Stop-Motion Game Revivals

Pixels and Bricks Put Together Live Donkey Kong Session

Every gamer remembers saving the terrified Princess Peach from the evil Donkey Kong. It was hard, fun and exciting the whole journey.

Pixels and Bricks have carefully and skillfully created a stop-motion reenactment of a standard Donkey Kong level. Mario comes to the rescue, gets ‘killed’ once, but comes back with his trusty hammer to destroy Donkey Kong and save the Princess.

That Mario is a real stud and that Donkey Kong is a big meanie (and Princess is a fox…you know, if she were real)!
