------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------- [ DONKEY KONG JR. FAQ/WALKTHROUGH]----------------- ---------------------------------[by Ice Queen Zero]--------------------------- ------------------------------------ [ E-reader ] ----------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- o---------------------o INTRODUCTION o---------------------o Donkey Kong Jr. takes place after the events of Donkey Kong. It has been ported to multiple systems but some of them have one level completely removed from the game for storage purposes. Luckily, the NES version which the e-Reader port of this game retained all four levels unlike the previous game before it which cut out the pie factory level. The e-Reader is an add-on to the Nintendo Gameboy Advance which allowed the user to scan cards that let you play classic games and Donkey Kong Jr. was one of them. o---------------------o DISCLAIMER o---------------------o Donkey Kong Jr. and its characters are trademarks of Nintendo and all of its copyrights belong to them.

As Donkey Kong Jr., your goal is to go through 4 levels of doging obstacles like vine gators, birds, and sparks to rescue your father from the Mario before he is shipped off to the Zoo. o---------------------o MEET THE CAST o---------------------o Donkey Kong Jr. He is the hero of this game. His mission is to rescue his father from the clutches of Mario. He may be a baby but he is strong as you'll find out when he finally rescue your dad, he can hold him over his head. Mario He was the hero of the first game but now he is your number one enemy of the game. He has captured your father and is preparing to ship him off to the zoo. Donkey Kong Your father who you are trying to rescue. duh! Vine Gator Red They move around the stage and go up and down the vines and switch off to other vines if any in the vicinity. Vine Gator Blue Unlike thier red counterparts, the blue ones will run down a vine and once they reach the end of the rope, they disappear into the bottom of the screen Bird These appear in the 2nd level and occassionally drop eggs at you. They are not much of a threat, just be sure one doesn't collide into you Spark sphere These appear in the 3rd level, they revolve around one platform at a time. They are easy to hop over if they are coming at you. Spark Bit These appear in the 3rd level, unlike the spheres they can travel with the platforms. Watch out for these guys. o---------------------o SMALL BRIEFING o---------------------o There are fruits throughout the stages that you can grab for bonus points but there's an extra bonus involved. As they fall, they will kill any enemy that is unfortunate to be hit by the fallen fruit. Now climbing down, or more like sliding down, you do so at super speed. Aside from the enemies, there are also hazards in the stage you must avoid to stay alive. One of the main hazards is falling from too high. If you climb up one vine alone, then you'll move up slowly. But if you climb up two vines at ones, you go up much faster. o---------------------o GAMEPLAY o---------------------o There are four levels in the game that start one after the other unlike in the arcade where you play one level then go on to the final showdown then another is available upon replay. o---------o | LEVEL 1 | o---------o The best way to complete this level is to climb to the top and drop the fruit onto the red gator. Go back down a little and move to the next rope past the platform and climb all the way down. Jump across the trees below and maneuver your way to the top safely. o---------o | LEVEL 2 | o---------o There is a huge shortcut in this level. If you bounce off the spring just right then you'll boost high enough to land on the platform moving above, grab onto the retracting grip and hold on until you grab the chain on the very left and from there, move through the chains until you reach the top and hop over any birds coming at you. o---------o | LEVEL 3 | o---------o As long as you hop over the sparks that are sphered shaped then you should be fine once you reach the top. You have the spark bits to worry about most since they can switch platforms on you. o---------o | LEVEL 4 | o---------o For a final level, this is very easy. All you got to do is push the keys up into the locks and avoid the gators going up and down the vines. Success on this level will rescue your dear ol' dad and Mario will be kicked to the curb which he deserves. o---------------------o CREDITS o---------------------o Nintendo for making this game.
