Let's Play Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (pt34) 5-A Beehive Brawl
3Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a side-scrolling platformer, this is the Switch version.
The fifth installment in the Donkey Kong Country series, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is the direct sequel to the 2010 Wii game Donkey Kong Country Returns.
The story begins at Donkey Kong's hut, where the Kongs are celebrating his birthday.
Suddenly, one of the balloons flies off the Kong house and over the sea, where Snowmad ships are stationed.
Far away from the island, a Pointy Tuck watches over them, locating the Kong house and relaying info to their leader, shrouded in a dark silhouette.
Upon the leader nodding their approval, the Pointy Tucks bring him a horn which he blows, creating a large amount of wind, as well as an ice dragon.
Just as he is about to blow the candle out of the fire, Donkey Kong notices a mysterious snowflake that appears and puts out the candle on his birthday cake.
He turns away with a frustrated look on his face as he hears an uproar, and he and the other Kongs exit the house.
The ice dragon from earlier flies toward Donkey Kong Island, turning the sea under it to ice.
The Kongs are then blown away from the island by the ice dragon's intense winds, landing on the Lost Mangroves island and the game starts.
The game continues on from the side-scrolling platform gameplay of the Donkey Kong Country series and sees Donkey Kong and his friends travelling through ten different islands in order to defeat the Snowmads.
Each level contains various Kong letters and puzzle pieces, some of which require specific partners to reach, which unlock various bonuses and hidden levels.
The Time Attack mode also returns, now featuring online leaderboards, allowing players to view video replays of the top ranked players.
The Nintendo Switch version of the game features Funky Kong as a new playable character.
In the optional easier Funky Mode, Funky Kong is playable with no possible companions, along with an option to switch between him and Donkey Kong.
Unlike Donkey Kong in the game's normal mode, Funky Kong comes with five hit points instead of two, while he is also able to double-jump, hover in mid-air, stand on spikes and breathe underwater for an unlimited time.
When DK is played, he can gain a companion and each Kong has three hit points.
