Essentially, | Essentially, it contains the same story as [[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|''Donkey Kong Jr.'']] - [[Donkey Kong]] is trapped by the tricky [[Mario]] and now the ape's son must save him. | ||
==Gameplay== | ==Gameplay== | ||
Donkey Kong is chained to the floor in the top of the upper screen by several locks. Donkey Kong Jr. must hit a [[key]] up to the top screen, and then progress through the bottom screen, jumping over enemies much as Mario jumped over [[barrel]]s in ''Donkey Kong''. When he reaches the top screen, he must hit the key right next to one of the locks, then climb up the chain that trails below the lock. Once he reaches the top, he uses the key to unlock the lock. Then, he must progress back down to the bottom to hit a new key up, and so on. | |||
