SEGA's take on Donkey Kong is certainly a looker, with expressive sprites and plenty of moving objects that outclass most other arcade games released in 1983. Unfortunately, it lacks the joyful simplicity of its inspiration, with an isometric viewpoint making the simple act of moving and dodging more ambiguous and challenging. It's an interesting game with a probably more interesting legacy due to the game's relationship with then-arcade board manufacturer ikegami tsushinki. The game, when judged on its own merits however, is just okay.
