    DKCTF is gaming at it’s peak

    Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze has to be not just one of my favorite games on the Switch but my one of my favorite games period. I told myself I should get it soon years ago. This year, I finally got it and I honestly loved my time with it. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to play more 2D games/Wants to play more Donkey Kong after playing Bananza

    Totally Bananas!

    One of the best platformers re-released for the Nintendo Switch system. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze achieves at being a difficult yet fun platformer with fantastic stages, incredible music, and tight platforming. I would highly recommend if yours looking for a fair challenge.

    Amazing Port, Great DK Game

    A great port of the Nintendo Wii U Game. I never had the chance to play the original back on Wii U, so when I saw this version I knew I had to buy it, was a big fan of the ones back on SNES, and can say that this one is just as fun as those.

    Awesome Experience!!

    Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is a blast to play I had a great time playing it. The game starts off easy and builds up to challenging levels. It has jungle stages water stages and more. Boss battles are tough as well. Overall if you like Donkey Kong you can’t go wrong here.
