Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
Reviewed by Nate
The Kongs are back and more challenging than ever. Donkey Kong got
kidnapped by that nasty old King K. Rool. Now its up to Diddy and his
friend Dixy to rescue their friend. You will notice more of a Challenge
to Donkey Kong Country 2.
Graphics 10 out of 10
The graphics are even better than the original (pretty hard to believe).
You will notice the same silicon graphics as in Donkey Kong Country and
they have even improved to make the game look even better!
Music and Sound 9 out of 10
Great sound! Even better than the original. Donkey Kong Country 2 has
new music and sounds even better. The only thing I didn't like is the
sound that Donkey Kong makes when you finally see him at the end.
It doesn't even sound like him.
Game Challenge 10 out of 10
The challenge is tough! Sometimes I wish it wasn't as tough. Amateurs
will find Donkey Kong Country 2 very difficult, even more than Donkey
Kong Country 1. If you like a challenge and found Donkey Kong Country 1
easy, you will have more fun with this game.
Game Play-Fun 7 out of 10
Even though this game looks better, It isn't as fun as the original. I like
playing the original better. If they kept the regular DK in the game I
would probably like this game better. Diddy is O.K., but I don't like Dixy,
even though she can fly. I was disappointed with the new character, but
that's my opinion. I wish I could have seen more of Donkey Kong.
Frustration
This game is tough. It will take you a long time to beat it, but you can
save you game just like Donkey Kong Country 1. If you like a challenge,
you will like playing this game.
Replayability 7 out of 10
Once you finally beat the game, you will be glad. It is so long and tough,
I don't even play it that much anymore. If you really like a challenge, this
is a game for you.
Game Value 8 out of 10
I suggest you rent the game before you buy it. If you like it, then buy it.
The game is more fun than the newer games out for the Super NES. If you
haven't played Donkey Kong Country 1, try that out. But if you can't get
enough Donkey Kong Country (even though he isn't in the game) this game
is for you.
Overall 8 out of 10
Donkey Kong Country was a great game and should have just stayed Donkey
Kong Country. I guess it was so popular that they had to make a sequel.
The graphics and sound is better than the original and it is even more
challenging. Diddy stars in this game. If you like Diddy, and the Donkey
Kong Country like game play, try this game.
