Donkey Kong 3 is an arcade game in the Donkey Kong series later ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System. The NES version can be played in Animal Crossing and Doubutsu no Mori e+ by interacting with the Donkey Kong 3 item.

Gameplay

The first level of Donkey Kong 3, the Blue Greenhouse

In a departure from the previous two Donkey Kong arcade games, which are platformers, Donkey Kong 3 is a shooter. The player controls a bug exterminator named Stanley, who must drive Donkey Kong out of his greenhouse by spraying him with insect repellant to push him up until he reaches the top of the screen. Additionally, the player must protect Stanley's plants from various insects that fly toward them. Once Donkey Kong is pushed to the top of the screen, the game moves onto the next level; on the third level, Donkey Kong is pushed into a beehive and is defeated.

In Animal Crossing

The Donkey Kong 3 item

In Animal Crossing and Doubutsu no Mori e+, the Donkey Kong 3 furniture item can be obtained from Tom Nook by entering a secret code that could be obtained from the official Animal Crossing website.
