Story
The game begins with a look around Donkey Kong's Island, and it shows Donkey Kong riding away on a boat similar to that of the one which Lanky Kong used to fight Pufftoss in the first game. It them cuts to DK driving away while some parrots and Squawks fly by. Once landing, DK reaches and island called The Island of Kong. Donkey Kong gets out of the boat and walks across the sand into a tall, grey building. Inside is where you first get to play. You walk up the spiral staircase built upon the walls until you reach a top floor. Halfway through you will pick up watermelon slices. These are used as health. DK has reached the top and you hear a faint echo. You walk to the center of the floor and put down a piece of watermelon. A shrine in front of you, awakes. "Donkey Kong... Donkey Kong..." it echos. The voice tells of the other six Kongs who came here in search of the Sacred Banana shards that have gone missing. It pleads for you t save them and rescue the shards. You agree and the shrine opens the first area to go to: Skyline Waterfall. You must find the way to go to the zone. In each zone there is 5 Banana shards to collect per Kong; a total of 280 to collect. You will encounter the beasts and golems that live on the island, and you must defeat them to succeed. This is the beginning of the story. After this, the title shows and you go right into gameplay.
