2D platforming fun with Michael Mouse across six of his feature cartoons.

It's Mickey Mania!

Right, Disney. Mickey Mouse. Why were games around your mascot so frustratingly difficult in the 90s? This isn't just a #CastleOfIllusion thing. We had Magical Quest, #MickeyMania , I mean World of Illusion wasn't too difficult from memory... But still! That's a lot of Retro Gaming trauma you dumped on us in that generation!

Castle of Illusion is meaner than it has any right to be. Behind that cute facade is a game that is just a little cruel. From enemy placements and patterns to slightly squiffy hit boxes. Also, you need to hold down the D-pad to prepare Mickey's butt to jump on and defeat enemies. That's a weird nuance and very much a choice that is seldom implemented into a 2D platformer.

Is the game good? It's pretty decent, and offers a challenge, but I have beaten it now and I don't see myself rushing back do that all over again!
