    Similar to other donkey kings but not quite as good as the others. Still a great game though.

    More than anything about my childhood, I remember when I order sat down to play Donkey Kong Country. It was one of the richest and most advanced things at the time and ever since that time, I've played games that were somewhat similar (lookin' at you, Banjo), but nothing that managed to pull off the Amazing feeling that was that. Until I played this game. Nintendo does everything right in this sequel that perfectly recreates the feeling of when you first made a visit to the Tropics of Donkey Kong Country.

    True to the DK tradition, this game is not too easy, not too hard, and always a delight. A great choice for families that love gaming together.

    On single player, be prepared to die a lot. On Multiplayer, be prepared to die a lot, but have a chance at winning.

    I like this game, I find its easier than Donkey Kong Country Returns on the Wii or Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D on the 3DS. The visuals are great and gameplay the classic dk platforming adventure that is still challenging but hasnt tipped into frustration for me yet.
