Donkey Kong Country Nintendo Retrospective

Donkey Kong Country is an incredible island adventure. This game was the first to feature Diddy Kong, who plays Donkey Kong’s sidekick. Challenged by the crazed tribe of reptilian Kremlings, they endeavor to get back their stolen banana hoard! Armed with lightning-quick moves, chest-pounding muscle and awesome aerial acrobatics, the duo is ready to face their cunning adversaries.

Donkey Kong’s quirky family offers assistance throughout the game. Besides Diddy Kong, you’ll meet Funky Kong, Cranky Kong and Candy Kong. You’ll also get help from some of DK’s animal friends: Rambi the rhino, Expresso the ostrich, Enguarde the swordfish, Squawks the parrot, and Winky the frog. All of the animail friends have their own unique abilities. For example, Rambi the rhino is the only animal in the game that can break into hidden caves by just ramming into walls.

This game has over 30 levels, plus dozens of hidden caves and secret rooms–more than 100 areas in all. Breakthrough Advanced Computer Modeling (ACM) provides fully-rendered graphics that were once thought impossible on a 16-bit system.
