I've been a huge fan of DK games since the original Donkey Kong Country came out. I honestly was skeptical that Bananza would be anywhere near as good as all the country games and Donkey Kong 64, so I originally just rented it from Gamefly. I immediately loved the feel of smashing through terrain and spent a good half hour just smashing all the rock around me before even getting the first Banandium Gem. I played it for about 60 hours in my time that I had it rented and decided this game was way too good to not own, so I ended up buying it. It is easily the best game of the Year, the best game on Nintendo Switch 2 and really, one of the best games I've ever played in general.

First off Amazeing re design for DK. Second you can find a lot of secrets in this game each layer feels new and fun to play around in. The game machanices are vary easy to figure out, you mainly run punch and transform on occasion. with the transformations being solid tools that woek well with the levels. Its a full package famevwith hours of story and fun.

If you are a fan of the donkey Kong country games, then this is for you. Bananza is more of an open world and allows you to play how you want. If you want to go around and smash things up for hours you can. If you want to speed through and beat the game, there is that option. There are no limitations on how you play this game. It truly is a game that anyone can pick up and have fun playing.

This is a masterpiece for the Switch 2... The scenery is incredibly gorgeous, and the bosses battles are so exciting. I thought it was just a simple action game, but the story is also quite good. I highly recommend it.

This is game is great for young children, Nintendo has come a long way with the scenery on their games, the bosses are awesome to fight and the story of the game is great

Donkey Kong was purchased for my adult daughter for a gift since she was given the new game system by her spouse. She loves playing it and hasn’t yet beaten the game unlike Super Mario. She’s happy, I’m happy!

We were cautiously optimistic about the game until reviews started coming back that the game is incredible. It is surprising how fun it is to smash and bash so much terrain, and be rewarded for our harmless destruction with gold, fossils, and treasure chests. The game is just challenging enough to feel like you’ve accomplished something but not so difficult as to gatekeep from young or new players.

i really like the different characters, the destruction physics are fun to mess around with, the boss fights are pretty great, and you can really tell that the people who made the game were the same people who made Mario Odyssey and that they actually looked through all the Donkey Kong games to know what they should do for the characters also, i am shocked that this game is only 8 GB when you get it digitally, it does not feel like it's that small

I love that you can basically smash everything one of the best Nintendo switch to game releases to date. Being able to just run around and destroy everything as you please isn't in somewhat i love that you can basically smash everything one of the best Nintendo switch to game releases to date. Being able to just run around and destroy everything as you please is sort of therapeutic. It's like playing within a mini rage room l… It’s a playing within a mini rage room lol. This is the first donkey Kong game I've actually played and I love it 10 out of 10 100% recommend for any switch to owner!

Ok, so I'm an avid Mario and DK fan. I buy every game regardless. This is NOT your left to right scrolling screen average DK game. I have to admit that's what i expected. Diddy Kong is not with you. This is more like Mario Odyssey, a huge 3d world you can interact with everything in. You have to do a lot of smashing of walls and environment. As someone who likes to find everything and complete a game 100% it will drive you nuts. There is a lot hiding in the worlds. Instructions are lacking, it took me awhile to understand what i was supposed to find and do. There is not a lot of combat, its a lot of searching. It's a good game, just not what i was expecting from Donkey Kong!
