Story
The story starts off with King K. Rool and several Kritters storming through the jungle, having stolen all of Donkey Kong's Golden Bananas. However, this occurs while Donkey Kong, Tiny Kong, Chunky Kong, Diddy Kong, and Lanky Kong are at home, so the Kongs easily follow the Kremling Krew through the jungle upon realizing that their bananas were stolen.

Eventually, the Kongs catch up with K. Rool and his minions and ambush them. Easily dispatching K. Rool's Kritter minions, the Kongs go after the fleeing Kremling king himself. Catching K. Rool, Donkey Kong manages to defeat him using his Super Duper Simian Slam. After K. Rool's defeat, the Kongs take their Golden Bananas back.
