Knowing what their weaknesses are works greatly to your advantage as you work your way through the game. You come in contact with lots of different enemies and bosses in Castle of Illusion. If you grew up with both the Castle of Illusion and Land of Illusion games, then this one was never meant for you. Here are our top 10 tips, tricks, and cheats to clearing stages and defeating Mizrabel 1. It's like a poor adaptation of "The Prince and the Pauper" with crazy mixed up bits and pieces chalked in. This game sadly suffers many of the defects of Fantasia and does not meet the golden highlights of Land of Illusion. Fighting a dragon, a witch or the Horned King as a final boss is intriguing, but it's an anticlimax that you're fighting Pete instead after that battle with the Dark Sorcerer. The platforming is badly broken up by a tedious runner stage and a straightforward flying stage. Phantom enemies are only decent opponents. You fight pretty mediocre enemies including cats, weasel guards, bubblehead snakes and other weird critters. Gone is the thrilling bouncing on enemies and you get bars of wet soap to toss. Gameplay is no better than the game's audio and graphics. Paired with these ugly graphics are the lackluster music tracks. Even the cutscenes didn't have attention to detail, so much for presentation. The level objects and tiles have no variety, they're just patchworked throughout. Graphically this game is unimaginative with little to no backgrounds, just flat colours.
This game features not just Mickey, but also Goofy, Donald and Pete, not that they do too much in the game. The ability to hold some items and use them later is a handy mechanic in the game.
If you like breezing through levels, this title won't be a problem. Where platforming elements are concerned there are a few clever puzzles in the levels to break up an otherwise combat heavy game.
