Gruntilda's Lair

Gruntilda's Lair, also known as simply Grunty's Lair, is a building in Spiral Mountain and the residence of Gruntilda, with its entrance being shaped like her head.

Banjo-Kazooie
In Banjo-Kazooie, Gruntilda's Lair is the game's hub world and can be entered by using the bridge in Spiral Mountain. Banjo and Kazooie are forced to enter it after the evil witch kidnaps the bear's sister, Tooty, in order to steal her beauty. The only way to reach Winkybunion Tower, the top of the lair and where Gruntilda is fought, is by venturing through the worlds inside to obtain Jiggies and complete the Jigsaw Pictures until the entire lair is traversed.

Banjo-Tooie
In Banjo-Tooie, Gruntilda's Lair has been mostly destroyed, with rocks blocking the way and only the entrance left standing, that being where Cheato is found.

"Now you've entered my fair castle, I'm going to give you lots of hassle. Before you can go up a floor, I'll test your brain a little more. When an answer is correct, with button you can select."

- Mecha Grunty

In Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge, Grunty's Lair appears as the final world, with 50 Jiggies being required to enter it. Inside, Mecha-Grunty is fought and, when she is defeated, Banjo is forced to play a quiz. The questions are fairly easy, with them all asking "Where is this?," "Where would you see this?," "Can you beat this game?," "What makes this sound?" and "Where would you hear this?," followed by a sprite, sound or mini-game. After Banjo gets 2 answers right, he has to fight Klungo again and, once he defeats him too, the quiz resumes. After 5 questions have been answered correctly, Mecha-Grunty takes him to Winkybunion Tower where the final battle against her takes place.

Trivia

 * Gruntilda's Lair's theme is based off on "."
 * In Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge, a broken statue of King Jingaling's head can be found in front of Gruntilda's Lair. This implies Gruntilda built her home in the place of the statue.
 * In Banjo-Kazooie, both of the eyes in Gruntilda's Lair can be seen, but in Banjo-Tooie and Banjo-Pilot the left eye is missing. In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, the right eye is missing and the left one can be picked up.
