Without combat, the focus is on platforming challenges - of which there are some tricky looking sections - plus the simple joy of movement and exploration. Other biomes include a botanical area inside a giant peacock, and an area inspired by Rube Goldberg machines. The level sees Mickey jumping past alien starfish-like enemies, avoiding spiky coral, and swimming through pockets of water in shades of electric violet.

Of course, back in the 90s, mascot platformers were all the rage.
