    I loved the music and aesthetic of this game, but the platforming never really hooked me. Luckily, Cranky mode lets you see everything without worrying about the sometimes crazy difficulty.

    Best DK Game Out There

    I bought this game for the Wii U and it was fun, but it was also so so so frustrating because it was so Hard! Especially the bosses, it's not like Mario where you hit 3 times, but DK has to hit more like 10 times to beat the bosses. But this game for the Switch is much easier because of the Funky Mode! Great game, wished instead of copying the Wii U version, make a New Game with Funky.,

    It’s Donkey Kong with some extras. You can choose to pay as another character which makes the games easier. It has some difficulty settings. Other than, that it’s your classic side-scrolling monkey collecting bananas and letters to reach the end of the level. Love it!

    Fun game, over priced for sure though. Funky mode makes it easier, solid graphics, good 2d platformer that continues the DK country series nicely. Good game at around $25

    Loving this new Funky Mode

    So glad they gave this game a Funky Mode which is an easier difficulty level so anyone can enjoy the beauty and cheer of feeling like you're on vacation in a tropical island. I've never played Donkey Kong before and I'm really loving the break from dark and dragging titles on the other consoles. A good excuse to get back to the Switch and remember the days when video games were supposed to be fun!

    Just like a lot of people I used to love playing Donkey Kong country on the Super Nintendo. It was fun and had great graphics. Let me tell you! This new version doesn’t disappoint! Such a great game to add to the collection. Looks amazing and fun to play. I would totally recommend getting this new version of Donkey Kong!

    I have played several DK titles over the years and found all of them fun and enjoyable. This one is no different and had cleverly done levels. It looks great on Switch and the inclusion of Easy mode is great as I try to turn my 4 year old on to video games. If you own a Switch, like Donkey Kong or Mario games then you need to purchase this.

    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.

    Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze on the Switch is a direct port from the Wii U version of the game with some added features, most notably 'Funky Mode' which makes the game slightly easier to play, and adding Funky Kong as a playable character. Anyone who enjoys this style of platformer, or needs a nostalgic trip, this is a must have game for you.
