Donkey Kong Jr. is an arcade game released by Nintendo on 1982. The game is the sequel to the game, Donkey Kong.
[edit] Story
The "stupid monkey" is back. Only, this time, he's not throwing barrels at Mario. Nope, this time, he's in a cage, guarded by Mario and his bear traps.
In a role reversal of epic proportions, it's up to Donkey Kong Jr. to jump, climb, avoid the traps, navigate several obstacles, and rescue his dad from Mario's evil clutches.
[edit] Gameplay
Where Donkey Kong had ladders and platforms to climb and jump across, Donkey Kong Junior now has vines and chains to use in addition to platforms. Grabbing one vine or chain causes Junior to climb up slowly or descend very rapidly. Grabbing two vines or chains enables Junior to climb up faster.
Instead of hammers, there are fruits strewn around the structures. Grabbing a fruit gives Junior bonus points and causes it to fall, hitting whatever enemy happens to be in its path of descent and awarding points with each enemy hit.
In the first three screens of each level (which consists of four screens), Junior must reach the top of the screen where the key is. On the fourth screen, Junior must push six keys into six locks in order to free Papa Kong. Completion of these objectives before the bonus timer runs out awards the player with remaining bonus points in the timer.
