Playing Donkey Kong Land III |
The set was very enjoyable too until:
- Race Against Time: Here I think it would be much more enjoyable if it would not be required to collect every damn bonus coin / dk coin. Should be like the other speed run achievements in country were you just need to finnish with any %.
- Card Matching Wizard: Holy F*** I really wonder if I got to old and stupid or if this is really really that difficult. I feel like like this is the final super boss. Also its bad because you need to pray for some rng which unlocks you some cards right away to even remotely have a chance. I tried this one for ~4 hours and could get two times 32 and 31.
Consider also:
- Add the KONG letter achievements like in the country games which force you to find each letter in the levels. I found these ones quite tricky sometimes but enjoyable to really explorer all
I wouldnt want to play this game again. Why: I never played the land games before. I had a lot of fun to master DKL 1, new levels, partly new music and it had the perfect playing length. DKL 2 and 3 are only same games, like on the SNES. Changed levels, but unfortunately nothing new at all. I just find it very boring and on top of that RARE hasnt made any effort at all. The DKC SNES versions are the best there are. In my opinion it could have been better on the Game Boy, with more ideas and creativity. Of course, it might just be because i have never played the land games before and thats why i dont find them that special ;)
The set was good, it was the hardest of all. This card game, i was lucky on my third or fourth attempt. Doing it in 30 seconds isnt that easy.
The speedrun of 1 hour and 25 minutes: I used YouTube for that, because otherwise i wouldnt have known how to find all the DK coins and bonus coins in such a short time.
Everything else i found easy to master.
Thanks for the set! ♥
