    This is really fun, but HARD! It feels like old school DK, but even harder! Good overall though!

    This game is very close to the Wii U version of it. It is a fun puzzle side scroller game. It is a challenging game that will frustrate younger kids and us older folks. It will take some time to complete it. It is still fun and what can I say, it is Donkey Kong!

    If you like old school type Nintendo platformers, you'll love this game. Challenging without frustration thanks to the addition of the new Funky Kong character. The game is slot.more forgiving when you play as Funky Kong as opposed to the Wii U Donkey Kong. Tons of fun!

    The Switch version maintains the difficulty and tough bosses, but adds a more accessible and fun Funky Mode, if you aren't up for the soul-crushing challenges of some of Tropical Freeze's later levels. Tropical Freeze looks great on Switch.

    These switch games can be awesome as this one is. You cannot go wrong with Donkey Kong he has been around since I was a kid. This is also very easy for my 5 year old to play which is what I was looking for.

    Never had the original Wii U version but picked this up because its highly regarded. Not let down, super smooth, easy to play, full of secret paths and a few revisits in order to really appreciate the cunning level design. Some of the music is exceptional too.

    This was the first Donkey Kong game i have ever owned and it did not disappoint. The levels look great, the controls feel right, and this game is definitely a challenge. It is definitely worth looking into if you are into platformer style games.

    This game is a ton of fun with great platforming. I never owned it on Wii U so I'm happy to finally have to chance to play. I wish it were a little cheaper since it is a re-release. If you like Donkey Kong/platformers in general, it is worth the buy.

    This series doesn’t get enough love as it should. It’s super fun, energetic, and will last for so long. I will say it’s pretty hard so your probably not going to enjoy it if your not good at platformers.

    If you played Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Wii, than you'll love this one too. Same great gameplay, great music and beautifully looking game. Even if it's your first time playing a Donkey Kong game, you'll still have a blast. Enjoy!

    One of the best games for the unpopular Wii U is thankfully given a second chance on the Nintendo Switch. The original game was tough so the added Funky Kong mode is welcome. Great graphics, music and smooth gameplay make this a must buy!
