    Donkey Kong Country is a classic platformer that is perfect for younger gamers. Graphics are bright and sharp and the music is very catchy.

    Honestly, we have only been able to play it a few times since we have owned it, but what little we have played, we super enjoyed! I grew up playing DK on my Nintendo Gameboy so this game on our Switch was a must. It's true to the original DK with some new tricks, surprises, and graphics! Excellent purchase!!

    As a gamer, I couldn’t ask for anything more. I grew up on old, pixelated Donkey Kong. This is amazing. The graphics are amazing. Love it.

    Game was enjoyable. Controls were easy to navigate and play through. Haven't completed the game yet, but I normally just game while I am on a plane. Great all around game!

    My 8 year old son loves this game. It is easy for him to follow the directions and figure out, yet challenging enough to keep him entertained and invested.

    One of my top 5 platformers is now on the Switch. Tropical Freeze is challenging yet not punishing perfect for great fun for all ages. Funky Kong adds a nice mix to the gameplay making it easier and enjoyable for new comers. I love Donkey Kong Country games and this has to be my favorite of the series.

    This is my second Donkey Kong, with the original Donkey King Country being the first. Despite the large time gap between both games, Retro Studios found a way to modernize the Donkey Kong world visually without compromising the key formula that made the original so great.

    This game is fantastic! Brings me back to my old school SNES days when I played Donkey Kong Country. The levels, colors, music, controls - Nintendo did it again. New play mechanics have been added and it seems more challenging than ever. I am playing it on an LG OLED and the graphics are awesome.

    Thank God for funky mode! I am getting older and don't have the reflexes of a kid, so an easier mode is right up my alley. The quality of this game is stellar and is a must own for any serious Nintendo head. Buy it when it goes on sale.

    I had this game on the Wii U and had a blast playing it. I unfortunately never got around to finish it so I knew I had to get the Switch version. I love the franchise and I hope more new games come out. Highly recommend this one!

    I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. I definitely can’t pry my eyes away from Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze long enough to live any real life. I used to have dreams of being a successful rockstar & touring the world with my band Clementine but this is my life now. Buyer be warned.. this game is dope.

    Overall great game! Bought this for my son, I ended up playing instead! This game reminds me of the Original Donkey Kong game that I use to play as a kid. Only reason I gave it a four was because Best Buy always meses up my address even though I verify all my info before purchasing. They end up not delivering and I have to go to the store and pick up. Its annoying, second time its happened. Other than that, recommend the game!
