'''Spiral Mountain''' is a recurring location in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].
'''Spiral Mountain''' is a world featured in every game in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]] so far. It gets its name from the large spiral shaped mountain at its center that is surrounded by a moat. In [[Banjo-Tooie]], the grasses were destroyed by [[Gruntilda Winkybunion]] and her sister's minions.


Players start off here in all three of the main games where it acts like a tutorial for new players to the game, teaching them basic [[controls]] and moves to help them through the game. [[Banjo]] lives at the base of Spiral Mountain along with [[Kazooie]], and [[Tooty]]. [[Gruntilda]] also lived here prior to the events of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.
==Features and overview==
Spiral Mountain is a location named after its main landmark of a large spiraling hill located in the center. Spiral Mountain is also where [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] live, as well as Banjo's pet goldfish [[Roysten]]. Spiral Mountain is the starting location in every platforming game of the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' series. It is also a tutorial area, where the player is taught basic controls and moves. Spiral Mountain is a grassy area featuring a vegetable orchard, a quarry, two waterfalls forming a lake (an alcove appears behind one of them), a few tree stumps, and [[Banjo's House]]. There is a moat surrounding the main spiraling hill. There is a rickety, wooden bridge connected on top of the hill, connected to a large stone structure of [[Gruntilda]]'s face. The mouth of the structure leads into [[Gruntilda's Lair]].

Banjo lives in a small [[Banjo's House|house]] at the base of Spiral Mountain along with his pal Kazooie, and his sister Tooty. After Gruntilda the Witch kidnaps Tooty, [[Bottles]] the short-sighted mole helps train Banjo and Kazooie in learning some of the game's basic moves.
[[File:Spiral Mountain BK explore.png|thumb|left|200px|Banjo walking around Spiral Mountain]]
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', the game introduction takes place in Spiral Mountain, and is where Grunty kidnaps [[Tooty]]. During gameplay, this is where [[Bottles]] teaches some basic moves to the duo, including [[Claw Swipe]], [[Forward Roll]], [[Rat-a-tat Rap]], [[Feathery Flap]], [[Flap Flip]], and [[Beak Barge]]. After Bottles teaches them the six moves, they must go on top of the spiraling hill, where Bottles repairs the bridge to Gruntilda's Lair. From there, the duo can continue onward into the lair.


====Areas====
From the first [[molehill]], Bottles gives Banjo and Kazooie an option to learn the six moves. Alternatively, by deciding against it, Bottles, provides them with all six moves, and the duo can directly skip to meeting him at the top of the spiraling hill.

After Banjo and Kazooie learn every move (or acquire them from the first molehill), [[Colliwobble]]s, [[Topper]]s, [[Bawl]]s, and [[Quarrie]]s appear as enemies around the location. Contrary to Bottles' training, they are able to injure Banjo and Kazooie.

*Spiral Mountain (mountain)
[[File:B-T Spiral Mountain.png|thumb|200px|Spiral Mountain in ''Banjo-Tooie'', after being damaged by Grunty and her sisters.]]
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Spiral Mountain is heavily damaged by the [[Hag 1]], a machine operated by Grunty's sisters, [[Mingella]] and [[Blobbelda]]. In the opening cutscene, the sisters drill through Spiral Mountain's cliffs, and they lift up the rock that trapped Gruntilda beneath the ground and free Grunty. In an act of vengeance, Gruntilda uses a spell to destroy [[Banjo's House]]. Her sisters release [[Minion]]s and [[Gruntydactyl]]s into the area, instructing them to destroy Spiral Mountain further, and the sisters leave Spiral Mountain. The bridge to Gruntilda's Lair is no longer connected from the spiraling hill, likely because the Hag 1 broke it off. The bridge is hanging out of the mouth of Gruntilda's Lair, somewhat like a tongue. Banjo can use the bridge like a ladder and [[climb]] it to reach the mouth of Gruntilda's Lair.


===''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''===
Spiral Mountain is revealed to be near the [[Isle o' Hags]]. Banjo and Kazooie can access the island by going through a path dug by the Hag 1. In the cave, before Banjo and Kazooie can continue to later areas, they must defeat [[Klungo]] in their first boss battle.

*[[Gruntilda's Lair]] (blocked)
*L.O.G.'s Factory Storage Room (underneath Spiral Mountain and not solid and can only be accessed through a glitch)


==Abilities Learned==
During Spiral Mountain's destruction, [[Roysten]] became trapped beneath a boulder. Later on, when the duo learn [[Bill Drill]], they can break open the rock and free Roysten. As a reward, Roysten teaches them the [[Fast Swimming]] ability.

===''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''===
There are two [[Banjo-Kazooie Game Pak]]s in Spiral Mountain, and by destroying them, Banjo and Kazooie can respectively obtain the blue and the purple [[Mystery Egg]]. Spiral Mountain only has one [[Jinjo]], which is located behind a [[Talon Torpedo Door]].
*[[Fast Swimming]]


===''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''===
Spiral Mountain's melody is generally the same as in ''Banjo-Kazooie'' except for being in minor key to fit the ruination and melancholic atmosphere of the location.

[[File:Spiral Mountain GR.png|thumb|left|Banjo exploring Spiral Mountain in the past.]]
In the midquel, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', the game starts in Spiral Mountain, set two months after Grunty was trapped beneath a rock. Klungo designed the [[Mecha-Grunty]] suit as a way to transplant Grunty's spirit, to free her beneath the rock. Mecha-Grunty kidnaps Kazooie and goes back in time, hoping to prevent the duo from meeting. [[Mumbo Jumbo]] uses his magic to also send Banjo back in time.


====''[[Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''====
Banjo ends up in a past version of Spiral Mountain, which has an entirely different appearance from the present one. Banjo meets [[Bozzeye]], the ancestor of Bottles; by having at least ten [[Musical Note]]s and visiting the next [[molehill]], Banjo learns [[Pack Whack]], which is the only new move he learns in Spiral Mountain.
*Inside Jiggywiggy's Temple.
*In a Shrub near Honey B's Hive.
*Northeast of Spiral Mere, use the [[Golden Feathers]].
*Southeast of Spiral Mere. Use Shock Pad.
*Near the Breegull Beach's entrance, use bill drill.
*Go northeast of [[Bad Magic Bayou]] right where the waterfall starts. There will be a Jiggy in the air. Use feathery flap move.
*Behind the entrance to Bad Magic Bayou.
*Find all 5 Jinjos.


====''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''====
Spiral Mountain is the hub area and other levels are accessed from it. There are two higher areas of Spiral Mountain which Banjo can explore, in order of Spiral Rise and Spiral Mere. [[Jiggywiggy's Temple]] is located at the southeast of the main Spiral Mountain area. This is where Banjo can open portals to the other levels, if he has enough Jiggies. The entrances to the first two levels, [[Cliff Farm]] and [[Breegull Beach]], are in the lowest area of Spiral Mountain. The later levels are accessed from its two higher locations: [[Bad Magic Bayou]] is accessed from Spiral Rise, and [[Spiller's Harbor]] and [[Freezing Furnace]] from Spiral Mere. The final area, [[Grunty's Castle]], appears at the east of Spiral Rise, and a large rock shaped as [[King Jingaling]]'s head appears below, adjacent to Grunty's Castle.
1-6. '''Six of the Best'''
* Talk to L.O.G. at the top of Spiral Mountain
* Complete the six challenges to win the prizes
1. Stay within the crown for twelve total seconds as it moves


2. Move Grunty's eye to the dumpster by Banjo's house
[[Honey B's Hive]] is located in Spiral Rise, where Banjo can exchange his [[Extra Honeycomb Piece|Hollow Honeycomb]]s for additional honeycomb segments to his health bar. The [[Jinjo Oracle]] of Spiral Mountain appears on a ledge to the north of Jiggywiggy's Temple. The five [[Jinjo]]s of Spiral Mountain are purple.


3. Race around the mountain while switching between land, water and air.
There are six enemies in Spiral Mountain and its higher locations, including: [[Beehive]]s, [[Boom Box]]es, [[Gruntling]]s, [[Gruntweed]]s, red [[Spooko]]s, and [[Whiplash]]es. This is the most enemies who Spiral Mountain has of the other ''Banjo-Kazooie'' games.


4. Shoot all the giant floating targets
====Jiggies====
*Found inside Jiggywiggy's Temple.
*Found in a bush near Honey B's Hive.
*Found northeast of Spiral Mere, requiring the [[Wonderwing]] move.
*Found southeast of Spiral Mere, requiring use of the [[Shock Jump Pad]].
*Found near the entrance to Breegull Beach, requires the [[Bill Drill]] move.
*Found northeast of the entrance to Bad Magic Bayou, where the waterfall comes from.
*Found behind the entrance to Bad Magic Bayou.
*Obtained after rescuing all 5 Jinjos.


5. Deliver the three honeycombs from the stumps to the top of the mountain.

*Found near the [[molehill]] where the [[Pack Whack]] was learned.
*Found in the middle of the fire near Gruntilda's Lair, requires [[Ice Egg]]s.
*Found under a ledge in Spiral Mere.


6. Push all the cube-shaped vegetables out of the area.
===''Banjo-Pilot''===
*Between all of these challenges L.O.G. will ask you four trivia questions in true ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' fashion. Each correct answer gives you five extra seconds.
In ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', the Spiral Mountain track is included as the very first course. It is the first course of the [[Honeycomb Cup]], otherwise the [[Pumpkin Cup]] in [[Grunty GP]]. The theme is entirely different from the usual Spiral Mountain theme, as it was originally composed for some jungle race tracks in the 2003 ''[[mariowiki:Diddy Kong Pilot (2003)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]''.  
* All the challenges are included in one overall timer. Earning the Jiggy time gets you six Jiggies. The same goes for Notes and T.T. Trophy.


7. '''Spiral Mountain Showdown'''
===''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''===
* Talk to Grunty outside Banjo's House
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Spiral Mountain is shown to have partially recovered from the damage it took in ''Banjo-Tooie''. Due to landslides, the area is littered with boulders, some of which block entrances to locations in previous games. The bridge to Gruntilda's Lair is missing altogether. The waterfall has receded and no longer flows into the basin around Spiral Mountain, causing it to be overrun by algae and sea grass. [[Banjo's House]] has been poorly renovated and is cluttered with items including Xbox 360's in the interior. (Possibly a joke on how the 360 when heating up can cause it to put, deep red rings on inserted disks.) The fence around the house is damaged in spots and a large garbage bin lays off to the right side filled with wooden pallets, pizza boxes and cases of multiple Rare games including ''Grabbed by the Ghoulies'' and ''Viva Piñata''. Banjo and Kazooie can return to here from [[Showdown Town]] if they have at least 75 [[Jiggy|Jiggies]]. [[Bawl]]s are the only regular enemy in this area. This is the setting of where Banjo and Kazooie engage in a final battle against Gruntilda, and is also where the ending cutscene takes place.
* Destroy all five of Grunty's vehicles using only one vehicle.
[[Mumbo Jumbo]], [[Bottles]], [[Piddles]], [[Jolly Dodger]], [[Captain Blubber]], [[Trophy Thomas]], [[Humba Wumba]] and the [[Jinjo]]s appear here during the ending. After completion of this world, Banjo will be outfitted with a tuxedo and Kazooie with a bow tie for the remainder of playtime even after turning the game off.
1. This Monster Truck is fast and tough, something homing would be fine enough.<br />
2. This galleon stays in the lake, she's in one place - a piece of cake!.<br />
3. Now invisibility is her power, destroy the vehicle and make her cower!<br />
4. This immobile vehicle can only hop, get underneath to make her stop.<br />
5. Grunty's up to her old tricks, she flies a jet-powered broomstick. The broom is very quick and strong, making the battle extra long!
* Defeating Grunty beats the game and sends the witch to L.O.G.'s video game factory, which is strangely underneath Spiral Mountain.

====''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''====

*Gruntilda has cast a spell on the Jiggy Priest. He needs your help in his temple to the South.
*Spiral Mountain sits to the North. On your way there, why not stop by and visit Honey B.'s Hive?
*Gruntilda's magic is strongest here, around her lair. Mumbo Jumbo has done well to keep away.
*Poor little Jinjos. Gruntilda's scattered them in all sorts of awkward places.
