This review was conducted using the Xbox 360 version of the game. The controls do need some work, but while Castle of Illusion is high on mechanic problems, it's even higher on whimsy. Even if you hold no affinity for the original title, this version will likely make you nostalgic for something.Д¬astle of Illusion is a solid remake all-around, offering a unique vision of the core design that will give fans something fresh to delve into while modernizing the experience for newcomers. As Mickey, players must venture through the evil. He has the ability to make music that's simultaneously playful and grandiose, and his work here is magnificent. Starring Disney mascot Mickey Mouse, the game is a remake of the 1990 Sega Genesis platformer of the same name. Even better, Sega employed Grant Kirkhope, who wrote the music for games like Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong 64, to remaster Castle of Illusion's soundtrack. The completely redesigned hub world, which has Mickey exploring a witch's castle and using amassed collectibles to unlock doors, feels like something out of a Nintendo 64 game. The game also succeeds in feeling like a faithful homage not just to the Genesis original, but to old-school platformers as a whole. On the other hand, it certainly never runs out of steam along the way. On one hand, Castle of Illusion won't last you very long. That the game can be completed in less than three hours is both a curse and a blessing. The game also leaps from one eye-catching set piece to the next-outrunning a giant apple here, swimming through an ocean of tea there-so quickly that it's never dull. When the evil witch Mizrabel kidnaps Minnie, itвЂ™s up to Mickey to brave the dangers of the Castle of Illusions to rescue Minnie.

Mickey Mouse returns to star in Castle of Illusion, a fantastical reimagining of the Sega Genesis classic.

But the game finds its rhythm in a big way during the game's last few levels, when you must outmaneuver enormous books and mace-wielding suits of armor.
