I now have the complete trilogy for BOTH Game Boy Advance and Super Nintendo! Interestingly, about twelve years ago, I rented this game as well as Super Mario World (which I already owned), while I was on a two-week trip to visit my Grandfather who was dying of cancer. I bought Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble to complete my Donkey Kong Country Player's Choice Edition Set. It looks like new! The booklet is in PERFECT condition! Bananas sometimes point the way, balloons and KONG Letters give you extra lives, and coins give you bonus points, let you play Swanky's games, and help you pay for items. Treasures and items are important as well. You'll find many other kinds of barrels as you go. Star Barrels act as save points, TNT Barrels explode when thrown, Bonus Barrels let you play bonus round games, and Invincibility Barrels let you gain temporary invincibility. In Donkey Kong Country 3, as in the first two games in the series, barrels play a significant role in the action.

Enemies you must defeat include: the springy tailed Re-Koil Nibbla, the hungry fish Buzz the bee Sneek, the sneaky rat the coin-protecting alligator named Koin Bristels, the rolling hedgehog and Swoopy, the sharp-beaked bird. Throughout this epic game, you'll find animal friends that you can ride, such as Enguarde the Swordfish, Squawks the Parrot, and Squitter the Spider. When you are Dixie, you can throw Kiddy and steer him to drop down fragile holes.

To enable you to reach places high places, you can throw Dixie when controlling Kiddy. Both characters can swim, run, jump, swing, throw barrels, climb, and ride vehicles, such as Funky's hovercraft, which can be used to explore further sections of the map. Also, he can skim across water and power roll into bad guys. Kiddy's main asset is his strength: he can reveal hidden areas by breaking down doors and smashing the ground. Dixie's primary strengths involve her pony tail, which enables her to form a Helicopter Spin, which can be used to whip enemies or make incredibly long leaps. Also new to this series are Banana Birds, which help you save your progress.Īs you progress through this game's many exotic tropical worlds, you (or you and a friend alternating) will control both Dixie and Kiddy Kong.

There are 13 of these helpful bears throughout the game, including Blunder, who gives out secrets Barter, who swaps items Barnacle, who runs the gift shop and Benny and Bjorn, twins who run the ski lifts on the mountains. Donkey Kong Country 3 plays very much like the first two games in the series, but there are some new features, namely the Brothers Bear.
