5.0 out of 5 stars DK 64 Official Strategy Guide Review, January 26, 2000
This review is from: Donkey Kong 64 Official Strategy Guide (VIDEO GAME BOOKS) (Paperback)
This book is GREAT. It is well organized and the maps are easy to read and very helpful. The maps show where every single banana, banana bunch coin, Banana Fairy, and Battle Arena is. It gives detailed desriptions for each golden banana and blueprint. It also covers the Mystery items and strategies for Kong Battles. One of the best things about this is that it is organized into easy-to-read sections: A 12 page section for each level (except the last), each divided into a title page, which displays the name of the level, the amount of Golden Bananas needed to enter, any Kongs that are rescued in that level, and the way to get to the lobby. The next 10 pages are 2-page sections for each Kong that explain where to find each Golden Banana, banana, and coin for each Kong. The last page shows a complete map of the whole level with locations of the banana fairies and the battle arena.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use--covers all the bases, January 14, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Donkey Kong 64 Official Strategy Guide (VIDEO GAME BOOKS) (Paperback)
It took Amazon about a week to finally ship this, but it was worth the wait. The book is divided into chapters for each level. Each chapter usually starts with one kong and leads you to all five bananas for that kong, and then starts with the next kong, etc. There is also a good overview in some chapters that describes special circumstances for the level--for example, some levels require two characters to collaborate for a banana. Each chapter also has a helpful "banana checklist" that you can use to keep track of which bananas you have earned. I also like the helpful hints on each page.

The book also contains information on special moves for each kong, so if you're not sure how to use the "Primate Punch" you can look it up easily.

My only complaints is that the level maps are hard to read (you need to use the legend).

5.0 out of 5 stars Really good book for an average game, August 11, 2000

This review is from: Donkey Kong 64 Official Strategy Guide (VIDEO GAME BOOKS) (Paperback)
BradyGames seem to make the best strategy guides out for all games in general. I have used the Xenogears, Final Fantasy VII and VIII guides by Brady and now I have used the DK64 and all are worth the purchase, easily understood, the maps are done well, and the guides are competently organized
