Donkey Kong Land 2 review. Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow review of Donkey Kong Land 2 for the Game Boy developed by Rare and published by Nintendo.

In the middle of the 1990s, there seemed to be no end to Donkey Kong mania. And the games were so good, no one cared! Case in point, Donkey Kong Land 2. Released to the Game Boy in 1996, it’s hard to believe this game is even running on such old, outdated hardware. But it is, and it’s amazing. Donkey Kong Land 2 is essentially a stripped-down Game Boy version of the Super NES classic, Donkey Kong Country 2. Players control Diddy and Dixie Kong on their quest to save Donkey Kong, who was kidnapped again. Smells like Donkey Kong, Jr. up in here! Donkey Kong Land 2 is an incredible platformer, offering the same gameplay and incredible style of graphics as the Country series on the Super NES. And it even comes in a yellow Game Boy cartridge. Donkey Kong Land 2 is a single-player Game Boy game and kind of a miracle.

This video review features video gameplay footage of Donkey Kong Land 2 for the Game Boy and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Derek.
