I played several Donkey Kong games during the years, especially on Game Boy. Unfortunately the art style put me off on this one, as well as the control, as weird as this sounds. The controls are very good, however the mechanics with rolling, grabbing and the variety of partners (Dixie is the best) as well as the button placement was too uncomfortable. But the art style, I don't know, the penguins and enemies, the whole "freeze" topic was putting me so much off. I only got to World 5 and didn't feel like continuing, although I'm up for challenging games.

Overall a solid "fallout" type game with nice world building and story. However, it lacks quite some variation in enemies and fighting them. Once I became a sniper popping heads within slowmotion it got a bit simple. The companions didn't grew on me very much. The game is polished, though. The art style was be subjectively off sometimes. I got this with my CPU and as a first game after building a PC in a long time I expected the graphics to have a bit more punch, hence why I put it on backlog for quite some time.
Won't get the DLC, looks quite the same to me.

The frame drops are so weird it kept me from enjoying it completely.
It's a good game and a nice retrospective on the GB classic. The shovel made me dig up the trauma (haha) I got when playing the original, trying to dig up everything everywhere.
However, some dungeons were too confusing in the original and still are. Finding the one staircase I always missed, it's a bit frustrating.
All in all, it's a solid classic Zelda, but not a full price game and I am happy the series evolved.
