Donkey Kong Country

Donkey kong country is an excellent game to start a great saga.

David Wise's music is amazing like: Aquatic ambiece, Boss battle music, Jungle groove and many, the music makes you go deeper into the level.

The levels are excellent, in each level you have to pass the level but sometimes it is like Temple Tempest that you followed a normal path but the wheels chase you as if you were in Indiana Jones and the hunters of the lost Ark or Mine cart madness and a long list of levels that are amazing.

RARE knew how to make a good start to the saga of the most famous ape in video games.

When the Original Donkey Kong Country came up, It was a very playable game and I've stuck with since the day I was born. Donkey Kong is a sleep and the Kremlins take away his Banana hoard. The next day Doneky & Diddy vow vengeance to get their hoard back.

The Game is very basic and if you are really good at it, you'll complete the game in an hour. I love the environments that you roam around through from snow mountains to dirty factories.

It also contains animal buddies to ride, brutal bosses to verse and memorable themes DKC offers a wide range of game play for any fans who are an old fan of old game play.

I suggest you play this game, it will be the best game you ever play. 9.7/10

There is no question that "Donkey Kong Country" is one of the best adventure games ever created on any platform. It was easily better than any Mario game the SNES put out and really raised the bar for what side-scrolling games could do. One can have hours of fun immersed in the DK world. The only problem? Hours of gnashed teeth will also be spent re-beating levels because of the stupid saving mechanism.

The best part of the "DK Country" experience is that it is so unique. It was kind of like playing a Mario game...but with new challenges and characters. I liked how Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong both had unique abilities better suited for certain situations, making you (the gamer) figure out when to use each character. The game is also quite challenging, but not to the breaking point. After enough practice, most levels can be beaten before the hair-pulling stage. It terms of gameplay and presentation, this is a 5-star effort all the way.

The HUGE negative? Having to beat multiple levels before being able to save a game. Now, I realize that I have reviewed many NES games and never complained about the saving, but that was because the NES technology just did not allow for "anytime saving". By the time the SNES came around, though, one could have saved the game after every level. However, the game designers decided to make you "earn" save points by beating a number of levels at a time. In the beginning this is fine, as you whip through the levels and pile up the bananas/balloons without hardly a second thought. Once you get to the ice-levels stage, though, the game requires you to beat 4-5 extremely difficult levels before saving is possible. By this time in the game, the player is operating on more like a 4-5 turn basis per lifespan. I realize the "collecting bananas and trying to get specials" argument for racking up multiple lives, but that isn't why I wanted to play the game. I just want to beat each level and move onto the next without all the "monkey business" (pardon the pun). This issue decreases the whole experience for me by an entire star.

Thus, "Donkey Kong Country" is a classic in the canon of video game adventures. A very frustrating save mechanism does put a damper on the experience for all but the experts, but overall it is still a fun game.

Donkey Kong Country is a really classic game. Everybody who saw it back in 1994 thought that this was a game for Nintendo`s new 64-bit system(Nintendo 64). But Donkey Kong Country was a game for the 16-bit Super Nintendo(Super Famicom in Japan). The extremely good graphics that blew everybody away were possible to do on a SNES(short for Super Nintendo Entertainment System) because the developers discovered a new technique to make SNES-games(the Advanced-Computer-Modelling technique). The graphics are impressive, even by today`s standard. But DKC didn`t become a classic just because it looked lush, it also had gameplay and atmosphere to die for. The levels are highly detailed, there are many of them and the excellent music makes for one he%& of an adventure. The game can be extremely frustrating, and you`ll throw away the control and swear like he¤%, but the game is really worth the bother, so you`ll soon pick up the controller again for one more go. I prefer this to Donkey Kong 64 on the N64. DKC is SO GOOD!! 10/10

Rated E.

I own the Game Boy Color Version of Donkey Kong Country.I first played the game at my friends house and I liked it a lot.The first game I got for my Game Boy Color was Pokemon Silver Version.This was the second game I got.I hardly play my Game Boy Color anymore but I do sometimes.Donkey Kong is my favorite character in the Mario series.Whenever there is a Mario game like Diddy Kong Racing or Super Smash Bros where you can choose your character I always choose Donkey Kong.I don't know why but he is my favorite character.I remember when I was in Grade 1 my favorite show was the animated Donkey Kong Country which played on teletoon.Donkey Kong Country the game was very fun but hard.Sure all the levels in the first stage were easy but after that it got harder.Stage 2 level 15 was extremely hard and I had to get a friend to beat it for me.As of now I am on a level in Stage 3 but I stopped playing it because it was too hard.Donkey Kong Country was a really fun game though with pretty good graphics for the gameboy and fun gameplay.You can choose between Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong and you basically jump on baddies and collect different things like bananas.If you find Donkey Kong Country play it! You wont regret it!

9/10
