Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! is the third and final game in the DK Country triology on the Super Nintendo. It is the first and only game to feature Kiddy Kong.

DKC3 features many of the Kongs of the older two installments, such as Funky and Cranky, but it also introduces many new characters such Wrinkly Kong.

Plot

Donkey and Diddy Kong have gone missing and Dixie sets out to find them. Alnog the way, she meets up with Kiddy Kong at Funky's shop and proceeds to find that the entire world is infested with Kremlings.

Characters

  • Cranky Kong - Cranky is only seen at Swanky's sideshow. His aim is to prove that you're nothing special and win at the game.
  • Wrinkly Kong - Wrinkly saves your game at any given time. She also plays a N64 on occasion and hosue the Banana Birds you collect.
  • Swanky Kong - Swanky runs the sideshow, which gives you extra lives when you beat Cranky.
  • Funky Kong - Funky's role is similar to that of the past games; giving you a vehicle to traverse in. His specialty this time is boats that can be upgraded overtime to reach different worlds.

Gameplay

DKC3's character selection is similar to that of the previous two installments. There's a heavy character and a light character, Kiddy and Dixie respectively. Kiddy's weight is often used to break away cracks in the floor, or to kill enemys. Dixie's hairspin returns and can be used to reach normally unreachable places. Other than that, the game's basic outline is the same as the previous two installments of Donkey Kong Country.

Reception

DKC3 is the lowest positively received game out of the three. Despite being a hard, solid platformer, reviewers have disliked it for its cutesy atmosphere in comparision to the previous.
