Killer Gorilla is a Donkey Kong clone written by Adrian Stephens and published by Micro Power for the BBC Micro in 1983.[1] It was ported to the Acorn Electron and Amstrad CPC computers in 1984.

Stephens wrote Killer Gorilla at the age of 17 after buying a magazine with screenshots of Donkey Kong.[2] He was paid 400 pounds for the game.[3] Stephens wrote two other games for Micro Power: Escape From Moonbase Alpha and Mr EE, a clone of Universal's Mr. Do!.[1]
