Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a perfect fit for the Switch, delivering impeccable platforming goodness with Donkey Kong and his family. It's beautiful both from a visual and auditory standpoint and each level you play has its own identity or unique flavour.
Pros:
  • Excellent platforming mechanics
  • Level design is impeccable
  • New Switch features take the edge off the huge difficulty curve
  • Funky Kong is radical
  • Incredibly good soundtrack
  • Beautiful artistic direction and design
  • A ton of secrets and completionist centric stuff to do
Cons:
  • Controls sometimes feel unresponsive or clunky
  • Steep difficulty curve that can cause some frustration
  • Very tight timing windows on some platforming sections

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Switch review – any port in a storm

A highly competent 2D platformer, but one so utterly devoid of any new ideas it's really only for the nostalgic and those desperate to play something new(-ish) on the Switch.
Pros:
  • Extremely well-designed levels and some masterfully orchestrated mine cart stages
  • Good use of a 3D camera to enhance 2D gameplay
  • Great music
Cons:
  • Painfully predictable from the very first moment
  • Visually unremarkable and with some very dull secrets and special abilities
  • Unfairly expensive

Pros:
  • Great presentation
  • with lush graphics and charming music
  • Incredibly challenging
  • but never feels unbeatable
  • New Kongs encourage different playstyles
Cons:
  • Will simply be too difficult for some tastes
  • Co-op play is a disappointment

Fantastic!! Very challenging so suitable for older gamers ...

Fantastic!! Very challenging so suitable for older gamers too (I'm 21). Lots of collectables and secrets so plenty to keep you busy. Beautiful graphics and music. Feels very well made. Haven't played a DK game before but enjoying it very much.
