Donkey Konga is a rhythm game for the Nintendo Gamecube released in 2003. The game is played with the special DK Bongos controller, though it can also be played with the regular GameCube controller.

The game has 29 tracks of varied genres such as rock, pop, children's songs and Nintendo songs. When a level starts, barrels with colored rings called "notes" roll across the screen. Near the end of the row there's a "target ring". The player must hit the note right as it rolls in front of the target. There are 4 types of notes: yellow for left drum, red for right drum, pink for both drums and the clap note.

Each world region has a different list of songs.
