It's been so long since I touched the croissant-shaped Sega controller, so I wasn't certain how the buttons would function on the SNES controller. There are two main types of action: jumping and throwing items (should you have them at your disposal). The controls for this game are nice, yet simple. Anyway, what are you waiting for? Minnie awaits your rescue! Inside the castle there are doors that lead to different realms so basically the exterior part of the castle is like a hub world, only it's entirely linear in structure and scope. It's there that an inhabitant warns you that Mizrabel plans to steal Minnie's beauty to make the witch look beautiful and Minnie look evil like her, and that the only way to stop the evil witch is to recoup the seven rainbow gems, most of which are guarded by the Masters of Illusion. Mickey, wanting to save Minnie, traced them all the way to the titular Castle of Illusion. One day she gets kidnapped out of envy by the witch Mizrabel, who looks like she came out of Disney's 1937 animated classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarves (intentional homage?). Everyone in there liked and admired Minnie for her popularity and beauty. In Vera City, all the inhabitants and visitors are happy and joyful, especially the always charming Mickey Mouse and his equally charming girlfriend Minnie Mouse. When the adaptor arrived, though, I was finally able to play the game, and having got a chance to play Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse, I knew I was in for something special. However, it didn't arrive until the 27th, and seeing as the game arrived long before that, I was really eager to play the game so badly. While I was initially skeptical about the adaptor, I was amazed by its capabilities when I finally got it (it's not flawless, but it works all the same). But wait, I don't own Sega's 16-bit console, so how was I ever to play it? Well, at the same time I ordered a RetroGen, an adaptor that lets you play Genesis and MegaDrive games on the SNES and Retro Duo consoles. Recently I've decided to order it from eBay and experience it this past month. I've also always heard positive, good word of mouth for this game, and since then I've always been interested and curious about it.
#Castle of illusion starring mickey mouse sega master system manual
I remember one time when I visited some of my cousins in America, they had a Genesis console with some games for it, and I remember there was an ad for it in the back of the instruction manual for the first Sonic the Hedgehog. There was this one Mickey Mouse game, though, that has attracted my curiosity for so many years, and that game was none other than Sega's Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse. All good, very fun games in their own right, and I'm glad that I got to play them all! =) One of the first games I decided to import was the obscure, Japan-exclusive Mickey no Tokyo Disneyland Daibōken.
And during the summer, I purchased a Retro Duo system, which lets me play not only NES and SNES games, but also Super Famicom games, I decided to start importing SFC games from Japan (one of the best things to happen to me as a gamer). Then on my birthday (April 5th), one of the games I was given and was going to play was its predecessor, The Magical Quest starring Mickey Mouse, also on the SNES. It wasn't until some time early this year (2012) that I would finally get to experience another retro 2D Mickey Mouse platformer, Capcom's The Great Circus Mystery starring Mickey & Minnie for the SNES console. One of my childhood favorites, and one of my current favorites today, though I still wish the Sony version reached the American shores. After all these years, I think that game has aged well it's got good aesthetic qualities, good play control, memorable areas, decent amount of challenge, and it was always a fun, enjoyable experience for me. Year: 1990 | Developed by: Sega (AM7) | Published by: Segaįor the longest time the only 2D platformer I ever played that starred Mickey Mouse since I was very little was Mickey's Wild Adventure for the first PlayStation console (the PAL-exclusive, enhanced port of the MegaDrive/Genesis game Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse) I lived in Europe back then, and I always visit my relatives each year.
