The '''Lost World''' is a secret area and world of [[Crocodile Isle]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. In both games, the area is guarded by [[Klubba]] at his tollbooth, [[Klubba's Kiosk]], as he was ordered by [[King K. Rool|Kaptain K. Rool]] to do so. The Lost World is the power source of Crocodile Isle. The energy is generated from [[Krocodile Kore]], a temple shaped like a [[Kremling]] head integrated into a volcano in the world's central lake. Krocodile Kore also acts like a geothermal vent from sending out an upward stream of purple, white and blue energy. The Lost World has a variety of climates, including jungles, frozen caverns, and volcanic. There are tall, gray, and white-capped rocky hills that encircle the upper part of the location. Unlike other worlds, each level of the Lost World has only one [[Bonus room|Bonus Level]] with a [[DK Coin|Video Game Hero Coin]] as the prize. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', like the other worlds, the overworld view of the Lost World was redesigned, and shows a wider, zoomed in display of its hosted environments.

The Lost World is accessed differently between the two games. In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can pay 15 [[Kremkoin]]s to Klubba to access a level of the Lost World in each world, starting from [[Crocodile Cauldron]] and ending with [[K. Rool's Keep]]. Since the Lost World has five levels, the Kongs must pay 75 Kremkoins in total to access the entire Lost World. In ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', the entire Lost World is instead by paying 47 Kremkoins altogether at the only Klubba's Kiosk in the world map.

The German Donkey Kong comic ''[[Bumm-Badabumm im Urwald]]'' featured a place called the "Lost Land". Despite being located on [[Donkey Kong Island]], the Lost Land was seemingly the ''Bumm-Badabumm im Urwald'' version of the Lost World, as it is filled with ancient Kremling ruins and it is where the Kongs have their battle against Kaptain K. Rool.
==History==
In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', there is a Klubba's Kiosk in most worlds, starting with [[Crocodile Cauldron]] and ending with [[K. Rool's Keep]]. In each world, [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can pay 15 [[Kremkoin]]s to Klubba to access a level of the Lost World. There are five levels in the Lost World, and the Kongs must pay 75 Kremkoins in total to access the entire Lost World.
 
In ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', there is only one Klubba's Kiosk, which appears on the Crocodile Isle map, left of [[Gloomy Gulch]]. Unlike the previous game, the [[Kong]]s cannot pay Klubba per each individual level, and must make a one-time payment of 47 Kremkoins to access the entire Lost World. The overworld has a similar appearance but still features some differences including: a larger lake, the Krocodile Kore's mouth always being open, and a geyser of energy no longer emitting from Krocodile Kore.
 
In the ending for both games, K. Rool gets launched into the energy flow of Krocodile Kore. He blocks the flow of energy, causing it to build up and eventually explode Krocodile Kore. Diddy and Dixie escape from the Lost World before it and Crocodile Isle sink underwater.

In both games, after the Kongs complete all five levels, the mouth of Krocodile Kore opens, allowing them to enter inside. Additionally, there is only one [[Bonus Barrel]] in each level in the Lost World. The [[Bonus room|Bonus Level]]s now contain [[DK Coin]]s as rewards.
