Donkey Kong Country Returns Walkthrough

Donkey Kong Country Returns is a platform video game developed exclusively for the Nintendo Wii that was released on November 21, 2010. It is a modernly updated entry in the Donkey Kong Country series which dates back to the first version of the game released in the early 1990's for the Super Nintendo console. Like the other installments in the series, Donkey Kong Country Returns can be played with one player switching between the characters of Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong or it can be played as a co-op adventure with each player taking on one of the specified roles.

One of the major updates to Donkey Kong Country Returns is that real-time visuals have replaced the pre-rendered graphic technique used in the originals.http://wii.ign.com/articles/113/1135734p1.html Another update is that rather than 2 players alternating between gameplay, they can now play together at the same time. Story-wise, there have also been alterations from the original game in that the primary antagonist has been changed from King K. Rool to a band of hypnotized tiki warriors. The character of Diddy Kong has also been changed in that he now possesses a jet pack to fly over difficult areas of the level.

Donkey Kong Country Returns Story

The animals on Donkey Kong Island have been hypnotized by a group of evil tiki invaders who use their influence to steal all the banana's from Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard. Enlisting the help of Diddy, and few other family members, Donkey Kong sets out on an adventure across the island to retrieve his stolen bananas and lift the spell cast upon his animal friends.

Donkey Kong Country Series

Donkey Kong Country was released on the Super Nintendo in 1994 and starred Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong on a quest to recover their stolen stash of bananas. http://cheats.ign.com/objects/006/006855.html In the next two years the game would spawn two sequels, though neither would star Donkey Kong. http://meodia.com/article/301/donkey-kong-country-series-a-retrospective/

In 1995 Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest was released, starring Diddy Kong and newcomer Dixie Kong. Instead of bananas, players were tasked with rescuing the kidnapped Donkey Kong.

In 1996, Dixie Kong's Double Trouble came out and featured Dixie Kong and newcomer Kiddy Kong. The plot for this story involved a kidnapping of both Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.

Donkey Kong Country Returns Gameplay

Basic Gameplay

  • There eight worlds to complete before the game ends, each with a boss to defeat in the world's final level.
  • If you lose one of the two characters at any point during gameplay, you can bring them back into the action by picking up the DK barrel.
  • You can buy special items and extra life at Cranky's store by purchasing them with gold coins.
  • There are a specific amount of gold coins and jigsaw pieces hidden in each level to be found.
  • You can ground pound any plant or container in the near background to uncover bananas or special items. The same is true for any oscillating fan or flower that can be blown on.
  • Almost all enemies can be defeated by jumping on top of them or rolling through them.

Cranky's Items

  • Balloons: These extra lives come in packs of 7, 3 and 1.
  • Heart: This can be temporarily added onto your life for a level of your choice.
  • Golden Key: Allows access to the locked levels in the world and could act as a short cut at times.
  • Vial: Temporarily provides invincibility for any level of your choice.

Gameplay Hints and Tips

  1. Novices of the game may be more comfortable playing as Diddy Kong, because this character has the ability to cling to Donkey Kong's back and sit out some of the more difficult aspects of the game.
  2. Try to protect Diddy Kong as much as possible, because his ability to use a jet pack makes some challenges exceptionally easier than if you attempt them with Donkey Kong.
  3. Defeat flaming enemies by blowing them out, then jumping on top of them.
  4. Some crabs need to be jumped on and then rolled through to get around their claw defenses.
  5. To cross long gaps without Diddy Kong, roll into the opening then jump just before you fall below the screen.
  6. Collect all the jigsaw pieces to unlock the bonus level at the end of the game.
  7. Before jumping into the barrel that ends the level, watch the rotating items and time it so that when you enter the barrel you pick up an extra life.
  8. Always move left at the beginning of each level, then jump, roll or ground pound to uncover any hidden items or bonus areas.
