Brawl Stage of the Week: Classic DK

Updated ·2 min read

This week we're featuring another classically themed stage, as the thought of creating retro levels on Brawl seems to fuel stage submissions. This one in particular is an interpretation of the original Donkey Kong arcade game, in which Mario made his first appearance as Jumpman.

Unfortunately, Donkey Kong won't be throwing barrels at you and there are no princesses that need saving. However, if you want a fun brawl on a nostalgia-inducing stage, check out "Classic DK" by blu_j.

Once again, this is a big stage that not even the warp star trick can fully tackle. Still, we tend to like it that way -- there are more places to fight and more places to scramble.

The ladders in this stage are mostly for effect, to invoke the spirit of the oldschool Donkey Kong. There are also a lot of spike traps, so you'll have to be careful not to fall into those as you try to beat up your enemies. Take a look at our gallery walkthrough for a closer look at this massive level.
