DK Jungle Climber Reviews

I love this game, as does my 10 year daughter. While it is sometimes very difficult, ultimately, with practice you can beat anything (so far). Lots of different skills and moves to learn. If you like the Mario games, you will love this. We still haven't finished it after 6 months, there are many new areas that we have yet to reach.

 

I am picky about my video games and like to play on Nintendo DS - this is an old standard with some new moves.

 

I pray they come out withy a new DK game soon,I aqm 50% complete and would be more if I could get help with that boss after planet planteen,all I can say is this is a must for your DS. I would have given it 10 starsw because of all the enjoyment I got from the game if.I could have and I am a 39 year old female I could list all the DS games I have just to show you all that most of them are 4 and a half to 5 star games but this one really is the best to me. I have to say that outta all my games this one is the greatest DS game I have enjoyed thus far. I am up to planet planteen now and just cannot conquer the boss at the end of it,but I'll keep trying.It's the one when he picks you up and then slams his hands down,really really challanging.Does anyone have a clue to how I can get a lil help conquering this boss.Please. One more thing,Is there a big D.K coin in the fiery volcano level, because I have done it at least 50 times with no luck. I have 50 ds games and 50 GBA games to go w/ my nintendo DS.I have to say that the Donkey Kongs are 100% my favorite.

 

When DK gets hit, Diddy goes away. And DK has some interesting new techniques with this game, such as the attack method, and his ability to fly. The story is average at best. If the level manages to actually have a DK barrel, Diddy comes out and sits on DK's back.

There is no real adventure incorporated into the game. There is a maximum of one bonus barrel in each level (if any at all) and the challenge is always the samecatch bananas in a barrel, whoopee. I remember spending about 40 men trying to beat one level (and having any more than 20 men is a major feat). The concept is new and enticingDonkey Kong spins on pegs.wooden pegs.stone pegs.iron pegs.ice pegsthey change from level to level. Not difficult because of lack of skill, but simply because it would take several times of playing a certain part of the level over and over and over until you figured out the strategy needed to beat it (since DK dies so easily), and by that time you are so tired of the playing the level you're ready to just put the game down for good. It is very obvious that DK: Jungle Climber was not made by RARE.

I rated this game four stars for fun, but overall three stars based on the fact that it veers so far from the Donkey Kong legacy it does not deserve to have the DK title. There are very few extras outside the levels, and achieving 100% completion is not worth the time spent. But I encourage you to try some of the older Donkey Kong country games, which were developed for SNES but are also available as GBA games and can be played in the DS.

And don't be fooled by the cover, you cannot play Diddy as you have been able to in past games. If you are new to video games or the DK series, you will probably enjoy this game. However, those (and the graphics) are the only perks to the game.

Overall, I'd have to say if you've been embedded in the DK games of the past, don't expect the same level of activity and fun with this one. My biggest complaint is that I felt that some of the levels were entirely too difficult. There are items to collect within the levels, such as the KONG letters, the banana coins, and the DK coin, but they serve no significant purpose other than free men and useless cheats.

Had this been a different character with a different name my disappointment in this game would have been much lessbut having a history full of fond memories of the Donkey Kong series I hate to say that this one certainly does not live up to the name.

 

At first it was hard to understand as I don't read instructions, and then with trying it all started to make sense. Lots of action and surprises - I really like when the monkey comes on my back and I have to shoot off to a target. You have to get jewels, collect bunches of bananas, and you get to fly or go underwater.I like this game more than Super Mario. I beat the first game and now I am on the second one. My mom helped me choose this game as a gift for my 7th birhtday.
