'''Jiggies''', also known as '''Jigsaw Pieces''', are golden jigsaw pieces and the main collectible in every [[Banjo-Kazooie series|''Banjo-Kazooie'' games]]. These golden jigsaw pieces contain a strong magic capable of breaking open the entrances to the games' worlds and are essential in progressing through each game. Jiggies are obtained through completing various missions, helping characters, playing mini-games, fighting bosses, or sometimes (especially near the beginning of the games) found lying on the ground in certain areas. Depending on the game, the number and manner in which the Jiggies open worlds is different.

These golden jigsaw pieces contain a strong magic capable that is capable of breaking open world entrances and are essential to progress to later areas. Jiggies are obtained through completing various missions, helping characters, playing mini-games, fighting bosses, or sometimes (especially near the beginning of the games) found in plain sight. Depending on the game, the number and manner in which the Jiggies open worlds is different.

Every level has a matching portrait hidden somewhere in [[Gruntilda's Lair]]. Jiggies fill in missing pieces of the level's portrait like a [[Jigsaw Puzzle]], and an increasing number is required for each consecutive world. Jiggies here are actually "spent" to open worlds, unlike subsequent games in which only the total amount of Jiggies collected is considered. The very first Jiggy is found right next to the entrance of Gruntilda's Lair, allowing the duo to complete the [[Mumbo's Mountain]] picture and systematically raid the whole lair of its Jiggies, [[Notes]] and [[Moves]]. This is similar to Super Mario 64 (the game that laid base for Banjo-Kazooie and many other 3D platformers) in which one door wasn't sealed, allowing Mario to collect his first Stars to open other worlds and collect more.
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', there are 100 Jiggies, which are used to fill in missing pieces of the [[Jigsaw Puzzle]]s; and an increasing number of Jiggies are required for each consecutive world. Jiggies here are actually "spent" to open worlds, unlike subsequent games in which only the total amount of Jiggies collected is considered. The very first Jiggy is found right next to the entrance of Gruntilda's Lair, allowing the duo to complete the [[Mumbo's Mountain]] picture and systematically raid the whole lair of its Jiggies, [[Musical Note]]s, and moves.
 
Whenever Banjo and Kazooie collect a Jiggy, they perform a victory dance, which ends with Banjo raising the Jiggy and Kazooie gulping it.
 
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', there are a total of 90 Jiggies. Whenever [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] have enough Jiggies, they can enter [[Jiggywiggy's Temple]], where they must play a [[Jiggywiggy's Challenge|challenge]] to unlock the next world. An increasing number of Jiggies are required for each consecutive world. Banjo and Kazooie no longer perform a victory dance from collecting a Jiggy, so they can still move around once they have obtained a Jiggy.


===''Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge''===

Jiggywiggy again opens the worlds, just like in ''Banjo-Tooie'', but solving a puzzle is no longer required.

Once a certain amount of Jiggies are collected, [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] can enter [[Jiggywiggy's Temple]]. The duo must solve a moving picture game for [[Jiggywiggy]] to open the next world. It is very similar to [[Bottles' Moving Picture Game]] in Banjo-Kazooie. An increasing number is needed for each consecutive world. Banjo and Kazooie no longer perform a victory dance from collecting a Jiggy, meaning the player can still move them right after collecting a Jiggy.

**In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', when you gain a Jiggy and bring it to the [[Jiggy Bank]], it floats into the bank, playing the jingle from the first two games.

*In [[Gobi's Valley]], we find out that Jiggies have been around for at least 1,000 years, since [[Grabba]] says he had his Jiggy for over 1,000 years. What they were used for in the ancient past is unknown.

*Jiggies are used as an attack move for a piñata called Fizzly Bear on ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viva_Pi%C3%B1ata Viva Piñata]'', another game developed by [[Rare]].

*No matter where it comes from, Jiggies always appear to be clean and unscratched. (i.e. Boggy barfing it up, Canary Mary's wing, pooped out by Eyrie.) An exception is when Banjo mentions that the Jiggy obtained from the Oogle Boogle Tribe has teeth marks on it, due to being bitten by a member who thought that there was chocolate inside of it.

*Jiggies can also be broken into pieces, as evidenced in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', where in [[Glitter Gulch Mine]], Banjo and Kazooie destroy the Jiggy Boulder in the Crushing Shed, also shattering the Jiggy, forcing Banjo-Kazooie to find the pieces and put it back together. Also in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', some of Grunty's minions shattered a Jiggy into pieces, and the pieces are subsequently gathered and put back together with the help of [[Miss Bucket]].
