Version FAQ
What's the difference from the original Donkey Kong?
The key difference is the perspective. You play as the hero trying to rescue Donkey Kong from the clutches of Mario, the antagonist.
Who are the main enemies, and how do I identify them?
Be watchful of Snapjaws (piranha-like enemies on lines, sometimes holding keys they release upon destruction) and Nitpickers (pesky birds).
Are there different levels in the game?
Yes, but not as conventionally as many games, though similar to its predecessor. Levels cycle through multiple stages across vine, chains, conveyors, and more before re-encouterng Mario.
