Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze World 2 Wii U Game Session

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a side-scrolling 2.5D platform game developed by Retro Studios and Monster Games for the Wii U. It is the fifth game in the Donkey Kong Country series and a direct sequel to Donkey Kong Country Returns. It follows the adventure of Donkey Kong and his partner Kongs as they travel back to Donkey Kong Island after the Snowmads, an organization of Vikings-like seafarers, invaded it and sent them away. Throughout their journey, the Kongs must overcome six islands seized by Snowmads. Most levels feature classic platforming where the Kongs need to jump, roll, climb and swing to get to the end of an area, but some levels are traversed in a vehicle such as a Mine Cart or a Rocket Barrel. For the first time in the series, the camera angle can change dynamically in some levels where Blast Barrels or mine carts are found, showing more areas and perspectives of the scenery. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is the first title in the series to feature more than two playable characters, with Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong and Cranky Kong acting as companions of Donkey Kong who provide him additional abilities. The name "Tropical Freeze" is a pun on the term "tropical breeze".
