Nintendo has reinvented the classic arcade game with a polv multi-character adventure game. The first improvement was in the use of additional characters, each with their vidual strengths and weaknesses. When the game begins, the player only control: key Kong, but as the game progresses, the player must rescue more of the characters and then use them to solve some of the game’s more challenging pu/ylcs. The second improvement is the addition of a variety of other playing options, in cluding a multi-player setting in which two people can do bailie against one another or play together against the computer. Awesome graphics and challenging puzzles make this game more attractive to old er gamers. The extremely smooth game play also leaves very little to be desired. It could be argued that Donkey Kong 64 is just another in Nintendo’s line of adven ture games, which seem to have a lock on the market for attracting both young and old players. Yet, even when compared with such games as Zelda and Glover. Donkey Kong 64 still stands tall. Donkey Kong 64 is worthy of praise from even the most dis criminating game player.
