Nutty Acres is the first of five game worlds in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. The level features the look of an artificial meadow made out of cardboard, paper and fabric. It also features a mechanical look with gears, cogs, pipes, girders and an artificial sky broadcast on large HD screens.
According to the Lord of Games, Nutty Acres is the farm owned by Mumbo and Humba and the entire area of the level is the Nutty Island. Nutty Acres' nuts are famous for being the best and toughest nuts around, winning the farm the "Golden Nut" award. Nutty Acres also features the "Loco Coco" tree, which produces the largest and hardest of the coconuts, but only once per year. Other notable locations include the large volcano, and Mumbo's Nuts, a garden area where most of the coconuts are grown.
