Many of you know the wonderful world that is Donkey Kong Country since the reboot that Nintendo released earlier this year, but if you were fortunate to grow up in the 90's like myself, you experienced the original Donkey Kong Country.
We all remember the graphics and the beautiful rows of bananas that Donkey Kong Country had. The graphics were surprisingly some of the best for it's time in my opinion. The 90's was all about the blocky figures and terrible 3D graphics, but Donkey Kong Country seemed to pull it off without looking too terrible.
The main plot of DK Country was going from land to land collecting puzzle pieces, golden K-O-N-G letters, balloons and bananas in order to reach the final level and recover your banana hoard thats been stolen by the Kremlings. I think what was most captivating to me was the different types of tasks that you had to preform based on each level. My favorite was definitely when you were in mine shafts and DK and Ditty Kong would ride in this tiny cart and jump over broken railing or duck stalactites. Even though its old, this game will keep you playing for hours on end and thats why it's number 6 in my Top Ten Childhood Games.
