I absolutely love this game. I used to play it when I was little. I bought it so that I would have something to do while I was in the hospital and on maternity leave.

  The DK Classic
Review created: 12/03/06

1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

The Donkey Kong game for Gameboy is a bit different than I thought it would be. I was thinking that it would be just like the old arcade version with the very simple graphics and endless jumping of barrels (which never gets old by the way) but I was in for a surprise. This DK game starts off the first level like the first level of the original, but soon it is apparent that the game is a lot different. The levels get to the point of being about grabbing keys and unlocking doors to get to the next level and (hopefully) catch DK who has kidnapped Peach. The levels are just interactive puzzles where you must use your intellect to devise a plan to capture the key for the next level. After about 4 levels are completed you get to face DK and the various objects he will be throwing at you (usually barrels).

This game is a great thing to have around when you acquire some leisure time. It's no Zelda- so you likely won't feel compelled to complete it all in one sitting, but it will give you hours of fun that fits people of all ages. I would say anyone from 8 to 80 will enjoy this classic for the Gameboy.

My honest advice- buy this bad boy.

  Good Fun!
Review created: 12/03/09

I paid all of $0.50 for a used Game Boy Color (bad speaker, but sound works w/headphones) at a yard sale, so I'm happy to see I can get games for it cheaply as well. This DK game is both fun and challenging, with a ton of levels. Pretty innovative little tricks built in by the programmers on each level, which I have to discover myself as I don't have the manual. I don't think this game brings out the color features of the Game Boy Color, as the "color" is mostly shades of brownish, but it doesn't affect game play any. Pick this up for a good price, and its quite a bit of fun!

It is an old game but I love it. I was playing this game since I was 10 and know I am 25 imagine that. 15 years later I keep loving it. I passed now to my son due that I like to pass costumes and he also loves it. Hopefully these will still be around for my grandkids.

The game is very fun and works great. it's almost like new and the condition reflects this. it has short but fun levels in it and it takes a little bit of skill to play as you get into it. it is pretty challenging for a game from the eighties.

  More Memories!!!!
Review created: 08/04/09

Donkey Kong is a very interestingly fun game. I first got this game back in 1996 along with the clear game boy pocket. When i bought it off of eBay, it was in very good condition. this game brings back so many memories. I remember being 12 years old living at my grandmothers house, and getting it for Christmas.

  DK, Donkey Kong!
Review created: 02/06/09

I bought this game because I have heard from several people that it's a fun game, and they were right.
With around 100 levels, great graphics, and solid gameplay, it's an amazing game.
There's nothing I don't like in this game, everything is great.

If you liked the arcade game Donkey Kong, then this game is a must-own.

  A Perfect Puzzle Twist On An Old Classic
Review created: 08/01/08
by:

I have always loved old video games -- probably because I grew up at the exact time of the NES and video arcade boom during the early 80's -- so it goes without saying that Donkey Kong is a favorite of mine. Recently, I have been trying to expand my collection of classic console games, and I decided to hunt down this "re-imagining" of Donkey Kong.

I say "re-imagining" because it is essentially nothing like the original game. This game is a platform puzzle game, and offers over 100 levels of Mario and Donkey Kong battling it out over Paulina (from the original). It requires platforming skill (as in the original Mario games) along with some mastering of puzzle-solving.

I loved this game enough, that I played it through completely over the two days after it arrived. That doesn't mean that it's easy though, so don't be fooled. The game actually has a perfect balance of challenge, with the early levels being easier and becoming progressively harder as you play through.

I highly recommend this title to anyone with a GameBoy that plays old-style cartridges. It is very hard to find one with an original manual, so be sure to look one up online because there are certain moves that will be helpful to learn early on.

My Score - 9/10

Note: If you pick this title up and end up loving it as much as I do, be sure to grab Mario vs. Donkey Kong for the GameBoy Advance, as it is the "unofficial" sequel, and equally as addicting!
