[[Donkey Kong]] lies suspended from a [[peg]], holding a rock which he has to hurl as far as possible. In order to throw the rock, the player has to click on Donkey Kong to make him swing around the peg and gain momentum, then click on him again to release the rock. The distance covered by the rock is measured in {{wp|Foot (unit)|feet}}. At the bottom of the stage, there are [[Tire (object)|tires]] placed regularly which help bounce the rock further. Tires located every 50 ft are joined with markers that display the distance up to that point (0, 50, 100, 150 ft etc.) | [[Donkey Kong]] lies suspended from a [[peg]], holding a rock which he has to hurl as far as possible.

Once the rock falls on the ground, [[Cranky Kong]] appears on the screen to announce the results, commenting on the performance as either "weak" (if the rock is thrown at less than 25 ft) or "way to hurl". At the same time, the player can choose to hurl again or visit the official website of ''DK: King of Swing''. The game does not impose a target distance, but records the "best hurl" achieved by the player, as well as the distance traversed in the last played session. | Once the rock falls on the ground, [[Cranky Kong]] appears on the screen to announce the results, commenting on the performance as either "weak" (if the rock is thrown at less than 25 ft) or "way to hurl".
