Gameplay
editTo save his friends, Mickey has to collect puzzle pieces that completes images of his friends, including Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and even obscure characters like Grandma Duck from the comic book series. To do this, Mickey has to wave his wand over crystals which conceal pieces of the image, items, and occasional enemies. Each level has ten small stages, each with at least one image to complete. Each tenth stage has an end boss to defeat. The image to complete in the tenth stage of each level reveals the character being held captive by the end boss of that level.[3]
Plot
editMickey and his friends get lost in a forest and discover a haunted castle that belongs to the evil witch Yashja. The castle is full of tricks, traps, and magic wands to create ice and fire. Suddenly, a gaping hole opens up under Mickey's friends and they all fall in. Now Mickey has to save his friends, who are being held captive by the witch. The game ends with Mickey running to the center of a long room and calls out for Minnie, who eventually answers. They meet and embrace each other and reunite with their friends. Goofy takes a picture to celebrate their victory.[3]
