Worlds
There are 16 levels within 4 worlds. The worlds are separated with a total of 4 Boss-levels, and three fun and fast-moving transition levels between each world, where Kao can ride a snowboard, Jet Ski, or fly an aircraft. Additionally, when collecting key parts, Kao can be teleported to bonus levels.
Altogether, Kao has 27 diverse locations to explore.
The Map
After finishing every level, the map appears and the next level on the path starts to blink, letting the player enter it. The levels, which were successfully finished, are available all the time in case the player wants to replay them either to collect left power-ups or just for fun.
