The tables have turned, and now Mario has Papa Donkey Kong locked in a cage! Surrounded by jaw-snapping creatures, Donkey Kong Junior climbs and swings across vines to reach a special key. If he's successful, he advances to another screen and must pick up even more keys. He can earn extra points by plucking fruit to bonk his opponents. Sharpen your skills to master three great screens.

This game should be interesting. I have never played it on anything higher than Level 1.

I'm trying to throw down the gaunlet by selecting higher skill levels - particularly as the tournament progresses and we get closer to a winner. Skill 3 was often mooted by Coleco as being equivalent to the difficulty level of the Arcade game - although that may not always be accurate.

 

Good luck to everyone.

I don't mind the higher skill levels...back when I originally played these games I rarely played at a higher skill level than Level 1...just a personal preference (plus I was a wimp and wanted the easiest game possible)...now after years and years of playing video games, none of these games seem as challenging as they used to so the higher skill levels are a welcome change.
