    I respect the game for what it tried to do and I see that it tried to add a lot of new gameplay mechanics but this was not the way to do it. The game was honestly really fun though and I could see my self going back one day to try it. The problem is that this game alone was one of the main reasons my shoulder buttons failed on my original ds. This game became a joke for that reason, theI respect the game for what it tried to do and I see that it tried to add a lot of new gameplay mechanics but this was not the way to do it.

    This game is one that I was honestly very interested in taking a look at and when everything was set and done, I enjoyed it. The gameplay is really fun and had my attention throughout a good majority of the game, the soundtrack is a generally fun listen, and the characters were really enjoyable. Overall really fun time and improvement over a game that I already had a lot of fun with.

    The development team stuck to its guns with the original concept and fleshed it out with new levels, new elements, and more stuff to beef up the variety and to toughen things up.
  2. We don't like the story, save for the talking banana aliens (fo fanana), and the whole peg grabbing stuff doesn't light our fire, but Jungle Climber is a cute, simplistic adventure game that anyone can get into, and the addition of four person multiplayer adds to its banana eating appeal.
  3. The unique control scheme makes for an interesting change and a lot of fun, while the extra challenge modes provide incentive for much replay.
