Donkey Kong Pace picks up the structure of Nintendo's original Donkey Kong -Mario climbing structures and dodging barrels to rescue the heroine- with adjustments to the speed and pace of play compared to the version everyone knows. It's one of the many unofficial variants that circulated over one of arcade's most influential designs. Its value lies in the curiosity of comparing how small pace changes alter the feel of a game whose original formula was already, in itself, practically flawless.
