My Favourite Game Of All Time – Donkey Kong Country

18 May

Is it strange that my favourite game of all time is not on a next gen console? Instead it comes from the 16 bit, cartridge game, SNES. My favourite game of all time is Donkey Kong Country. From the moment it loads up, a smile is on my face. The jungle music and the image of the goofy pair of Donkey Kong and Diddy really does set the tone.

As you fly past the first few levels, the addiction kicks in. The first level can be completed in about 60 seconds if you know the game well. The levels are however rather complex, with hidden areas, mini games, and little cheats.

Like Super Mario collecting coins. Donkey Kong is slightly different in that you collect bananas. 100 bananas = 1 life. Believe me, later in the game you’ll need these lives.

A special shout out has to go to my favourite level of the whole game. The runaway mine train level. The level starts by jumping into a mine train and rollercoasting your way through the level, jumping to avoid ‘baddies’, ducking under and jumping over missing parts of track. The level really is at 100mph. With quick succession broken track and what seems to be quite imposssible long jumps, you end the level shattered. What a game!
