@nosweargamer has a quick and simple overview of Nintendo's Donkey Kong Jr. for the NES. It's a great place to start if you're new to the game!
 
 

Please remember to TYPE OUT YOUR HIGH SCORE when posting to High Score Squad! We want to get your score right, and prevent mistakes. Scores can be blurry in photos, tricky on the eyes, or hidden deep within play-through videos. Claiming your score 100% prevents confusion.
 
 

There's a potential Donkey Kong kill screen coming up if anybody wants to watch

That happens to me all the time!  Or the phone starts beeping and buzzing.  MOTHER<BLEEP>!!!!!

I was in the zone and then the wife came in the room and it was all over. Haha

Dang!  So close.

Yes, because the crook will run back and magically appear on the 2nd floor (despite the escalator only going up). You can catch the crook on the 3rd floor heading right if you time it well. Otherwise, you're stuck and will likely run out of time.

I've tried to do better. Just can't get the timing of the elevator right to get a higher score. I'm off work the last 2 days of this one. Gonna keep trying. 🙂

What is TG?  Can you share that post, I am interested to learn any secrets!

Remember my post above? Yeah, those were the days, huh? So...
293,600. I played on Stella 6.7 for Mac OS. I did record this run but I need to shrink the file size before uploading to YouTube.

Slightly better. 13,000.
 

Improved my score 😊 16,700

Ha!!!  Thank you Bluetooth and XBOX. 12,150
 
 

It's tough game for me because of the focus needed.  Once you get to the higher levels, the objects really fly across the screen.  You have a split second to figure out what the obstacle is and then react.  I haven't figured out the secret to the dual bouncing balls yet. 

I'm at least on the board.  I don't care for the touchscreen controls. I could not get my character to go right most of the time.  6,200.
