    This game is just fun. It is more challenging than a Mario platformer and twice as rewarding. Would not reccomend for young kids..

    Super Fun Platformer

    This platformer is super fun and well-designed. The game isn't too easy, so you'll be able to play for many hours. Finding everything will take a long time and be very difficult, which makes it good for older people. And there's even a new character for "easy mode" that'll be helpful for younger kids.

    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!!

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Game is very fun to play. Reminds me of the old Donkey Kong i played growing up back in the day. Purchased for my nephews and they can’t put it down. Happy to purchase my gaming systems through Best Buy because I know they are original and priced right.

    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.

    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.
