Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island reviewed by HeartBits VG
Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by HeartBits VG
They have adapted DK very well to the 3D plan.
Destruction is a mechanism that suits the character very well.
This gives you many ways to solve puzzles.
Brings RPG elements and even customization.
This new phase of the character is very good.
So much destruction then makes the game of tug-of-war
At that moment, I feel that the camera is very close to the character.

Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by Numerama
Real mass destruction
Visually successful
Lots of bananas to pick, for as many hours of fun.
It's a bit slow (sometimes)
Main campaign a bit too simple
Still very little effort on the storytelling.

More Donkey Kong Bananza is never a bad thing
Satisfying gameplay loop
Bigger DLC than I was expecting
May get repetitive for some

Emerald Rush is awesome
Compelling gameplay loop
Encourages repeated runs
DK Island adds little
DLC feels a little thin
For roguelite fans only

Nintendo Life
Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island reviewed by Nintendo Life
Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by Nintendo Life
A wonderfully addictive roguelike game mode
DK Island looks as beautiful as you'd expect
Heaps of rewards means there's plenty of replayability
It's a perfect excuse to dive back into Nintendo's best platformer in years
Content doesn't match the price tag
DK Island feels empty without Emerald Rush
No new collectibles feel like a missed opportunity
If you don't vibe with the roguelike, there's nothing here for you

Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by tuttoteK
The DK island is back in all its splendor...
The roguelike reinvention is very interesting...
The expansion offers solutions to grinding...
... with nothing else to keep him company
... but alone, it doesn't do much.
... by adding other elements to justify oneself

Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by Switch-Actu
DK Island and its nods
The rogue-like aspect is interesting for a DK
More and more demolition
A good balance of abilities and effects to unlock.
Good replay value?
tarnished by an excessive repetitiveness
Some layers not all suitable for the experience
Not enough secrets on DK island
Not engaging enough in the long run

Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by NextN
The island that is the flagship of the DLC is beautiful and full of nods.
The argument acts as a brief epilogue for the Void Company trio.
The roguelike mode of hunting emeralds still has room for improvement.
Maybe a little expensive for what it offers.

Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island reviewed by GameOver
Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by GameOver
The island of DK in its most beautiful version, with familiar landscapes and characters.
The roguelite mechanism of the expansion and the return to the planet's underground from a new perspective...
...which quickly ends up becoming boring, even tedious.
Power-ups and rewards that do not match the roguelite genre and lack imagination and practicality.
A very poor relationship between the content and the value of the offer.

Review Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island by GameReactor
Well thought out new mode to keep playing for many more hours
Extremely weird and difficult Banandiumtone puzzles
DK Island is pretty
even if it feels like an undeservedly soulless addition
Timing and value seem completely off
