Agent Bakery plays The Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse - Part 1 of 10

A Mickey Mouse game. That doesn't suck. Need I say more?

Here's the gist of the game's plot: Mickey and Goofy are playing catch with Pluto while Donald's just standing there, and then Pluto goes missing all of a sudden. Mickey falls off a cliff while looking for him, and then the game begins.

Hey, at least there aren't any plotholes.

Here's that map from the beginning, by the way.

Fighting enemies is a little weird, but once you get used to it, it's a snap. Jump on them, then pick them up with the Y button. Press the Y button to throw them forward with a nasty little spin.

The berries take you to high places when you tear them off the tree and grab hold of them. They explode after a few seconds, but you'll be much higher by the time that happens.

The sleeping birds give you a coin when dropped and let go.

You're not really going to be able to do much until you open the door. When you enter the house, you'll meet a wizard. He tells you that Pluto has been taken by Emperor Pete, and to find him, follow his statues. He'll then distribute magical boxes throughout the land, and these will be your main weapons. These can be grabbed the same way as downed enemies.

The yellow boxes can be grabbed. The grey ones cannot. The red boxes respawn when you grab them, giving you an infinite ammo supply. Sometimes, you'll find coins inside the boxes. Pick them up, as you'll need them to purchase supplies throughout the journey in stores that are interspersed throughout the levels. The hearts replenish your health.

There's a hidden door above the house. Break the blocks to find it, then enter it to find two of those sleeping birds. As for the big box with the Mickey head in the center, grab the chain beneath it, pull down, and let go. You'll get a ton of apples worth 500 points apiece for your efforts. If you find fruit in a box, pick it all up to get a ton of points. You can find a lot of nifty stuff that you'll really need in the big boxes, including coins...so keep an eye out!

The only way you can run is to walk down a slope. If you keep jumping every few seconds while you're running, you can maintain that speed, but if you don't do that while you're on flat ground, you'll go back to normal speed in a few seconds. (This hint is really useful if you're trying to do a speedrun, tool-assisted or not.)

You'll see the miniature Pete soldiers quite a bit throughout the game. You'll have to stun them with a block before you can take them out. Jumping on them does nothing.


The bees are really easy. All you have to do is jump on them to get rid of them.
