Quantcast

DK Jungle Climber


As close to a Donkey Kong Country sequel as we'll get

Having said that, it’s the later levels - especially the fiddly underwater ones - that prevent Jungle Climber from achieving perfection. We prefer the earlier stages’ friendly pegboard-chaining to the sparse skies and frequent death-tumbles of later on. Outside of New Super Mario Bros, you won’t find a more magically playable platformer on DS. Welcome back to brilliance, DK.

You'll love
  • Wonderful level design
  • Enough innovations to keep us hooked
  • Minigames are pretty damn good
You'll hate
  • Underwater levels are bothersome
  • Later levels get egregiously hard
  • Not as accessible as other platformers
