Loved the main game. Over 200 hours of play, and I’m already on my third playthrough. At this point, I should probably list it as a part-time job on my résumé. The base game alone is worth $70 — especially if you went physical, since it’ll always hold a $50 trade or resale value. (Not that I’d ever trade mine, but hey, nice to know it’s basically gaming currency.) So when Nintendo surprise-dropped the DLC on Friday 9/12 for $20, it was a no-brainer. And wow — what a treat. This expansion is a big, glorious rogue-like romp across six of the game’s areas, plus a brand-new Donkey Kong Island. You can even decorate it with nearly 100 collectible 3D statues, which I’m proudly hoarding like a pixelated interior designer with a banana obsession. The game eases you in, but once you climb from difficulty levels 2 through 6, things get serious fast. Each new layer adds more devious layouts, and the challenge ramps up harder than a Mario Kart blue shell. I’m already 20+ hours deep into the DLC, nowhere near done with all the layers, and I’ve only collected 40 out of 100 statues. So yes, this thing has **** short: the DLC is fun, frantic, and dangerously addictive arcade gaming. It’s absolutely worth $20. Stop whining that Nintendo should’ve made it free — the base game was already absurdly generous. If you love rogue-likes and Donkey Kong, this is an instant buy. If you’re too busy being mad about the price… then don’t buy it. We’ll be over here having fun while you yell at clouds. :)
