Donkey Kong (Game Boy) is a remarkable puzzle-platformer that expands upon the arcade classic with surprising depth. Initially, it looks like a simple port. However, after the familiar four levels, the game opens up into a sprawling adventure with over 90 unique stages. Mario must master new moves to traverse complex environments, solve clever puzzles, and repeatedly outwit Donkey Kong. While occasional control quirks can sometimes cause frustration, the game's creative level design and satisfying sense of progression make it a standout Game Boy title.
