Cauldron Keep

Cauldron Keep is the ninth and final world found in Banjo-Tooie that features the Tower of Tragedy Quiz, save Bottles and King Jingaling. Gruntilda appears in this world as the final boss.

The entrance is found on a ledge in Quagmire, Isle O' Hags and is accessible from either climbing a pole or using Claw Clamber Boots to climb the cliff. The latter is required first, as the switch for the Shock Spring Pad needed to reach the pole is located at the cliff itself. After Gruntilda's Lair had been blocked and abandoned by the witches, Cauldron Keep became their new lair. The entrance to the castle interior is surrounded by a moat of plasma and the main entrance is blocked by blue lasers. The duo must split up and step foot on the buttons to activate the bridge and disable the lasers. The Tower of Tragedy Quiz game is found when first entering the castle. Another door inside leads downstairs to the Gun Chamber, where the duo must use the B.O.B. to restore Bottles and King Jingaling. In the Gun Chamber, the opening where the B.O.B.'s beam blaster is leads to the top of the tower, where a door that requires a number of Jiggies leads to a lift that leads to a glass dome at the very top, where Hag-1 is found. The duo must destroy Hag-1 and defeat Gruntilda.

Banjo and Kazooie must have seventy Jiggies total to fight Gruntilda.

Trivia

 * In Cauldron Keep, there are no stairs going up, but Banjo and Kazooie must climb downstairs to enter the B.O.B. Chamber that emerges them to the top of the tower.
 * Kazooie again breaks the Fourth Wall upon entering the Gatehouse. When Banjo notes that there's no one there, Kazooie replies that the music has changed (into the boss music) and that they'll always end up in a fight when that happens. She proves right, as Klungo literally drops seconds later.
 * If Kazooie meets up with Dingpot with or without Banjo, she will say "I've just gotten my feathers cleaned from last time." But if Banjo meets with Dingpot without Kazooie, he will say "It took Kazooie ages to get her feathers cleaned from last time."
