Great classic game. The obvious criticism would be that it's rather short with only a handful of levels before it loops but like Donkey Kong it's still rather enjoyable to pick up and play nearly 40 years later. Responsive gameplay, enjoyable levels (even if there are so few of them), and a fresh protagonist swap from its predecessor make it pretty enjoyable even if you can breeze through all the levels in a short time.

I suppose it says more about me as someone who loves old games that you can just pick up and play more than anything but I love these old Kong games, even if they aren't very long.

This game isn't as fun as the original donkey Kong, but It's still fun.

Better than Donkey Kong. The platforming is more refined and exciting. I’m particularly fond of stage 3 - Mario’s hideout. Fun stuff! Completed a loop.

More fun than the original IMO. Maybe cus its easier. Cute little jungle setting. Played NES Version via Switch

Mario is without a doubt one of the greatest video game villains

A sequel to the original Donkey Kong where Mario is the villain for the only time. It's ok and average, understandably very short and limited being a very early NES game and all that.
Idk if I liked this better or worse than the original.
