Where to Find Rock Terrain
Fractone Village – Hilltop Layer
Head to Fractone Village in the Hilltop Layer for an easy rock terrain grind. The area’s rocky plateau, both above and underground, is filled with breakable rocks, making it perfect for racking up Smashintone progress fast.
Longneck Plateau Village – Canyon Layer
Over in the Canyon Layer, the highlands near Longneck Plateau Village are packed with rock terrain.
Just explore the area and start digging. There’s more than enough rocky ground here to hit your quota in no time.
How to Break Rocks Fast
Transform into Kong Bananza and Go Full Punch Mode
The most efficient way to break rocks is by transforming into Kong Bananza and spamming punches like there’s no tomorrow.
The Bananergy Meter fills up as you collect gold, and if you dig efficiently, it’ll be full again by the time your transformation ends.
How to Unlock and Use Kong Bananza Form

You can stay in Kong form longer by equipping certain skills or costumes. Boosting your transformation time increases your efficiency, so invest your skill points or fossils if you’ve got them to spare.
Smash with Rocks While You Wait
When you’re not transformed, grab a rock and swing it like a caveman with purpose. It’s the best way to clear terrain while your Bananergy Meter refills.
Smashintone Challenge Guide
20,000 m³ for Hilltop Layer
You’ll meet Smashintone near Fractone Village on the Hilltop Layer. He’ll challenge you to destroy 20,000 m³ of rock. Don’t stress out because the nearby rocky plateau has more than enough terrain to meet this quota.
Meet the requirement and return to him to receive a Banandium Gem as your reward!
Hilltop Layer Banana and Fossil Locations
30,000 m³ for Canyon Layer
Another Smashintone awaits near Longneck Plateau Village in the Canyon Layer. This time, you’ll need to destroy 30,000 m³ of rock, but again, the terrain is practically made of rocks, so you’ll hit that mark in no time.
Fulfill his request, then check back in to claim your Banandium Gem!
