Donkey Kong's Crash Course
Donkey Kong's Crash Course is a minigame that appears in the game Nintendo Land for the Wii U. This game is single player and requires the player to navigate through a maze-like level in a small contraption. It's played by tilting the Wii U GamePad. A larger version of roughly half of the map is displayed on the television screen, whilst a view of the player is shown on the Wii U GamePad. The gameplay is most likely inspired by the cart levels in the Donkey Kong Country series, and the background is based on the original Donkey Kong.
Gameplay
There are four courses in total - the first is red, the second is blue, the final two are more difficult versions of the first two that have elements of the course missing or changed. The player is awarded an extra life every 2000 points. As with the rest of Nintendo Land, gameplay hints and tips are revealed by Monita as the player plays. In this game, she most notably encourages the player to keep an eye out for shortcuts. Therein lies the secret to getting high scores in this game.
