DK: Jungle Climber

The aim is to guide DK to the top of the scrolling levels by swinging from hand to hand between pegs set out all over the playing area. Holding a shoulder button makes DK grip with the corresponding hand, and once he's latched onto a peg he'll start rotating around it. Releasing the button at the right moment makes him fly off towards the next peg.

Holding both buttons makes him latch onto two pegs, assuming there are two close enough together, and our giant monkey hero can be launched off at high speed into enemies.

There are puzzle elements, such as hidden switches that trigger additional pegs and sections of pegs that disappear after being touched, forcing poor Kong to swing through at blazing speed. Diddy Kong also comes along for the ride, sticking to Donkey's back and providing grippy assistance when the main monkey's hands are full. Look for it later this year.
