I have great memories of playing games based on Disney characters and universes. From Castle of Illusion to Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion, these platform games in a horizontal side-scrolling format were a big part of my childhood. Recently, a new game from Dlala Studios has brought back that retro style with a cooperative mode for up to four players, featuring Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck, and Goofy on a quest to recover lost knowledge.
This new game combines elements of classic 8 and 16 bit games with modern graphics and gameplay inspired by the Rayman Legends series. Players must navigate through different Biomes on Monoth Island, solving puzzles and evading enemies to progress. While the game may not be the most challenging, the smooth controls and charming visuals make it a fun experience for fans of Disney.
Exploring the diverse Biomes of Monoth Island is a highlight of the game, with each area offering unique themes and challenges. However, the gameplay can feel a bit repetitive at times, especially when playing solo. The absence of weapons adds a different twist to the gameplay, focusing more on evasion and exploration.
Overall, this game is family-friendly and captures the essence of classic Disney animations. While it may not offer the same level of challenge as other platform games, it’s a fun and enjoyable experience for fans of Mickey and friends.
