Reception
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/25/KillerKongScr1.gif/200px-KillerKongScr1.gif)
Crash magazine called Killer Kong "a very fine version with excellent graphics and plenty of screen variation."[2]
In 2011, retrogaming magazine ZX Spectrum Gamer wrote, "Killer Kong might actually be pretty good if it didn't play like a magazine type-in. The movement is really jerky–character square movement instead of pixel precision, and the barrels tend to flicker enough to make things really tricky".[3]
