Item Description
In 1994, magazine screenshots of Donkey Kong Country looked almost too good to be real for a Super Nintendo game. Rare had modeled its jungle heroes on high-end Silicon Graphics workstations and converted them into pre-rendered sprites, giving the SNES a look nobody expected from 16-bit hardware just as 32-bit consoles were on the horizon. It also reinvented Donkey Kong himself, complete with his red necktie, a quick-footed nephew in Diddy Kong and a whole family of supporting Kongs.
Under the visuals sits a tight, satisfying platformer. You swap between Donkey Kong's raw power and Diddy's speed as you work through lush jungles, icy slopes, murky reefs, temples, factories and the runaway mine cart tracks that became the stuff of legend, all to reclaim the banana hoard stolen by King K. Rool and his Kremling army. Barrel cannons fling you across chasms, KONG letters and bonus barrels reward explorers, and animal friends like Rambi the rhino, Enguarde the swordfish and Expresso the ostrich turn up when you need them most. Cranky Kong heckles you with hints, Funky Kong flies you between worlds and Candy Kong lets you save. Two players can share the adventure too, either taking turns or teaming up as the Kong duo.
The soundtrack, led by David Wise with Eveline Fischer and Robin Beanland, shifts to match each environment, from the breezy rhythms of the opening jungle to Aquatic Ambience, the drifting underwater theme that showed how much atmosphere the SNES sound chip could carry. Put on headphones and it can pull you straight back to a childhood afternoon without warning.
Donkey Kong Country sold more than nine million copies, ranking among the best-selling games on the system, and launched a trilogy and then a franchise that continued with Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze. The original is still the purest version of the formula: the first time Rambi crashes through a hidden wall, the white-knuckle mine cart rides, and the final showdown with K. Rool on the deck of the Gangplank Galleon. On a real Super Nintendo, those pre-rendered sprites look exactly the way Rare meant them to.

About the game
Donkey Kong Country is a side scrolling platformer by British developers Rare in 1994. It featured revolutionary pre-rendered 3D graphics that give the game a very unique look compared to most other games on consoles at the time. The two playable characters featured in the game are the titular character, Donkey Kong and his nephew, Diddy Kong. Together the two swing, climb, jump, swim, cartwheel, ride animals, and blast out of barrels on their way to recover their stolen bannanas from the evil King K. Rool and his Kremling army. The adventure takes you through a variety of different environments and levels that continually change up gameplay. Donkey Kong Country also provides plenty of opportunities for exploration with almost every level having a multitude of collectible, shortcuts, and hidden bonus areas.
