In this game, [[Donkey Kong]] balances on a [[barrel]] while juggling [[pineapple]]s and avoiding the flaming torches. [[Mario]] watches his performance. Donkey Kong receives a point every time he catches a pineapple. If Donkey Kong loses a pineapple, Mario will laugh at him, resulting in a miss. If Donkey Kong manages to grasp a [[fireball]], he will flail, which also counts as a miss. If Donkey Kong reaches 300 points without any misses, the points will be worth double until he does get a miss. If he has any misses at said score, every miss will be cleared instead. When he gets three misses, the [[Game Over|game is over]]. | In this game, [[Donkey Kong]] balances on a [[barrel]] while juggling [[pineapple]]s and avoiding the flaming torches.
