Donkey Kong Country Returns (2010)

Missing multiple kong pieces but this is fantastic. Lots of secrets to find in the levels and while some levels are pretty difficult the player can easily buy multiple lives so a game over death isn't that often a threat. Would recommend for any one wanting a decently challenging platformer.

I felt the difficulty was a bit much with it getting genuinely frustrating at times and all the jigsaw collecting felt a little like a chore but other than that this is a great game that every Wii owner ought to have tried. Great visuals, gameplay very true to the originals and plenty of content as well as a cool soundtrack and co-op mode make it highly recommended.
