Donkey Kong Country 3 - Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! Review by: Marcmoney - 10/10
Donkey Kong Country 3Donkey Kong Country 3...one of the biggest and popular games of mankind. A few years ago, i was playing Donkey Kong Country 1 for so long and i had an image of what seems to be Donkey Kong Country 2. I looked it up and i bought the game and it was something i remembered in that time period. When i played Donkey Kong Country 2 for a while, i looked up things for the fun of it and found Donkey Kong Country 3. I was so confused and i checked it out and looked up information on it and i realized that it is a real game. I thought it was someone making a hacked game or something. I have it now and i played it many times.
The gameplay is great. It is very different out of Donkey Kong Country 1 and Donkey Kong Country 2. When i was playing Donkey Kong Country 3, i was surprised of how you start out. You can move anywhere in the map, that was the coolest thing of all and riding in boats. Funky Kong and Cranky Kong were still in the game. Although, new things on the map seemed a whole lot different. There were secret hideouts and houses that i found and went into and every house i went in was a bear after a bear. I did not know what this meant, but until i figured out what they did, i figured it was just to get the completion percentage game up; to get items and trading off items from a bear to a bear to a bear.
Now, the gameplay in every level is amazing. The characters and the enemies were very better looking. I would imagine seeing the same creatures from Donkey Kong Country 1 and Donkey Kong Country 2, but i was wrong.
I found out another thing that shocked me. I realized that the rhino is not in the game anymore. :S In fact, it was replaced, by an elephant. I did not know what the name was, but it sure was a little confusing. The elephant surprised me of what it can do. It can suck the barrels from a distance and throw it on enemies or roll it. :) I was surely amazed at that.
From playing Donkey Kong Country 3, i learned that this is twice as better than Donkey Kong Country 1 and Donkey Kong Country 2. Getting this would be a good thing because it is very fun. You have to try Donkey Kong Country 1 first and then Donkey Kong Country 2 to understand a pinch of information of what Donkey Kong Country 3 is like.
Another thing is the bosses. It was so amazing of what the bosses were. One was a waterfall, one was a snowman, one was King K. Rool, obviously. Come to think of it, this is how Donkey Kong Country 3 started:
King K. Rool gets revenge on Donkey Kong by capturing him AND Diddy Kong. Dixie Kong was the only person left, until she had a little help from Kiddy Kong. Kiddy Kong was just like Donkey Kong, except he looked like a baby. They made a great team to save Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.
I say Dixie Kong is the best character out of all four of them because of her hair making her glide through the level.
To sum everything up, the best part of this game is WINNING!!! :D Get this game, it is awesome!! :)
