Man, Donkey Kong Jr. is tough! Sure, it's fun to swing around as DK's kid and grab those keys, but those birds and sparks are out to get you. I feel bad for the old man trapped in that cage, but I dunno if I've got the skills to make it through all those levels.

Donkey Kong but in reverse with new mechanics

Great classic game. The obvious criticism would be that it's rather short with only a handful of levels before it loops but like Donkey Kong it's still rather enjoyable to pick up and play nearly 40 years later. Responsive gameplay, enjoyable levels (even if there are so few of them), and a fresh protagonist swap from its predecessor make it pretty enjoyable even if you can breeze through all the levels in a short time.

I suppose it says more about me as someone who loves old games that you can just pick up and play more than anything but I love these old Kong games, even if they aren't very long.

This game isn't as fun as the original donkey Kong, but It's still good.
