8/10

Not as Good as the other 2, other wise it's pretty Average

Donkey Kong & Diddy Kong have been kidnapped by K.Rool who is now a big, fat ass robot named Kaos. Diddy's girlfriend Dixie and Funky Kong's baby cousin Kiddy Kong join the ride as they go through menacing obstacles and dangerous mechanical worlds.

Playing this game after the last two does give me the meaning that this one is much more harder, much more challenging, many more obstacles to go through though sometimes playing it doesn't seem so original like the first one.

Now I'm not saying that this one was bad, though I couldn't say this one was as good as the other two and it doesn't seem as playable as DKC 1 & 2.

DKC 3 bases off of the theme of a Mechanical Themed atmosphere. Like DKC 1 & 2 it still had animal buddies, graphics and game play still remain the same, and a lost world is still there.

If you liked DKC 1 & 2, you're gonna like DKC 3 which is a great game like the last two 8/10.

Trivia
Donkey Kong Country 3 was one of the last games to be released on the SNES. In fact, it's release coincided with the release of Super Mario 64 (1996) on the Nintendo 64. Occasionally when you go into Wrinkly's Save Cave you can hear a variation of the castle music from Super Mario 64.

Goofs
The boss level Belcha's Barn at Lake Orangatanga, despite taking place inside of a mill, the original SNES version has the factory background like the later levels Fireball Frenzy, Blazing Bazukas, and Krack-Shot Kroc that are all factory levels. This was corrected in the GBA remake in order to be consistent with mill-type levels and their matching backgrounds.

Quotes
Baron K. Roolstein: [after Dixie and Kiddy defeat the robotic boss KAOS the second time] Oohhh Nooo! What've you done? My wife's going to kill me - I used all her best pots and pans to make him... and then you just cast him aside... as if he were a sack of empty tins!
Dixie Kong: I thought that's what he was!
Baron K. Roolstein: Whhaattt! How dare you! KAOS was my ticket to world domination... and I'd have gotten away with it... if it wasn't for you meddling kids
Dixie Kong: I guess it just isn't your day, is it?
Baron K. Roolstein: Well, you may have roasted my robot, but I'm the master chef around here... and I reckon it's about time your goose was cooked!

Crazy credits
When the character credits roll, photos are taken of them in various poses. They walk or run along then the picture flashes and the picture is of them in the last position they were in before the latter occurs. Except for the Bosses and Brothers Bear. Also, Donkey and Diddy Kong did not make it into this section even though they do have cameo appearences.
