Game Description :
Diddy Kong Racing is a video game that was created and released by Rare for Nintendo 64 systems. The core idea of the gam,e as the name suggests, ts is the captivating car races in Timber Island. When Donkey Kong has a sidekick, Diddy Kong, many people might be familiar with him, having appeared in the Donkey Kong series on numerous occasions. The game falls within the Kart Racing genre, commonly being referred to when discussing games like the Mario Kart series. The story starts with the arrival of a wizard pig known as Wizpig after Diddy Kong and his friends decided to have a race tournament. He intended to get all the songs on Timber Island, so somehow, he transformed the four heroes who are the guards of the island into his servants.
To destroy Wizpig and bring peace to the entire island, Diddy Kong needs to defeat Wizpig in the races. Not just in cars, but in hovercrafts and aeroplanes as well. But the player must be very careful; one of the island’s most veteran racers, Dumstick the Rooster, was turned into a frog when it failed under Wizpig’s hands. The player will select a character from the ten available at the outset of the game. Among them, eight characters can be unlocked at the very first stage, and two have to be unlocked in the process of unlocking. Players will have the exact same comfort at all racetracks. In the meantime, water or air racing will be obliged to pass through two channels, a hovercraft nd an aeroplane, respectively. During the race, balloons and bananas will be seen dotted about.
When it comes to the number of balloons, each balloon will represent various abilities: reds to attack, blues to accelerate, yellows to defend, greens to slow down, and rainbows will reduce the distance between you and the nearest racer. When several balls of the same colour are picked up, each of the corresponding abilities will be still further enhanced. As for bananas, when collecting ten fruits, the speed of the player will also be somewhat increased. In case the player is attacked, two bananas will be deducted from each. If successful in defeating Wizpig in Future Fun Land, players will be transferred to a new mode called Adventure 2. Moreover, it has three other game modes, namely a deathmatch, a chess collection mode and an egg-collecting mode.
