MAGICAL QUEST ST. MICKEY MOUSE (SNES) .......... PÁG
SUPER NINTENDO SUPER NINTENDO Por Luciano Coelho The age of 8 and 16 bits can be considered the golden age of Disney franchises on consoles. We had wonderful and unforgettable games, where we can mention Castle Of Illusion, Aladdin, Quackshot, among others. And among these games a great trilogy appeared on the SNES called Magical Quest. In the first game, Pluto had been kidnapped and was captured by Pete in the middle of a game with his friends Donald Duck and Goofy. Mickey has set out to the rescue and will be able to wear three different outfits: a Magician, a Firefighter and a Climber. Some clothes can be upgraded in the shops that will be found throughout the game. The game was released for the SNES in 1992 and was later re-released for the Game Boy Advance in 2002. The game is very fun and addictive. The only bad thing is that it's short. The game was remade for the Game Boy Advance in 2002 as Magical Quest Starring Mickey & Minnie. It was developed by Capcom and published by Nintendo. In this version, Minnie was added as a playable character, but her gameplay is the same as Mickey. Graphically, the game is as its name says: magic. The game is very colorful, alive and with many details that impress us. The animation is very fluid. And Magical Quest masterfully uses Mode 7 graphics to create multiple levels and captivating enemies. The music is very good and helps to set the perfect mood for the game. And speaking of Bosses, Mode 7 gives them an amazing life. The first time I played as a kid, they really impressed me and some of them even intimidated me. They were huge on screen. They almost covered the entire screen and rotated in a way that was quite surprising. Some fights became quite memorable for me. And what was hard at the time is now fun.

THE MAGICAL QUEST MICKEY MOUSE
Plataforma: SNES
Desenvolvedora: Capcom
Lançamento: 1992
Right at the beginning of the game, Mickey meets a friendly sorcerer who gives him advice and who later on will give him the best things in the game: The clothes
The Magician outfit lets Mickey be able to fire blasts of magic. And when charged, the explosion is bigger. The second suit is the firefighter suit. Mickey is able to shoot water, so he can attack all enemies, put out fires, push blocks and form icicles. And the last costume is that of the climber, given by Goofy, which gives him the ability to use a grappling hook, reach high places, and cling to certain objects. He can then hoist or swing on top of them. In addition, your grappling hook can be used to grab items and to stun and weaken enemies.
Conclusion: Magical Quest is one of the best of Disney's late golden age in games and a great representative.
