Overview
The equivalent of
Gruntilda's Lair and the
Isle o' Hags, Showdown Town is the central location in
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.
Banjo and
Kazooie are transported to the town by mysterious figure
Lord Of Games in order to prove their worth in a final fight against Gruntilda, the stakes being their homeland of
Spiral Mountain. Rare has said Showdown Town is currently the largest in-game asset they have ever made.
Showdown Town is a somewhat medieval-styled village housing a wide assortment of animal residents such as pigs, rhinoceri and penguins. Familiar mole
Bottles takes up the role of town guide to assist Banjo and Kazooie, while other characters offer a variety of services. Off the town square is Mumbo's Motors run by
Mumbo Jumbo, which allow the duo to construct their vehicles out of the parts in their possession.
Humba Wumba sells blueprints to help with the construction of more advanced contraptions, while ogre
Klungo owns a gaming emporium on the local pier.
