Donkey Kong games are never complete unless you have bananas that you can collect. DK Bananza has collectibles called Banandium Gems that are scattered throughout the layers of the game. These bananas provide players a skill point after obtaining five of them, and some gems are bundled in groups of three or five. Collecting them should be a priority for all players.
How Many Bananas (Banandium Gems) in DK Bananza
There are 777 Banandium Gems in Donkey Kong Bananza. They’re scattered throughout the 17 layers of the world, so you’ll have to get a 100% Banana collection via layer by layer. Here is the distribution for all Banandium Gems in DK Bananza:

Fortunately, collecting these Bananas is much easier compared to previous games, so you’ll spend less time farming these gems.
How to Collect All Banandium Gems
The best way to farm Bananas in DK Bananza is to focus on the story first. After completing the current objectives of the layer, you can then return to locate and collect the remaining Banandium Gems. However, not all Bananas are available until you complete the Main Story, so it is a good idea to finish the main story first. Instead of aiming for 100% right away, focus on obtaining enough gems to gain sufficient skill points to make the game easier for you.
