    I found that it was easy and fun my son was able to get the hang of it. I had recently bough Luigi Mansion and found that it was too hard for my son, DK was fun and easier for him to play. Definitely recommend it.

    One of the BEST 2D side scrollers of the HD era. I'm glad Nintendo didn't leave this one on the commercially ill-fated but highly capable Wii U. MUST HAVE!!!

    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!

    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.

    I get wrapped up in this game for hours. Donkey Kong has always been a favorite and we enjoy playing multi-player as well. This game does not disappoint and it provides challenging levels to keep you entertained.

    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 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.

    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!
