My favorite stage is the clock tower, and the normal stages are much larger and require some exploration to find the boss in each one. There’s a practice mode with simplified versions of the first three stages for beginners to get started with. The bosses are fairly unique and require different strategies to defeat each one, and a few had me guessing at how to defeat them. A lot of effort was put into the game by Sega to make it as polished as possible. He also has to collect keys to open doors and collect the standard life and energy refills. The game is very similar to Duck Tales for NES in that Mickey can jump and slam enemies with his butt or pick up boxes and stones and toss them at other enemies. Castle of Illusion was a late arrival and one of the last few games released in the states so it really shows what the SMS is capable of in terms of graphics and game play quality.Ĭastle of Illusion is composed of six stages in a castle where Minnie has been kidnapped by the witch Mizrabel and Mickey sets out to save her, in yet another generic rescue-the-princess story. Those who stuck it out through the life of the Master System saw a new life for the under-appreciated console. Capcom was releasing a number of high quality Disney games on the NES, so Sega saw fit to grab some of Capcom’s thunder by using the Mickey Mouse license and release a game geared for the kiddies incorporating many of the elements that made so many of the Disney games on the NES a success. So many only remember it as an obscure console with a bunch of ugly-looking and bad-playing old games from the mid ’80s. Sega never got a good foothold on the market with its 8-bit console.
