This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed soon.

Template:DKClevelbox Blackout Basement is the twenty-eighth level of the popular Donkey Kong game, Donkey Kong Country. It is also the sixth and final level of the Kremkroc Industries, Inc. area. In the Game Boy Advance version of the game, Blackout Basement is the twenty-seventh level in the game, as well as the fifth level of Kremkroc Industries, Inc.

In this unique factory level, the Kongs will face a never before seen obstacle. This obstacle is the broken lights, which will flicker on and off throughout the whole level. This will cause the level to become increasingly difficult, as the monkeys will have a harder time seeing where to go. To make things worse, the level will be filled with many ropes, moving platforms, and even pitfalls, which the heroes can fall into if they aren't careful where they step. Many enemies will also be scattered everywhere to bump into the Kongs when they can't see. With the short moments of bright light, the heroes will have to make their way cautiously through the level. Enemies in this factory level include Kritters, Klumps, Klaptraps, and Manky Kongs.

Bonus Level(s)

• Near the end of the level, the monkeys will have to jump along four falling platforms. Under the last platform, the heroes will notice a lone banana. They should fall down to that banana and then land in a hidden barrel below it. They will be send to a Bonus Level, where they will need to shoot through several barrels around an open area, trying to grab as many bananas possible. This, though, must be done as the lights blink on and off. Once they are done, the monkeys can exit to the right.
• After exiting the first Bonus Level, the heroes will be shot into the main level and break an area of the ground. A barrel will them pop out of it. They should pick up and carry the barrel through the level. After passing a barrel throwing Manky Kong, the monkeys will meet a group of Kritters. The two Kongs will have to set their barrel down and defeat the foe, then come back to pick up the barrel. After that, they will drop down a ledge. There, they should turn around and blow away the wall to the left to reveal an opening. It will lead them to a Bonus Level. There, they will have to watch as an Extra Life Balloon moves around four barrels. Once it stops, the balloon will disappear. If the monkeys choose the correct barrel that it stopped on, they will be given a prize. Afterwards, they will exit the bonus automatically.
