World of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck

Sega has recaptured that Disney magic once again with World of Illusion. What more could you ask for than Mickey and Donald together in one game? Everything from the graphics and sound to the playability and control are near perfect, and it's really three games, one for each character. Give me more like this one!

Bello, bello e bello! Volete un'alternativa più classica a Sonic? Eccola qua, World Of Illusions è un signor gioco. L'unica nota è che se magari fosse stato fatto qualche anno più tardi poteva essere anche meglio, ma vabbè accontentiamoci.

World Of Illusion est un jeu qui plaira à ceux qui sont à la recherche d'un petit platformer simple et facile. Un jeu rempli de magie et agréable à 1 ou 2 joueurs.

Il lato tecnico è colorato e armonioso, sia sul piano grafico che sonoro, la giocabilità è altissima, la longevità forse non immensa considerando una difficoltà generale orientata verso il basso, elemento probabilmente voluto a priori per permettere un fruizione anche a fasce di età inferiori. Le varie versioni sono identiche tra loro, ovviamente l’artwork jap non teme rivali.

All in all, World of Illusion is a great looking and sounding game. Many will find it a bit too easy and short, but it's perfect for younger gamers looking to finally finish one. Highly recommended.

World of Illusion es un pequeño paso en falso de la excelente saga a la que pertenece puesto que, a pesar de ser un título aprovechable e incluso resultón como multijugador, no llega a las altas cotas de calidad que exhiben los otros componentes de la misma, perdiéndose entre la nutridísima oferta de plataformas de Mega Drive.

The two-player mode incorporates additional stages that emphasize the teamwork aspect. These are slow and a bit tedious at times, but generally easy and fun. The stage designs are fairly predictable, save for a few clever touches like the spider that weaves his web as you walk across it. The kinder, gentler musical score is pure Disney, but the sound effects could use some work. I can tolerate the scratchy voice samples, but that tinny "thunder" sounds awful. A password feature is included, but the use of playing cards instead of letters makes it tough to record the code on paper. This might not be the best Mickey Mouse adventure you'll ever experience, but the reasonable difficulty and cooperative play make it worthwhile for gamers looking for something relaxing.
