Your banana hoard is gone, and you're one funky monkey because of it. You left your little buddy, Diddy, to watch the stash, and he got clobbered by the Kremlings.
Now you have to search the jungle, mountains, caves, and sea for your bananas. Don't worry about Diddy, though. You'll find him at every turn. Everyone knows that two Kongs do make a right!
Your two monkeys, Diddy and Donkey Kong, are interchangeable throughout the game. If you lose one, you can always find DK barrels with your missing buddy inside -- they're strewn throughout the stages. You can even find and ride an animal buddy a frog, rhino, swordfish, or ostrich through a stage.
At the end of each stage is a boss, though we've certainly seen tougher ones on the SNES. The Kremlings-slimy, weird reptilian hybrids that have familial connections to Rush Limbaugh -- are your basic platform nightmare. They come at you in various speeds and colors, and they've brought a horde of guest-host horrors like flying bees, snakes, sharks, and more. Players encounter various types of barrels that help with this bananarama. You can find a Continue Barrel that acts as a level marker, a Cannon Barrel that shoots you into the wild blue yonder, a DK Barrel that gives you back your lost simian soulmate, and a Steel Keg Barrel that rolls continually through a level and destroys everything in its path you can also ride it like an animal friend.
Also there to lend a hand minus that pesky opposable thumb, of course are a few of your jungle friends. There's Candy Kong, who saves your progress, Cranky Kong, a grizzled old ape who has nothing but insults and a few tips for you, and Funky Kong, a pilot who flies you to any previously explored destination you'd like to revisit.
Why would you want to go back a level? Because this game has more hidden stuff in it than a Congressman's agenda. You can replay levels over and over again and always find something new.
Bonus games -- and even bonus levels -- are all sequestered away in the stages. The most outstanding accomplishment of this game, though, is the graphics. Rendered on Silicon Graphics machines the same machines used to make the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park , the graphics are unlike anything seen in a video game before.
The 3D sprites of Donkey and Diddy are fantastic, with great details like Donkey's garish red necktie swinging when he moves and Diddy's wipe of the brow with realistic shadows on his forehead. Rounding out the awesome scenery, the enemies are also rendered in 3D, and the backgrounds have gorgeous graphical touches like the layered snow effect in the mountains and the barely lit caves. The music is great but not quite perfect.

If s not Andrea's ill-advised Russian-style dance routine - although, believe us, that's almost unbearable. On this evidence, wicka-wicka-Will Smith hasn't got much to worry about. It costs? They're similar to the levels in Mario or Banjo, with loads of different things to see, do and discover as you unlock doors, activate switches and uncover previously hidden areas within.
Here's a look at the game's first three levels, and hints on how to bring about the Kong family reunion. Donkey Kong 64's first world is a jungle clearing, filled with palm trees, wandering beavers and buzzing bees. Time to get monkeying, then. Bearing more than a slight resemblance to Banjo-Kazooie's desert level, this world features quicksand, spitting camels, and more palm trees.
When you first meet Cranky, he'll promise you 'something special' in return for 15 Banana Medals. Collecting 75 bananas will earn you a single medal, so it'll be some time before you muster the full 15, but when you do. Cranky will give you the chance to play a full version of Rare's Sinclair Spectrum classic, Jetpac. Set inside a huge, mechanical toy factory, complete with clockwork Kremlings and walking dice, there's something strangely eerie about this third world.
There's a big fairy hidden somewhere on DK Isles needless hint: look for the island in the shape of a fairy's face , and she's blubbing about her lost friends, who are scattered around DK64's eight levels. With the help of the camera she hands over, you can recapture the giggling blue imps by photographing them. There are 20 Banana Fairies in all, and five superb bonuses available on the way to snapping them all. Which we're not going to spoil for you. Most apes are restricted to swinging from trees, shouting 'ooh!
Not the five- strong Kong family, though: they've got over moves between them, all of which come into their own for certain puzzles. By leaping into barrel. Tiny can live up to her name by shrinking to a twentieth of her usual size. There's usually a suitably small door nearby for the shrunken simian to scamper into.
Chunky can render himself invisible by standing on a Chunky Pad. It's most useful in the big wooden hut in the Crystal Caverns, where the ape needs to sneak up to a banana without being caught by the searchlights. Invincibility by any other name. This move doesn't crop up too much, but it's handy when Donkey Kong needs to scamper across molten lava or avoid attack from the irritating viking boys.
Clown-ape hybrid Lanky can hit a Lanky pad, flip onto his hands, and - taking a leaf from Kazooie's book - scamper up slopes that the other Kongs can't negotiate. It's the only way to reach some of the level's warp pads. If Diddy leaps into a barrel with his face on, he'll be equipped with a flaming pair of rocket boosters. There are plenty of high switches, but you'll inevitably forget them as you enjoy soaring around the sky. There's a big fairy hidden somewhere on DK Isles needless hint took for the island in the shape of a fairy's face , and she's blubbing about her lost friends, who are scattered around DK64's eight levels.
While this is mostly used for decoration's sake - the circular shadows that dance around the Kongs, the sparkly lights that illuminate the Toff 'n' Scoff room after the torches are blown out, the deep, dark underwater sections with Glimmer the fish lighting the way - it's also put to brilliant use in some of the game's puzzles.
The best is a short section where Diddy negotiates a suspended maze, with only a torch-carrying parrot for company. Donkey Kong's most famous feature - the minecart ride - makes a glorious return in DK It's where Rare are at their most extravagant with impressive lighting, blink-and-you'll-miss-it events, and frightening speed combined to create - yes - a real rollercoaster ride. Cranky's wife, Wrinkly Kong, has sadly passed away since the Kong family's last adventure, but she's still on hand to supply helpful tips.
Wander in front of a Wrinkly Door, and her ghostfy form will appear to tell you how to solve one of the level's puzzles. If s of great help to novice gamers, while experienced platform fans can ignore the doors and avoid having DK64's puzzles spoiled.
We weren't convinced that weapons and platform games could mix, but the Kongs' arsenal works surprisingly well. The orange grenades are a pleasure to use, homing in on bad guys to avoid tiresome aiming problems, and the guns are superb. It's hugely satisfying to knock beavers flying with a well-placed coconut shell complete with satisfying 'thwock! Additionally, Funky will sell you a sniper add-on for your weapons, where the sights take on an authentically wild swinging motion as you zoom further in to faraway switches.
The DK64 team have borrowed the Change Tile system from Banjo-Kazooie, giving the Kongs the ability to jump into crates and change into other animals. Such as You can see this giant rhino doing what he does best - headbutting beavers and knocking down huts - in the walkthrough a few pages back. There are also a number of doors that can only be knocked down by Rambi's rock-like nut, opening up new switches and puzzles for Tiny and Lanky.
Disappointingly, though, he's forbidden from entering certain areas - a giant No Entry' sign will appear on screen and you'll automatically morph back to Donkey Kong's beefy form.
He's a pleasure to control, cutting through the water like a missile, and there's a cute challenge where Engarde needs jump through rings to open up new areas for Kongs. Brilliantly, both Engarde and Rambi to knock down beavers or swim through rings against the clock.
To gain access to these games, you need to Rare's perverse sense of humour has become increasingly apparent in recent games UFG's 'Specialist Magazine' springs to mind , and if you're looking for more, be sure to spend some time with DK64's absolutely superb instruction manual.
With Cranky 'hosting' it, Rare have been given free reign to poke fun at their very own game, including a brilliant bit where the old ape introduces the section explaining Candy's Musical Instruments with, "Hey! This is robbed from Zelda! If you want to get your mitts on all those lovely shiny bananas, you'll need to perfect your Bonus Game skills.
Here's a selection of the best mini games, and how to crack them. Simple: kill all the bad guys and find the chequered finish line. The time limit seems far too tight, until you realise that you're allowed to use your Peanut Popguns. You've got infinite bullets, so don't bother to aim - just keep popping. Almost too difficult, with the aim being to snap at the beavers and herd them into the central hole.
We found it best to tap A and B, jumping and barking' like crazy, and pray that the beavers didn't steer themselves away from the pit. A nightmare.
This one is brain-scramblingly difficult. Kong's in a minecart, and needs to switch routes to avoid colliding with explosive barrels Rush into the centre, slow down to lure the barrels into your lane, then quickly rush back to the outside again. Here, hungry crocs need to be fed with melons to avoid them gobbling passing fairies. The game this time sees Mario as the bad guy and he has caged Donkey Kong! You playing as his son Jr, try to save him. The game is a platformer, but being able to climb vines is cool.
The platforming is nice and tight, but it is keeping an eye on the enemies that you really need to do as you make your way to your dear old dad! Overall, Donkey Kong Classics is a fantastic collection of games. Both of these are amazing games in my opinion and are essential for any gamer to play. I do feel that it would have been cool if they could have put Donkey King 3 on here as it would then have been a real complete collection.
Still, this is a must-play for the NES! If you were born in the s or s then Donkey Kong would have been like your favorite game. If we have to compare it to a game today then we can say its popularity was no less than the popularity of Fortnite we see today. Browse games Game Portals. Donkey Kong Country 2. Install Game.
