A pretty good portable version of DKC2. The camera is miles better than Donkey Kong Land 1. A good healthy mix of levels here and they kept a lot from the SNES version intact.
Controls and plays better than DK Land 1, but is less unique. No exclusive environments, levels are different but feel like easier versions of their SNES counterparts. Definitely DKC2, but for car rides.
But the levels are different! But its the same gimmicks as DKC2 SNES.
Also the sprites glitch a lot. Sometimes it felt like a bootleg. It seems to do this on native hardware, emulation, and the Analogue Pocket so its just a game thing. Really weird.

Unlike the first Donkey Kong Land game, this game has way more in common with Country 2, for better and for worse.
At best, it plays and feels more or less like DKC2, albeit with the colour and screen-size limitations. But it also fails to offer anything new that someone who has already played DKC2 hasn't seen before.
The levels have different layouts, yes. But for the most part they play off the same gimmicks, same level themes and mostly the same music as well.
Worth playing if you're DESPERATE for more DKC2.
