''Donkey Kong'' stars Mario, who attempts to reach the top of a [[Construction Site|construction site]] where Lady is held captive. He can walk along platforms, jump, and climb [[ladder]]s as well. In the process, Donkey Kong may attempt to hinder Mario from a higher location by sending obstacles at him. Mario has the ability to jump over these obstacles or obliterate them using a [[Hammer]]; in both cases, he obtains several points that are added to a [[score]]. However, if Mario ends up falling off the side of a platform and lands on one below him (or none), and the height difference is greater than Mario's, he loses a life. Each time Mario reaches Lady, Donkey Kong will carry her away on a pair of ladders to the next level until the fourth stage, where he is defeated upon completion.
