### 1/5 — Oh my God, what the heck is this game?

*2026-01-20, version 1.03*

This game sucks. It’s the worst game I have ever played. Why did you have to rip off donkey Kong like seriously? If you get an Nintendo switch, you can play the game donkey Kong with Bonanza I mean the switch too seriously what the heck is this game?

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2023-09-09, version 1.03*

My grandson plays his gameboy all the time. He requested something like “Monkey Kong Freeze” or something. So I looked it up on this store and found this game for free. So I showed him and he said it was a ripoff of the real Kong and this is a fake kong. Delete this kong ripoff now

### 1/5 — My thoughts…

*2023-07-25*

This is the most racist game ever to exist, monkeys/gorillas deserve rights. I hate this game because of what it’s done to my mental health. Get this game off the App Store. I hate it. Also, it’s gameplay is a cheap ripoff of the OG donkey Kong. So 1 star loser 🤣

### 1/5 — TGIF

*2023-07-18, version 1.03*

翻訳技術っていつになったら進歩するんだろうな( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

### 2/5 — Blonkey Kong

*2023-06-17, version 1.03*

I want the real Donkey Kong. Not these rip off games.

### 4/5 — Good but needs improvement

*2023-06-01, version 1.03*

This game is good but the 4th level is just really hard and goofy ah worthy cuz this entire game is a goofy ah meme but I think that’s good but one thing. Can you make it so the game is a bit more like donkey Kong please
