Product Description

Manufacturer’s Description
Donkey Kong and friends are back to swing their way through the game as they must retrieve the medallions stolen by the evil King K Rool. To do so, they need to travel through different environments and levels and not only is it necessary they win back the medallions, they also compete to win the throne as 'hero of the jungle.' The jungle is vibrant, bustling with action and excitement!

In this swinging story, elements of platform and puzzle games are included and a unique control system let's you swing through the trees and spin to build up momentum for a mighty leap! The L and R buttons come in very handy in this game as they are used to control each of Donkey Kong's hands as he lunges from branch to branch.

4.0 out of 5 stars A gem of a game, 7 Dec 2005
By Arway "Tree Hugger" (Lancashire, England) - See all my reviews
This is a beauty, and a game that's probably gone unnoticed by the masses. And that's a shame, folks! Because it's fantastic! If you loved the Donkey Kong Country series way back on the SNES, then you'll probably love this. The weird thing is, it's actually quite different to DKC where the gameplay, sound, and graphics are concerned. There's very little platforming, really, as instead you'll be swinging from peg to peg in the treetops.

It pinches a couple of ideas from DKC though, which are the barrel blasting bits, bonus barrels, and DK coins. Not forgetting that there's loads of classic characters from the series in here.

It's quirky. It's fun. And it's contantly surprising you with the ways in which the swinging mechanic has been used. Even then, there's plenty of mini-games and stuff to unlock. The only bad point is that it's way too short. I'd love to see a longer sequel with more DKC elements in it, like animal buddies and minecart segments. So let's have a sequel, please!
