    Castle of Illusion feat Mickey Mouse HD. The new adaptation of Castle of Illusion is an extremely beautiful platformer, and nice to play, too, but Sega clearly tries to take advantage of Capcom's neo-DuckTales. Mickey Mouse isn't as memorable a main character as Scrooge McDuck, and this game is ultimately just reaching for the fruits of the neo-retro craze. [Oct 2013]

    SEGA succeeds in reviving one of the great classic platformers: Castle of Illusion features smooth controls, affectionate graphics and intriguing boss designs. Mickey’s new adventures are way too short, though, and lack ambitious level composition. The original was a challenge and a hard nut to crack, the reworks is a mere casual game.

    It's charming and well-polished, but players craving challenge might be disappointed. On the other hand, people wanting to relax with something that doesn't require a huge investment of time or effort should consider joining Mickey on his newest mousecapade.

    Castle of Illusion is badly made, and not a very good game in and of itself. This remake has no right to exist whatsoever and is better off forgotten.

    The first impression is top: very sweet art design and a classic fairy tale story. I didnt see something like that since a long time. The gameplay is not impressive in the beginning: jump around and hope not to fall. But from time to time there are great ideas and distract from the simple gameplay. In addition there is good music and you have fun. I dont like to waste my time for such simple gameplay, so I was glad, that I can continue to play although I lost all my lives. I wanted to see all the nice ideas and the end and yes it is worth to play this game: It is typical Disney, very lovely, the world would be more sad without their stories.    … Expand

    It is a very short and easy game but level variety and the visuals create the well known Disney magic. If you really need a challenge youIt is a very short and easy game but level variety and the visuals create the well known Disney magic. If you really need a challenge you might want to check other games. This is a game where you sit back on your chair and relax by playing it.

    Pros: beautiful levels, nice music and voice acting, Disney magic, makes you feel like you play an old school platform game

    Cons: Short, Very easy, Price(13 euro for 2 hours game), No service, patches or updates from the developers (No game icons on steam and there are also performance issues 30 fps)    … Expand
