Foundation for a delightful Trilogy
Donkey Kong Country was released in 1994 by Rare for the Super Nintendo. This game is the foundation of a delightful Donkey Kong Trilogy, with parts 2 & 3 following in the 90s and actually getting better each time. But this is where it all began, Donkey Kong Country had groundbreaking graphics back then, known as ACM (Advanced Computer Modelling).

The Story: In this game, Donkey Kong's banana supply has been stolen. Together with his buddy Diddy, you set out to uncover who did this.

Very challenging levels, personally for me the level where you speed through rails in a mine cart is really tough. I've fallen off there so many times and quickly moved on to something else.

Everyone who loves retro gaming simply must have this in their collection. Preferably complete in box ;-)

Shines in diverse gameplay!
Donkey Kong Country is a true classic. It may take some getting used to that the image quality is not that great anymore. (Kids, sit a bit further from the TV, then you'll see that it's a monkey!)

The gameplay remains fantastic. The strength of the game lies in its variety. Going through water, riding a rhino, shooting from barrel to barrel. Challenging to collect the extra lives. Anddd do you still remember how to find the secret passages?

Impressive platformer with an amazing soundtrack!
Donkey Kong Country for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) is an iconic platform game originally released in 1994. Developed by Rare and published by Nintendo, it is known for its groundbreaking graphics and impressive visual effects.

The game follows the adventure of Donkey Kong and his companion Diddy Kong as they try to reclaim their stolen banana hoard from the evil King K. Rool and his Kremling gang. The levels are beautifully designed with detailed backgrounds and vibrant colors, which was revolutionary for a 16-bit console at the time.

The gameplay is challenging and diverse, featuring platform elements, enemies to defeat, and secrets to discover. The ability to switch between Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong, each with their own unique abilities, adds depth to the gameplay.

The soundtrack, composed by David Wise, is a highlight of the game and is often praised for its catchy tunes and atmospheric tones that perfectly complement the levels' ambiance. "Aquatic Ambience" is a masterpiece and makes the water levels a joy to play!

Donkey Kong Country is a true classic that has stood the test of time thanks to its innovative graphical presentation, immersive gameplay, and memorable music. It remains an essential part of video game history and a must-play for fans of the platform genre.

One of the best games you could ever play for the SNES
Just for the record, I can say that Donkey Kong Country is one of my most favorite games I have ever played for the SNES. And I could say that this is one of the games that never tires me when playing. I could just play this game over and over again.

I have loved Donkey Kong Country since I was young and used to play it after school and even continued playing it in the evening. I even played this game while doing my homework. God, it brings back so many memories. The funny thing is that as soon as I bought this game again, I started playing it immediately and finished it on the same day. I must say that I constantly had a kind of déjà vu feeling while playing and therefore knew exactly how to run and jump and find the secrets :)

In short, a fantastic game for everyone!

Fantastic Game!
Donkey Kong Country is an amazing game! This game had revolutionary graphics for its time, which still look great to this day. The gameplay feels smooth, fast, and is very simple. The levels, although not as varied as in Donkey Kong Country 2, are still very enjoyable and fast-paced.
The soundtrack is done by David Wise and is one of the best video game soundtracks ever. This is one of the few games where I can't think of any negatives. Donkey Kong Country is my favorite SNES game and also my favorite 2D platformer, and I recommend the game to everyone. If you enjoyed this game, then you will definitely like Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest too.
Beautiful graphics, smooth gameplay, fun levels, and superb music. Fantastic game!

Even more fun than on the Game Boy!
I bought Donkey Kong Country because I knew Donkey Kong from the Game Boy games. I already thought Donkey Kong Land on the Game Boy was a great game, but on the Super NES, it's even more fun!

Jumping around with Donkey Kong through all the levels makes it a fun challenge to reach the Finish. The game is a great platformer, so I can definitely recommend it to everyone!

Best platformer ever!
Donkey Kong Country on the Super Nintendo is a masterpiece that stands out for its revolutionary graphical beauty and engaging gameplay. The game introduced advanced pre-rendered 3D graphics on a 16-bit platform, making it look stunning for its time.

The collaboration between Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong brought a new dynamic to the platform genre, with each character having unique abilities. The variety in levels, from dense jungles to frozen glaciers, keeps the gaming experience fresh and challenging. The iconic music by David Wise adds to the atmosphere and character of the game.

Donkey Kong Country strikes a perfect balance between accessibility and difficulty, providing a satisfying gaming experience for both newcomers and seasoned players. It remains a timeless masterpiece that deserves its place among the best platform games of all time.

Beautiful Graphics and Affordable Price
Donkey Kong Country is a fantastic platformer that immediately reminded me of the style of Super Mario. The graphics are incredibly beautiful and impressive for a Super Nintendo game. It feels like you're having a PlayStation-like 3D experience, which is really impressive for that time.

At our home, we bought the game here for a great price, and it was even more affordable than at the competition. That only enhanced the experience.

For me, Donkey Kong Country is an absolute must-have. The levels are challenging, but not frustrating, and the music is delightfully nostalgic. This game is truly one of the very best platformers you can play on the Super Nintendo.

Cheers,
