Things get a bit harder and more harried as the third of five levels opens with soul-charging chords and an eye-opening fiery sky. The first level forest and second level toy world sound all the appropriate notes, but seem like a warm up. Many of the charming orchestrations feel as if they have been lifted directly from a classic Mickey Mouse cartoon. To be fair, though the game with less bits has more bite, it was released after the Genesis beauty. It’s not often that this circumstance arises, but despite Mickey looking and sounding quite a bit more polished here on the Genesis in comparison to his scaled down Master System presentation, all the more refined ingredients somehow add up to a slightly less compelling adventure. As splendid as the game is, I like the 8-bit version better.
Welcome to the wondrous Castle of Illusion for the Sega Genesis. You must find the gems and build the rainbow bridge to reach Mizrabel and Minnie, and then, take care of business. Guilt overcomes your reluctance, so set off after them expeditiously because that’s what your buddy Master Higgins would have done. Mizrabel swoops down on her broom and mousenaps Minnie from under your nose. You see, as you and Minnie pranced about in the meadows of tranquil Vera City, the evil witch Mizrabel was plotting an evil scheme to attain Minnie-esque beauty for herself. What we’ve got here is a bridge too far, but it’s nothing that seven special gems can’t fix. "What we’ve got here is a bridge too far, but it’s nothing that seven special gems can’t fix.
