[[Donkey Kong]] breaks into [[Stanley]]'s greenhouse and goes to hang in the rafters where he stirs up nests of bugs, which will destroy Stanley's [[flower (Donkey Kong 3)|flower]]s in revenge. Armed with a [[Sprayer]], Stanley must destroy the [[bee]]s and chase Donkey Kong away before he eats all five of his flowers. If Stanley is defeated, the insects immediately eat him, though this is removed in the NES port. | [[Donkey Kong]] breaks into [[Stanley]]'s greenhouse and goes to hang in the rafters where he stirs up nests of bugs, which will destroy Stanley's [[flower (Donkey Kong 3)|flower]]s in revenge.

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 screens per level, and once the player completes all three, they return to the first. Throughout the screens are scattered various enemies: [[Buzzbee]]s, [[Creepy|Creepies]], [[Super Bee]]s, [[Vine Eater]]s, [[Beespy|Beespies]] which shatter into stingers when destroyed, [[Attacker]]s, [[Kabutomushi]], and [[Butterfly (Donkey Kong 3)|Butterflies]]. Buzzbees and Butterflies attempt to steal [[Stanley]]'s [[flower (Donkey Kong 3)|flower]]s, and must be destroyed before reaching the plants. [[Donkey Kong]] himself hangs from two vines at the top of the screen. Spraying him drives him upwards and eventually off the screen to win. In the arcade version, defeating him in the [[greenhouse (yellow)|yellow greenhouse]] causes his head to be pushed into a [[beehive]]. Stanley automatically moves out of his way as Donkey Kong falls, where the beehive splits in half. He becomes stunned, and Stanley does a victory dance.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwY6zEYittw Gameplay of the arcade version.]</ref> In the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] version, the beehive falls on his head, but the rest of the cutscene is absent.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFrsivMbaO0 Gameplay of the NES version]</ref> | |||
The [[greenhouse (gray)|gray greenhouse]] never appears in the first round. The yellow greenhouse directly follows the [[greenhouse (blue)|blue greenhouse]], but the gray greenhouse is included in all rounds following the first. The blue greenhouse is repeated from the 159th screen to the 255th screen. The game then loops back to the first round which skips the gray greenhouse. | |||
In some stages, a [[Super Sprayer]] can be found, attached to the vines Donkey Kong hangs by. When he is pushed up to its levels, it falls, allowing Stanley to equip it for a limited time. It turns his insecticide yellow and it becomes more powerful, even being able to defeat Creepies. | |||
