In the beginning you just need to worry about jumping from platform A to platform B and making it to the end of the stage, but things get more challenging very quickly. There is a delightful mix of mechanics that you’ll need to familiarize yourself with and it presents everything in a package simple enough for any audience to enjoy. The game is challenging and exciting throughout. DK himself sounds a bit weird when he gets KO’d, but that’s my only complaint here.ĭonkey Kong Country Returns 3D just might be one of the best platformers available for the 3DS. The game sounds really good and the classic tracks are a treat to listen to. The sounds of the jungle and big band are as present as ever in this installment. A 2GB card isn’t big enough to download the game. The game is like 18K blocks or something. Those good looks are memory intensive though. It definitely earns merit for the visuals. This effect looks really cool and I was surprised by how clean it looked in action. Many times in the game you’ll be transferred between the background and foreground ala Mutant Mudds. The environments are very well done also.
The character and enemy models are sharp and detailed. In fact, of all the 3DS games I’ve played, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D might be the game to best implement the stereoscopic 3D feature. Just about everything you do – such as pouncing on enemies or collecting bananas – happens with a 3D flourish. It looks easily as good as the Wii version of the game, if not better thanks to the great use of 3D. The game has colorful, crisp visuals and they pop from the screen thanks to the console’s 3D functionality. Nobody goes into a Donkey Kong game expecting a rich narrative, so taken wholesale the story is kind of funny and entertaining in a wacky way. DK makes stopping the relics his personal responsibility and that’s about all there is to it. These relics wield powerful hypnosis and they’re making the typically friendly animals of the jungle act like complete jerks. The stage for the game is set when a collection of bizarre sentient relics crash lands in DK’s beloved jungle. The long and short of it is that if you’re typically a fan of the Donkey Kong games, you will probably really enjoy this title. If you’re a platforming fan looking for a fix while you await the next Mario game, then you might want to consider giving this game a look. The game swings over to the 3DS with new content and visuals redone to take advantage of the console’s 3D functionality. Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D is a Nintendo 3DS port of 2010’s Wii hit Donkey Kong Country Returns.
