Donkey Kong Jr. was originally released in the arcades in 1982 as a sequel to Donkey Kong . In this game, Mario plays the antagonist, finally having captured Donkey Kong, and has put the ape in a locked cage. As Donkey Kong Jr. , players will have to make their way through four different levels (Vines, Springboard, Chains and Mario's Hideout) in an attempt to find keys to free the little monkey's father.
Donkey Kong Jr. features gameplay where Junior can defend himself by dropping fruit found around the levels on the heads of his foes. The more foes a piece of fruit hits in a falling sequence, the higher bonus points can be scored. Junior can also avoid enemies more easily by grabbing hold of two chains or vines at a time to climb away faster, or by jumping over his foes.
The game features various obstacles and challenges for Donkey Kong Jr. , including Snapjaws, swooping purple birds, and electric sparks. The final cut scene shows Junior freeing Donkey Kong and both escaping after giving Mario the boot. Once all four levels are cleared, the game levels will start over at a higher difficulty.
Donkey Kong Jr. is an action & adventure game for Atari 2600 , where players control Donkey Kong Jr. as he tries to rescue his father from Mario's clutches. The game requires skill and strategy to navigate the levels and defeat the obstacles, with bonus points awarded for successful fruit drops and enemy eliminations.
