Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Review: Money in the Banana Land

Por un escritor de hombre misterioso

If the quality of a platformer can be measured by how long it staves off the obligatory lava level, we're in pretty good shape with Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Nintendo's ground-pounding gorilla now sees his home island beset by the vaguely Germanic Snowmads, cool-climate creatures that show up by the viking boatload, set the stage, and then cover it with a slippery layer of ice. Not that we need the narrative justification to save the jungle and bop the yellow eyebrows off an evil Fiordland Penguin. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is another few-frills, breathlessly paced jaunt in two-dimensional jumping, ducking and dodging all manner of loosely thematic dangers, though it's not quite as polished as the last game in developer Retro's newly commandeered franchise.
