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 ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2021-02-16, version 1.03* I know it’s a Donkey Kong ripoff but it’s still pretty fun ### 1/5 — Peor juego *2020-06-05, version 1.03* No me gusta empezar de nuevo otra vez ### 1/5 — Donkey Kong rip off *2020-05-23, version 1.03* How dare they rip off donkey Kong?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 3/5 — This is ok *2020-05-17, version 1.03* Gives 5 lives to get past 3 levels ### 1/5 — Blocky Kong *2020-04-10, version 1.03* This game is fun but it needs allot of improvement. Such as level saves so if you get to the 4 levels and you die you have to start all over again from the beginning should just start at that level ### 2/5 — OK game *2019-12-14, version 1.03* I do enjoy the concept of this game, it’s a lighthearted spinoff of the original Donkey Kong. But it’s WAY too difficult. You only have three lives, and when you lose them all (Which happens VERY often) it restarts you at the first level. ### 4/5 — The game!!! *2019-11-16, version 1.03* So my brother plays the game every day and he dies on the game.Meanwhile he dousn’t get into enytrouble who made this game they are really good and very silly❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ### 1/5 — El peor juego del mundo *2019-09-29, version 1.03* Es muy malo carece de jugabilidad y tiene una dificultad muy alta horrible ### 2/5 — 2 *2019-08-09, version 1.03* Él juego seria mejor si se pudiera guardar los avances , cuando se pierda se vuelve al comienzo y eso aburre ### 1/5 — Copy *2019-03-11, version 1.03* This is a copy of the original Nintendo game donkey Kong @1981 Nintendo it is fun but it’s just a copy ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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 — Bro these game is buggy *2025-10-22, version 1.03* I weave it but i die,i cant get past the barrels this game is trash ### 1/5 — Sad *2023-12-24, version 1.03* Can’t sex the kong :( ### 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 ͡°) ### 1/5 — IT TO HARD TO BEAT *2022-07-27, version 1.03* Why would make a hard.if YOU DON’T MAKE DIFFICULTIES EASY,NORMAL AND HARD! YoU MuSt PaY 1000000$ OK! ### 1/5 — ただ単に *2022-06-17, version 1.03* レビューだけ書き込みしたいからダウンロードしました。ゲーム自体はプレイしたいともする気もありません！ 書き込みに対して！日本語で書いてるけど全て日本人じゃないでしょ！翻訳機通して書き込んでるから文法がカタコトでしょ！製作者さん明らかにヤラセで書いてるの日本人にはバレてますよ！ ### 1/5 — SHUT YOUR VIDE0 GAME FACE HOLE *2020-10-16, version 1.03* HEY EVERYBODY, THIS GAME IS JUST A RIPOFF OF DONKEY KONG ### 1/5 — Very hard *2020-09-13, version 1.03* I was looking forward to this game but I didn’t realise that it was very hard so I consider adding stopping to make it easier ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I really liked this game as it is really family friendly to play with your kids *2025-06-14, version 1.03* Sigma game ### 5/5 — Blocky Kong *2024-04-19, version 1.03* Good games I likes that!

I still have it and every time I play it and as soon as the music of this game comes on it takes me back to the first lockdown as I spent a good while playing it and I love it. ### 5/5 — Awesome 😉 *2021-01-13, version 1.03* I like how the title you see the Kong taken the food ### 5/5 — Really great game! *2019-12-20, version 1.03* I think everyone should get this game.This is a challenging game and also great for road trips. ### 5/5 — You Can Complete *2019-05-24, version 1.03* To complete the level, you have to avoid all the stuff that the Gorilla throws. To complete a platform, get to the other side while avoiding the stuff. ### 5/5 — Challenging *2017-08-30, version 1.03* Fun game, very hard given you start at the beginning after losing all lives!! My best is only 21 so far and I can't stop wanting to beat my best score..! Would love this more if there was an ad free version! Thank you for the fun game! ### 5/5 — Super addictive *2017-08-13, version 1.03* This game captures the essence of the original 1984 Donkey Kong without being a rip off...... Very fun very addictive simple mindless fun. And the price is right! Free :-) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
