The main gameplay is largely identical to the ''{{wp|Taiko no Tatsujin}}'' games, which were also designed by the same developers. The player has the option to utilize the DK Bongos or a standard GameCube controller. During gameplay, the player controls [[Donkey Kong]], whose goal is to hit "beats," which scroll across the screen and have to be hit with accurate timing when it moves under a cursor to the very left. Every note passed displays a word on screen, corresponding to how accurately the beat is hit. A combo is displayed if the player hits two or more beats in a row but vanishes if they miss. There are four types of beats:

The player has the option to utilize the DK Bongos or a standard GameCube controller. During gameplay, the player controls [[Donkey Kong]], whose goal is to hit scrolling notes, known as beats. They must hit it with accurate timing when it moves under a cursor on the far left. There are four types of beats (red, light blue, yellow, and purple), and are each associated with a different button. A word appears on screen for every passing note, and the displayed word is based on the accuracy of the player hitting the beat. A combo is displayed if the player hits two or more consecutive beats, but it vanishes if the player misses a beat.

All four gameplay modes (except Challenge) have three levels of difficulty modes, from lowest to highest: Monkey, Chimp, and Gorilla. The second player plays as [[Diddy Kong]] in multiplayer modes.

|'''Street Performance'''<br>1 player
!Description
|Donkey Kong can perform songs and earn coins from doing {{wp|street performance}}s and use them to purchase unlockable content at DK Town. One and two coins are earned per regularly perfectly timed hits, respectively. The number of coins is shown at the bottom, next to [[Ellie]], and a bar at the top right keeps track of how many notes the player hit. The "CLEAR" label in the center is divided into red and yellow sections, representing poor and good performance, respectively. Every note fills the bar more but decreases per each miss. Once the performance is done, the player wins if the bar passes the clear label and gets to keep their coins.

|align="center"|[[File:DKa Street Performance mode.png|320px]]<br>Street Performance
|'''Challenge'''<br>1-2 players
|Based on the concept of {{wp|street performance}}, Donkey Kong can perform songs and earn Coins, which he can use to purchase unlockables at DK Town. During gameplay, Donkey Kong earns two coins for every beat that he hits with perfect timing, or one coin for regularly-timed beats. A coin counter appears next to [[Ellie the Elephant|Ellie]] at the bottom-left with a self-explanatory purpose of keeping count of the number of collected coins.
|An endless run-style mode where the player performs endless songs in a row, kept track by a counter with [[Steel Keg]]s.
 
Additionally, a bar appears at the top-right corner that tracks how many notes the player hit. A "CLEAR" label appears in the center, and it divides the bar into two color-coded segments, red and yellow, which respectively represent poor and good performance. The bar gradually fills up for every note hit by the player, but it contrarily decreases for every missed note. The results are calculated after the song ends; Donkey Kong wins if the bar fills past the Clear label and keeps the Coins that he obtained on the way. If Donkey Kong loses at a challenge, he does not keep the coins.

Aside from a different set of songs, ''Donkey Konga''{{'}}s North American logo is different from the European and Japanese logo. This change is reflected both in-game and on each region's box cover. The Japanese logo has a subtitle, which western versions do not have.

Every title screen depicts a scene of the beach, but the North American one displays a different scene from the European and Japanese versions. The latter two depict a straight view of the beach, which is partially obscured by the game's logo. The North American title screen shows [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] partying at the shore, complete with a pair of bongos and a boombox in the scene.

There is a start-up warning advising players to be wary of vibrations, the sound, and the time of day they play, though this message does not appear in international releases. A health and safety warning is featured in every regional release of ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'', but this exact warning was also featured in the Japanese version of the sequel.

[[File: Donkey Konga Microsite.png|thumb|300px]]
An interactive {{wp|microsite}} to promote ''Donkey Konga'' was developed by Lightmaker and published by Nintendo in 2004. The microsite allows the player to explore Konga Island to find information about ''Donkey Konga'', and contains four levels of an {{wp|Adobe Flash}} version of the game, where the player must control the DK Bongos with the arrow keys and space bar. Konga Island features four areas:
*'''Beach''': The starting area, where each of the levels of the Donkey Konga training session are played.
*'''Waterfall''': Unlocked after completing level 1. It features an "About Donkey Konga" section, as well as a [[minigame]] where Donkey Kong must throw [[coconut]]s at barrels to release 6 music notes. Collecting them reveals the opening theme from ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''.
*'''Jungle''': Unlocked after completing level 2. It allows the player to view 20 screenshots of ''Donkey Konga'', as well as play a minigame where Donkey Kong must collect 16 falling notes to create a wildlife melody.
*'''Konga Island Outdoor Cinema''': Unlocked after completing level 3. It allows the player to view a commercial for ''Donkey Konga''.
Completing the first three levels unlocks the fourth and final level, which unlocks a downloadable ''Donkey Konga'' wallpaper and screensaver upon completion.

If you can round up four buddies and four bongo controllers, you're set for the evening. All that's missing in a room with this game (and four bongos) is booze and a bowl of Tostitos. A somewhat limited song selection is the only thing keeping the multiplayer aspect from being the greatest thing EVAR, so to speak. The graphics, while bland and lacking several layers of polish, get the job done without causing too much of an eye-sore. The mini-games offer a little fun, but your best still sits in Kongo's primary game modes.''
