Take it to the fridge with Cranky in ...
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkctf)
After the success of Donkey Kong Country Returns (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkcr), Retro studios was tasked with creating a new Donkey Kong platformer. In 2014, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkctf) hit the Wii U. Once again, terrible things are afoot on Donkey Kong Island -- in this case, the Snowmads, who have covered everything with a layer of snow and ice. Donkey Kong must save the day once again, by generally beating everything back into shape.
Donkey & Diddy Kong are the only heroes this time -- Dixie Kong and Cranky Kong are playable characters as well. Cranky even gets to hop around on his cane, as if it were a pogostick!
Whereas Donkey Kong Country Returns (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkcr) used updated arrangements and covers of music from the original Donkey Kong Country (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkcountry), Tropical Freeze features all-new music by series composer David Wise.
In 2018, the game was ported to the Switch (https://themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkctf-switch), with Funky Kong added as a playable character.
