Absolute clinic in platforming, insanely intense boss fights, soulful and unique graphics, timeless soundtrack, very engaging enemies, and one of the most unique mechanics in eggs.
1990
A little long, a lot of extras to find, boring soundtrack, cryptic, very tight movement. Otherwise a must play for any retro game fan, if you haven't already somehow.
How this game differs from other entries in the DKC series is the sheer volume of shit to do. What made the old school donkeys shine was the simplicity and technicality of the platforming and movement. Trop take this to 11 with all kinds of shit for you to interact with while you're moving through very precise platforms and janky physics. Perhaps we were all spoiled with DKC 2 and other entries are held to that standard, but Trop is a beautiful game that executes its myriad of ideas well, despite the cramped feeling of the game.

Not taking questions from those who haven't played it.
1999
This game is amazing. More content than you can shake a banana at, insane boss fights, ear-worm level soundtrack. Fight me. It's not trendy to hate this game anymore, especially if you've never played it.
2005
I had to take a break with this game. I got to the final boss and I had to stop playing because I didn't want the game to end. Eventually I beat it but what a rollercoaster.
2002
It's very clear this game had to walk in order for the sequel to run.
Quite possibly the worst game I've ever played across the spectrum. Graphics, audio, gameplay, story, all poopoo. I can't believe I paid full price for this when it was new.
1987
Fuck the Leafs.
1987
Difficult, infinitely spawning enemies that are affected by the console's limitations. And there's fucking wind. Still satisfying to beat.
1987
When this game wants you dead, you die. Iconic levels and weapons, janky yet precise platforming, and enemies that spawn on your head (infinitely)
Janky ass, busted ass, and it has the infamous level. Think a more zoomed in ninja gaiden, except it somehow performs worse and is less forgiving.
Excellent intro to the series. I always recommend this to people who have never played a Zelda before. Just don't get caught in the side quests.
2015
You aren't ready for this game.
2018
One of the best pure platformers I've ever played.
