![]() Of course, Donald is stuck drawing the short end of the stick (he gets a couple of feathers to help him float, despite already being a duck) as a fun excuse for Donald’s trademark temper to flare up. Meanwhile, Goofy’s moves are appropriately comical (and strangely all food-based), like squeezing a giant bottle of mustard to float or inexplicably using a chili pepper for a double jump. Though each character plays identically, they all have unique animations for their actions to match their personalities: Mickie and Minnie’s moves will be presented as more practical (though still cartoonish), with things like jetpacks and grappling hooks allowing them to hover and grab onto walls, respectively. It’s a cute and simple plot, made all the more charming through the game’s vibrant animation and cutscenes, which seem influenced by the Mickey Mouse shorts of the 2010s without feeling derivative of them. And so begins the Disney cast’s quest to retrieve the magic tombs to save Monoth. ![]() Mickey, Minnie and Goofy quickly agree to help the Hokuns, though Donald needs some convincing with the promise of treasure. ![]() Toku has heard of the group’s many adventures, and requests the groups help to retrieve three magic tombs that hold the power to protect Monoth, as the tombs have been stolen, and the Hokuns are far too small to go on the adventure themselves. When they arrive, they discover that the invitations were actually sent by the diminutive Toku, the chief of a hamster-like people called the Hokuns. The story begins when Mickey, Minnie, Donald and George Geef – better known as Goofy – are sent invitations from one another to meet up for a picnic in a land called Monoth. While fans of the genre may find Disney Illsion Island to be lacking in depth, it should serve as a great entryway for younger audiences to get into the genre. Disney Illusion Island marks the return of the “Illusion” series of Disney games (made famous with Mickey’s Castle of Illusion on the Sega Genesis), though this newest installment separates itself from its predecessors taking the series into the Metroidvania genre.
