It's time to finish off the fourth world of DKC2 with MORE BEES! 4-6 is Rambi Rumble, and it's another beehive stage. The first half can actually be rather tricky, especially if you haven't gotten the hang of the honey-covered walls. I remember dying a lot on this one my first time through the game.... Just be careful with your timing and don't get stuck in a place where you'll get nailed by a Zinger. After the halfway point, we transform into Rambi and...wreak revenge on the wretched giant bees, since Rambi can destroy them just by ramming into them or jumping on them. Don't get too cocky, though...after a drop down one of the shafts in the hive, the music will abruptly change and you'll be chased by the biggest freaking Zinger that ever lived on Crocodile Isle. The thing is bigger than Rambi! It's not as hard as you'd expect, though; just haul rhino rear to the end of the stage as fat as possible without being careless, stomping or ramming any Zingers that get in the way. Even after you beat this stage, though, your Zinger-related troubles are not over...guess what the boss of this world is? The humongous Zinger that was chasing you! This is King Zing Sting, whom I hope is a transsexual or something, because everyone knows that the leader of a beehive is female, a queen, not a king...whatever. He's actually a fairly tricky boss, too. You'll be in the form of Squawks for this battle. King Zing Sting flies around in a defined pattern, and you have to shoot eggs at his stinger. After the second and fourth hits, he will turn red and shoot three rounds of spikes at you, and after the sixth hit, he will change into five smaller bees and home in on you. At least it's easier to hit him at this point.

After beating King Zing Sting, Krazy Kremland is finished, which marks the halfway point of the game. We have four worlds down and four to go. Things will keep getting more difficult, of course....
