It is quite easy to understand why this game is just as good, if not better, for some players, than the original DKC and DKC2. This game has absolutely everything that is to be expected of a 3rd installment. For its time, this game was the benchmark when it came to video games. Even now, it remains a classic and is still in a leave of its own along with the first two counterparts.
world best game review of year

In other just an awesome game of the year
this game truly is one of the best games of its time. it doesn't take endless hours of grinding to get everything(those who play world of warcraft know exactly what i am talking about.)
there are so many levels. i am amazed at how much they can fit into those old cartridges. it's graphics own any flash games you can play on places like addicting games.
each level has its own unique sound track. lots of levels. love the challenge.
Back with the 3rd installment to the Donkey Kong Country series, Dixie Kong and new friend Kiddy Kong are on a mission to stop K. Krool. In this adventure, K. Krool has kidnapped Donkey and Diddy and it's your job to set them free.
The game play is identical to DKC 1 & 2 (platform style). The graphics are the same as well. Not much is different from the first two other than the levels, bosses, and new bear family side characters you meet throughout the game.
I found this to be the most fun out of the DKC series. Kiddy's character brings back the tough, brut aspect that was absent in DKC 2. Be sure to always keep your eyes open for the dozens of secrets lurking around every level and overworld map. Try your best to get to 103% as fast as you can and see the alternate ending.
Hint: If you see rocks in the lake on the overworld map, they are there for a reason.

While this isn't the best in the series, that spot is reserved for Donkey Kong Country 2, it is by far the actualization of the first two games. There are more worlds, puzzles, and all around entertainment than ever with the option to once again play with or against your best friends.
The story does lack the hero named in the title. Donkey Kong and even Diddy Kong are both nonexistent in this version of the series. While this may be the case, the reprising role of small simian characters goes to Dixie Kong (for those familiar with Donkey Kong Country 2). Levels are much the same as in past installments, linear level running, jumping on enemies, sliding from vine to vine and blasting from barrel to barrel. Its what is expected from a classic Rare game and one from this series.
Bear in mind this is the original cartridge coinciding with the original console (for those that do not know). It was released in 1996 and any wear associated with its age is to be expected. The one I purchased did require some cleaning of the connectors in order for it to operate like new, so similar cases could manifest. With those points in mind I fully recommend this title as one of the jewels that was released during the SNES era of gaming. Its not perfect nor is it flashy by any of todays standards, but it is where gaming in 1996 was for those lacking a 64-bit system (namely the Nintendo 64).
I personally own all of the current generation systems at the time of this review (those being the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Wii). Despite the huge differences in gaming that has evolved in about a decade and a half, I still find myself returning to the Super Nintendo for the classic, nonchalant type of gaming experience.
