Donkey Kong 3 is the third in the Donkey Kong Arcade series. It was later re-released as a minigame in Game & Watch Gallery 4. Donkey Kong 3 never became as popular as the earler Donkey Kong titles, possibly due to the fact that it is more of a shooting game than the original platformers. Another major differences between DK3 and the earleir games is that the main character is not Mario, but Stanley the Bugman in his only in-game appearace (though he did appear as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee).
Story
Donkey Kong breaks into Stanley the Bugman's greenhouse and goes to hang in the rafters where he stirs up nests of Buzzbees and Beespies, which will destroy Stanley's flowers in revenge. Armed with a can of fly spray, Stanley must destroy the bees and chase Donkey Kong away before he wrecks the whole greenhouse.
Gameplay
The game is very simplistic, requiring the player to gather points as the object rather than have any specific long-term goal in mind. There are three rounds, and once the player completes all three, he returns to the first. Throughout the levels are scattered various enemies: Buzzbees, beespies, queen bees which shatter into deadly pieces when destroyed, and creepy caterpillars. The bees attempt to steal Stanley's flowers, and the bees must be destroyed before reaching the plants. Donkey Kong himself hangs from two vines at the top of the screen. Spraying him drives him upwards and eventually off the screen to win the level.
