It is the simplest of the Mickey trilogy in Master System, but it is still a must-have platform of the system. And it's a shame that the levels are not a bit bigger and more complex like their predecessors because here are lots of good ideas that go unused: The level with north-south magnets, the crystal world with the red and green rays of light , the levers in the lake phase to change platforms, etc. I suppose that since the game was originally for the Game Gear laptop, it had no save or passwords and the batteries of this machine lasted very little, the intention was to make a game that could be completed quickly once the levels were learned. A bit sad if we compare it with the lot of scenarios and mechanics of the Land of Illusion (I still hallucinate with the level of the ghosts in which you have to carry a candle by pressing switches to make the scroll scroll).

Here's a cool Easter egg that is also the path to the best ending. Collect all the gems in the Falls of Fortune to get a rainbow to appear in the room right after you clear the level. The rainbow will also appear on the World Map. Now you can finish the game to get the best ending, which just adds a rainbow to one of the scenes in the ending.

I only learned of this game just yesterday when a relative told me that he'd seen a video talking about a Mickey Mouse game similar to Castle, World and Land of Illusion called Legend of Ilusion. When he said that I thought he was pulling my leg, but said it was a real game made by Sega that was released for the Master System. I was well into the Mickey adventure games for the Sega, but I do not remember ever hearing about Legend of Illusion and never saw it in the games shops. Must've been quite a rare game. I wonder why it wasn't popular?. I suspect it wasn't released in the UK which is why i was oblivious to it.

Pete is not that evil here. He may be lazy, but he was actually kinda selfless, giving his crown to Mickey if he does find the cure
@Angel-DJ-Gaming2 ай бұрын
He was never aware that if Mickey did find the cure, he would named the new king. The only reason he even gave the crown to Mickey is to force him to find the cure and afterwards get his crown back.
