Donkey Kong Bananza
SCORE: 80
A massively huge shout out to everyone that came by my live streams
of Donkey Kong Bananza. I had some fun this Nintendo Switch 2 video
game. It took me around eleven hours to beat Donkey Kong Bananza. I did
not go and check out all of the different side quests. There are things
families can do after beating Donkey Kong Bananza as well. There is even
a little carving 3D images out of a rock mini game in Donkey Kong
Bananza.
Donkey Kong Bananza looks really nice. The fur on DK is fantastic
looking. DK runs across a thirteen year old Pauline. Her singing is a
key game play mechanic in Donkey Kong Bananza. Players use her to unlock
things and areas. DK earns new skills from these elders. So we can
become a stronger ape, snake, zebra, elephant, and more. The zebra can
run fast and make it across fragile platforms in Donkey Kong Bananza.
The elephant form can suck up objects, and then be able to throw things.
Spoilers are coming.
A key game play mechanic in Donkey Kong Bananza is the destructible
environments as we are working our way to the planet core. We fight
certain enemies on our way to the planet core in Donkey Kong Bananza.
Near the end we free King K. Rool and need to fight him for the
Banandium Root. This root will grant anyone their wish. It takes Pauline
back to the surface near the end of the game. Collecting gold is
extremely important in Donkey Kong Bananza. Gold is needed to be able to
progress near the end of the game as well. The only way to get through
certain areas is to pay off certain characters.
Donkey Kong Bananza has a bit of violent content as we fight different
enemies. There are fight zones where we must fight the enemies to
progress. We earn bananas as we complete objectives and get through
certain areas in Donkey Kong Bananza. Get five bananas and you get a
skill point. The skill points will make DK much more powerful in a
plethora of ways.
I am torn on Donkey Kong Bananza. Parts of the game I loved and enjoyed.
I loved the game showing me where to go. At times that was broken
though. I felt like certain parts (like the end) dragged on in this
game. Then I saw the entire play time and felt like it was too short for
the seventy dollar price tag.
