Donkey Kong Land 2 follows Donkey Kong as he is captured by the evil Kaptain K. Rool, leaving Diddy and Dixie Kong to save the day in this side-scrolling adventure. Fortunately, they will have plenty of help along the way from their friends.
The gameplay of Donkey Kong Land 2 is similar to its predecessor, with platform jumping and banana collecting remaining core parts of the game experience. The pre-rendered three dimensional models used in the game provide visually appealing graphics.
