Story

Donkey Kong has broken into Stanley the Bugman's greenhouse. He's hanging in the rafters stirring up nests of Buzzbees and Beespies, which will destroy Stanley's flowers in revenge. Armed with a can of fly spray, Stanley must destroy the bees and chase Donkey Kong away before he wrecks the whole greenhouse.

Gameplay

The game is very simplistic, requiring the player to gather points as the object rather than have any specific long-term goal in mind. There are three rounds, and once the player completes all three, he returns to the first. Throughout the levels are scattered various enemies: Buzzbees, beespies, queen bees which shatter into deadly pieces when destroyed, and creepy caterpillars. The bees attempt to steal Stanley's flowers, and the bees must be destroyed before reaching the plants. Donkey Kong himself hangs from two vines at the top of the screen. Continuous application of bugspray to his bottom will irritate him into climbing upwards and eventually off the screen to win the level. If all bugs are killed on a level, then Donkey Kong in safety will exit the screen and the game will go to next level.

Legacy

Donkey Kong 3 was not as successful as the previous two games, perhaps because its game structure is dramatically different. In the previous games, the player controlled a character who walked and jumped and climbed across various levels while avoiding obstacles. This game, to contrast, was more of a shoot-em-up/platform game. Although it focuses largely around shooting this is not the total focus of the game as you have to simultaneously navigate up and down as well as back on forth on 3 different platform setups. As with the rest of the Donkey Kong series, it was ported to most of Nintendo's gaming systems, including the e-Reader and the NES.
