Donkey Kong Classics is an NES game released by Nintendo in 1988. It is a compilation of two classic games from the arcade era, Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. The game was released as part of the PlayChoice-10 system, which allowed players to choose between multiple games at the same time.

In Donkey Kong Classics, the player takes control of Mario, who must save his beloved Pauline from the clutches of the titular antagonist, Donkey Kong. The objective of the game is to navigate your way through four different levels while avoiding obstacles and enemies. As you progress through each level, you will encounter various enemies such as barrels, fireballs, and electric sparks that must be avoided or defeated in order to reach the end goal. You can also collect bonus items such as coins and cherries that can be used to purchase bonus lives or extra points.

The first game in the compilation, Donkey Kong, features four levels with increasing difficulty as you progress through them. In this version of the game you must climb ladders and jump over barrels that are thrown by Donkey Kong in order to make it to Pauline at the end of each level. The second game in the compilation is Donkey Kong Jr., where you play as Junior trying to rescue his father from captivity by jumping over obstacles and climbing vines while avoiding enemies such as birds and crocodiles. Each level contains three stages with increasing difficulty until you reach your goal at the end.

The graphics for both games have been improved from their original versions but still retain their classic look and feel. Music for both games has also been updated but still remains true to its 8-bit roots. The controls for both games remain simple yet effective; players can move left or right with one button and jump with another button allowing for easy navigation throughout each level.

Donkey Kong Classics is an excellent package for anyone looking for some classic gaming nostalgia on their Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). With two classic arcade titles included in one package it’s sure to provide hours of entertainment for any fan of classic gaming or even just someone looking for something new to try out on their NES console!
