or she touches them, effectively rendering the cannon unusable. Finally, there are logs that occasionally roll down the waterfall and stop before collapsing momentarily. They give characters a narrow platform to escape to for a few seconds before plummeting to the bottom of the waterfall. | ||
When stage hazards are turned off in Ultimate, the barrel and Klaptrap are removed. In addition, the raft remains completely still when stood on. | |||
When the player fights False Donkey Kong in [[The Great Maze]], the stage resembles Kongo Jungle (except the colors and background are different). | |||

This mode features no specific data within the game, but its gameplay is explained in the instruction booklet. It is only possible with human players, as there are no [[CPU]] commands to cooperate with this type of Melee. | ||
=== | ===How to play=== | ||
Play a MELEE on the KONGO JUNGLE stage and set the time to one minute. Position all players on the rock on the right side of the stage, then fight for control of the rock. The player in control when the time runs out wins the match. | The suggested way to play ''King of the Rock'' is to first set up a 1-minute Melee on this stage and then position every player on the rock platform at the bottom-right. Every players' objective is to fend opponents away from the rock. Anybody who stands on the rock platform when the announcer calls "TIME!" wins. It is fairly low and small, meaning it can be tricky to land on. | ||
