Latest appearance Donkey Kong Country Returns HD (2025)

Puzzle Pieces appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns (as well as its Nintendo 3DS port and its Nintendo Switch port) and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (as well as its Nintendo Switch port) as items with a shiny curved orange appearance. There are either five, seven, or nine hidden in every level, except for boss fights. Most Puzzle Pieces directly appear in hidden parts of a level itself, but a few are obtained if the Kongs collect every item within a bonus room before the time runs out. On the results screen, after the player completes a level, the gathered Puzzle Pieces individually make up an image. The entire picture is revealed when the Kongs obtain every Puzzle Piece. From the world map, an icon of a Puzzle Piece also appears on a selected level if the Kongs have collected every one in the level itself. When the Kongs obtain every Puzzle Piece in a level, the player unlocks a new photo in the Image Gallery.
