Short description
The entire Donkey Kong family gets into the swing of things on DS!
King K. Rool is up to no good again, and it’s up to Donkey Kong to swing into action. Using the same simple control scheme that made the DK: King of Swing Game Boy Advance SP game so accessible and fun to play, players of all skill levels can swing and climb to new heights made possible by the dual screens of Nintendo DS.
Adventure mode features Diddy Kong as a sub-character, and players can look forward to new moves, new items and a bunch of minigames sure to make them go bananas. Not only that, but fun tutorials that ease new players into the game also can be accessed as minigame challenges.
If players are more in the mood to rumble, they can take on up to three pals in fun multiplayer challenges using DS Download Play and the DS Local Area Network. They can pick from Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong or Funky Kong, and let the monkey business begin.
Long description
Take on the role of Donkey Kong in this swinging jungle adventure on the Nintendo DS.
Donkey Kong: Jungle Climber features a whole new adventure on tropical Sun Sun Island. On the island the evil King K. Rool has stolen the five Crystal Bananas, and DK must get them back with the help of his companion Diddy Kong. This will involve travelling to several themed islands, including Ghost and Chill ‘n’ Char Islands, while climbing higher than ever before with the help of the DS’s dual screens.
Gameplay is similar to the previous game, with the tapping of the shoulder buttons being used to climb on pegs that are littered across the screen. Jumping, as well as swinging between pegs, is possible in order to navigate. Diddy Kong will often join DK and she is able to kill far away enemies. In addition to the single player game there are a number of multiplayer racing modes for up to four people over Wi-Fi Connection. These include games where players must race to the top of the screen or blast through booster barrels to the finish line.
Donkey Kong: Jungle Climber is an easy to pick up and exciting single, and multiplayer action make this title a worthy addition to the series.
