Tropical Freeze is a pinnacle of modern 2D platform games, offering an immense challenge while improving on the original, much revered original trilogy. Funky Kong's inclusion is clearly well-intentioned.

A highly competent 2D platformer, but one so utterly devoid of any new ideas it's really only for the nostalgic and those desperate to play something new(-ish) on the Switch.
Extremely well-designed levels and some masterfully orchestrated mine cart stages; Good use of a 3D camera to enhance 2D gameplay; Great music
Painfully predictable from the very first moment; Visually unremarkable and with some very dull secrets and special abilities; Unfairly expensive
Tropical Freeze is great, but has a fair few issues and an insane price tag.
Nintendo's marketing strategy of rereleasing slightly altered versions of critically acclaimed Wii-U games for the Switch continues on with the re-release of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze for the Switch.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is another excellent Wii U game that has found an even better home on the Nintendo Switch.
Creative, varied level design; Looks great; Funky Kong mode makes the game more forgiving for less skilled players
Adds very little besides Funky Kong
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is even better now that its on the Nintendo Switch! Check out Kidzworlds review of the new game!
Varied Levels; Tight Platforming
Not Nintendo's Best Art Style; Full Price Port
Best 2D platformer ever. Best DKC game ever! what more do you need! you owe it to yourself to play this game!
Cubed3 really loved Donkey Kong Country Returns on Wii, and absolutely adored its successor, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze when it hit Wii U. After a short hands-on session with the latter's Switch port, all signs were pointing in the right direction for this to be another superb addition to...
Nintendo has been slowly but surely breathing new life into their Wii U library by porting it over to the Nintendo Switch. The latest game to get this treatment is Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze .
Framerate and resolution are improved; Game is still fabulous; Funky Kong is pretty useful
Not much has changed; Funky makes the game too easy; No idea why ‘lives' are still a thing
Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze's addition of Funky Mode makes it more accessible without reducing the formidable platforming difficulty to a walk in the park. There's still a lot of challenge, even with the extra help Donkey's Funky uncle affords.
