'''Kongo Falls''' ({{ja|いかだと滝|Ikada to Taki}}, ''Raft and Waterfall''), previously referred to as '''Kongo Jungle''' ({{ja|コンゴジャングル|Kongo Janguru}}, ''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. It returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' with numerous aesthetic updates. In ''Ultimate'', {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}} is fought here for his unlock battle.

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.

Below the raft is a spinning barrel moving back and forth. Similar to [[Kongo Jungle]] in [[Super Smash Bros 64]], If a player's fighter gets caught in it, the player can push any button to launch out their fighter 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.

This stage also features a ''Donkey Kong'' series enemy, [[Klaptrap]]. If a character touches one, they will fly off to their 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. 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. Crates can also come down the waterfall, and will deal 8% damage and weak knockback to players it hits.

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 stage is loosely based on the {{s|mariowiki|Kongo Jungle}} area from ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}''; however, Kongo Jungle does not feature a raging river. In the background of this stage is {{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong's Treehouse}}, which appears on the world map for Kongo Jungle and in the beginning of the first level: {{s|mariowiki|Jungle Hijinxs}}.

At the time of ''Melee''{{'}}s release, ''{{iw|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!}}'' was the only game in the ''Donkey Kong'' series to feature a waterfall. The waterfall in the stage, however, is also a much lighter shade of blue.  
At the time of ''Melee''{{'}}s release, the ''Donkey Kong'' games had no waterfalls until ''Donkey Kong Country 3''. The waterfall in the stage, however, is also a much lighter shade of blue.  


''Donkey Kong Country'' also features {{s|mariowiki|Barrel Cannon}}s that the player can shoot out of, and they can be found moving either up and down, left and right, or diagonally. There are also stationary Barrel Cannons that rotate around. In ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest}}'' there are [[mariowiki:Barrel Cannon#Arrow Barrel|Arrow Barrel]]s that fire at whichever direction it is pointing at. This stage features an Arrow Barrel; however, it moves horizontally while rotating.

*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the stage in which the [[False character|false Donkey Kong]] is fought in [[the Great Maze]] loosely resembles Kongo Jungle.

*Kongo Jungle is the first stage in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series to have fully vocalized music for its background track.
*The platforms sway from side to side a tiny bit. The only effect it has on players is that it could be slightly harder to land on them.
