Traverse islands packed with platforming perfection and nonstop action as the classic Kongs in the original game, or mix things up by playing the story as Funky Kong in new Funky Mode!Īrctic invaders have turned Donkey Kong Island into their personal frozen fortress, and it’s up to you to save the day.
