Disney's Magical Quest 3 starring Mickey & Donald Overview
Disney's Magical Quest 3 starring Mickey & Donald is a two dimensional action game for one or two players. The adventure begins when Huey, Dewey, and Louie are pulled into Storybook Land by a magical book, prompting Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck to rescue them from the villain King Pete.
Players select either Mickey or Donald, each of whom can acquire special costumes that grant unique abilities and limitations. One early costume provides armor; Mickey wields a lance and shield, while Donald uses a barrel and hammer due to his size. Their tools differ in utility, such as directional attack options versus buoyancy in water, which becomes a cooperative advantage in two player mode.
Levels contain hidden passages leading to bonus areas, shops, and treasure caches. Shops allow for the purchase of costume enhancements, additional lives, and health refills. Bonus games involve a card selection mechanic where rewards are earned unless a specific losing card is drawn.
The core gameplay involves platform navigation, jumping on enemies, and collecting coins, continuing the series' established style. The game includes selectable difficulty settings, suggesting a fair range of challenge tailored to player preference.
