Description
Donkey and Diddy Kong have gone missing and only Dixie Kong can find them. While searching for her friends, Dixie stumbles upon the Kremling’s mainland base and a new foe to challenge. Luckily, Kiddy Kong (a new member of the Kong team) joins Dixie on her quest to find her missing friends.
Donkey Kong Country 3 plays just like the first two games, with players controlling Dixie and/or Kiddy Kong in a variety of platforming stages. Both characters have their own special talents, which players will need to master if they want to complete the game. Dixie is quick and can float using her pony tail, while Kiddy can smash through certain obstacles. Players will also find new animal friends for our heroes to team with, such as Squawks the coconut spitting bird and Ellie the elephant who can lift barrels using her trunk.
Unlike the first two games, players can move around freely on the map and search for hidden areas. There are also shops players can exchange the coins they find for special items like the mysterious mirror. Players can save their progress between stages by visiting Wrinkly’s Save Cave on the world map.
