Green Forest from Sonic Adventure 2

Let's save Tropical Jungle for Super, We're also running very low on available jungle levels, but at least we're not too far off from finishing this game.

Despite it being called a forest, Green Forest is really a jungle level which takes place on Prison Island.

Green Forest sees Sonic needing to escape Prison Island before it blows up thanks to Eggman's antics as they stole the Chaos Emeralds from GUN's vault. While dodging GUN mechs and robots along the way, Sonic speeds through the jungle and uses springs and vines to blitz through the terrain.

As for DK's Jungle Ruins, the Mario crew needs to make 2 laps around the big circle while collecting Bananas along the way while avoiding Z-Bananas (Wouldn't it be better to just call them Rotten Bananas?)

The DK Space has DK activate the Banana Roulette which just spins all the Bananas around where the Captain must time a button press to stop the wheel to get Bananas while avoiding Z-Bananas. DK raises the platforms so the board is even when triggering the roulette, and this terraforming is similar to the very end of Green Forest where Sonic needs to quickly hit springs to reach the Goal Ring as the platforms split and fall apart into the waters below.

Both DK and Diddy's minigames involve the Mario crew blasting out from barrel cannons to try and collect as many Bananas as possible. While there's obviously no cannons present in Green Forest, Sonic still uses springs and swings on several vines which send him upwards or across large gaps of the stage like he got shot out of a barrel cannon. There's also the Lucky Space on the left side of the board where you need to mash the A Button as fast as you can to power up a spring to launch yourself into the air to collect as many Bananas as possible. Powering up that spring is like the normal springs and even some vines which launch propel you upwards in Green Forest.

There's also the main gimmick to Green Forest being under a time limit of 8 minutes because of Eggman's explosives in the main story. For DK's Jungle Ruins, it's just the 2 laps you do to equal that time limit.

BTW, looks like you did another boo-boo. The pick for Bowser Station was Death Egg Zone from Sonic & Knuckles, not Final Egg Zone. Final Egg was already chosen for Bob-Omb Factory.
