Good Points:
A game set in Disneyland? Sounds like fun to me! That is, until you actually play it. You play the part of “Unnamed Kid in a Cowboy Hat.” Apparently, Goofy lost the 6 keys to the Magic Kingdom door, and they can't start the parade until you find them all. In order to find the keys, you have to go to 5 of the attractions throughout the park, and win their mini-games. The last key is won by answering some Disney Trivia. Well, whoopty-do!


Bad Points:
As sad as it is, I'm going to go ahead and list the ranking under “Bad Points.”

Graphics: There's some shots of Mickey, Goofy, and Donald, but that's about it.

Sound Effects/Music: No neat sounds, no good music...not even “It's a Small World” to drive you insane! Did they not get a good license for the game or something?

Originality: We've all done racing games before, as well as stupid space shooters and platform hoppers. And the trivia questions aren't much of a redeeming factor.

Play Control: Not as tight as Mega Man games, and not with a certain amount of looseness as the Mario games (he slid when he was stopping, remember?). It's in between, meaning that you don't go where you want when you want.

Enjoyment: Let's face it, if you're not a freakin' huge fan of Disney, you're not going to like this that much.

Challenge: Some of the games (The Matterhorn, for example) are based solely on luck to get through. Others are simple memorization/reflex games. Come ON! Try some variety for once!

Ending: If there ever was a lame ending, then this is it. Then again, look at the game's plot!

Overall, this is a decent game if you're in the mood for banging your head against a wall and feeling sorry for Walt Disney. May he never be unfrozen and find out about this game.
