Play
In the new version, the game begins on Skull Island, with the point of view being from the movie's main character, Jack. At the beginning, stay in place and try to get a visual of what's around you. The jungle is dense and thick; learn it before moving.
Health, maintained in an old video game style, is very easy to follow in King Kong. Attacked or hurt by an enemy, there isn't a gauge of any kind, just a bright red flash. Run away to heal up. You'll be dead if you're hit too much.
You can only hold one weapon at a time. Ammo is maintained by verbal cues from your character. This character will let you know if you don't have enough ammo when re-loading. A seaplane flies around dropping weapons for you. Nevertheless, watch out, if you run out of ammo, then you're out of luck. You'll just have to fight with your hands.
Fighting in the new King Kong game is also easy. Your weapons work as they are supposed to, and when you can attack opponents, it is easy to hit them. No tricks here. You won't need a scope--just click and shoot.
Controls
How the controls are used is based on what system you are using. Because the game is available on nearly every major system, you'll have to consult the instruction manual. Most controls involve some combination of analog joystick for movement and one of the four buttons for action, such as X for attack or A for pick-up weapon. If you've ever played a game on a home console, you're already an expert at the controls in King Kong.
King Kong is essentially a straight-up, first-person shooter, where the point of view is from one character who plows through different stages and levels, shooting and fighting. Jump in, fight Kong, rescue the girl and have a good time doing it.
