Carl Williams writes, "Castle Kong is a homage to the classic Nintendo arcade game, Donkey Kong. Just look at the video after the jump for proof of that. Drowning Monkeys Games are playing up to the whole “kill screen” thing. They intentionally put one in and if you find it, you can win $5,000. Not bad for playing a game on your Nintendo Switch or PC via Steam."
"Come and check out Jason's review of Castle Kong by Drowning Monkeys, a self-claimed homage to the legendary Donkey Kong!" Jas @ Thumb Culture
Games Asylum: "There’s no easy way to write this review without mentioning Donkey Kong, so we may as well get it out the way. Holding Nintendo’s breakout hit in high regard, developer Drowning Monkeys set about creating their own Donkey Kong-style single-screen platformer, mimicking not just the feel of the original but also its tough-but-fair difficulty level."
Castle Kong is an old-school arcade game that borrows heavily from a game that featured Jump Man, flaws and all. Check out Jason Capp's review for more!
