Only Donkey (yup, King of the Kong would never do this) doesn't take her all the way to the top, he teases you with her, by taking her just a few stories up. Sort of like King Kong, the ape grabs a blonde it likes and climbs a building with her. You're this Mario look-alike (or is it really Mario) and you need to get to your sweetheart that has been kidnapped by a big bad ape called Kong, Donkey Kong (I mean seriously - Donkey). I never understood why it couldn't have been King Kong, but hey, that's the world of computer games for you. Be sure to slow the game down with slowdown programs, though. Still, it remains one of Atari's best PC ports that remain highly playable to this day. This port by Atari does justice to the original arcade sensation, only minus the bright colors due to hardware limitations of PCs in 1983. Straightforward, but a lot of fun and quite addictive.
You do this by jumping over barrels and other obstacles that Kong throw at you, and climbing up ladders to the top. In case you have never heard of the game until this moment (and if that's true, you most likely never played games until recently), here's the deal: you control a plump construction worker called Jumpman (who would later morph into a plumber named Mario in Nintendo's most successful series) who must rescue his girlfriend Pauline from the clutches of Donkey Kong, a giant gorilla modeled after the movie. Donkey Kong is a great PC port of Nintendo's classic arcade game that needs no introduction, since it has been ported to just about every console and computer system you can imagine.
