Story[edit]
The volcano on Donkey Kong Island suddenly erupts, releasing a group of Tikis known as the Tiki Tak Tribe. The Tikis hypnotize the animals on Donkey Kong Island, forcing them to steal Donkey Kong's banana hoard. A Tiki tries to enslave Donkey Kong, but their hypnotic music has no effect on him. Donkey Kong sets off on a quest to reclaim his banana hoard from the Tikis and force them off Donkey Kong Island.
