DK: King of Swing

released on Feb 04, 2005

The normally quiet jungle is abuzz with excitement, because it's time for the ceremony to choose the king of the jungle! Or at least it would be if King K. Rool hadn't stolen the special medallion meant for the winner. Donkey Kong and his friends must swing their way through the jungle to get the medallion back and, along the way, rescue Diddy, Dixie, and Funky Kong from King K. Rool's minions. A unique control system lets you swing through the trees and spin to build up momentum for a mighty leap. Innovative level design combines elements of platform and puzzle games: Grab gears and spin to crank doors open. Watch out for bolts that loosen as you spin, or you might find yourself falling flat. You'll need steady hands to make the leap-of-faith that takes you to the treetops.

People don't like this game??? The fuck???

Multiple weeks. You win dk king of swing. I like the spritework, but other than that it's pretty gimmicky. Worth a shot if you like monkeys.

Surprisingly fun and addicting ngl.
It's was very clearly made on the cheap, and really has no reason to be a Donkey Kong game, but for what it was I thought it was pretty creative and didn't overstay its welcome.

King of Swing looks pretty and I love the spritework, but that's all I can really say about it. The pegboard stuff is a neat idea, but it never really did anything inventive and it honestly was frustrating to deal with at points due to the floatiness of DK's control. It's not horrible but it ain't good to me either. It's a very gimmicky DK game.

bitches on this website really making you feel like a weirdo for fucking with some nice portable donkey kong swinging game. jungle climber on the ds is good too.

Big ape swinging, rotation around the z-axis for all good boys and girls. Bravo, what a masterpiece, this game is pure simian sickness. I am down astronomic for this Triple Ape title. It'd be perfect if Monkey Kong rotated faster doe aint gonna ngl
