It's now time to face Mizrabel and save Minnie!
Level 5: The Castle
The throwing objects here are candles...so pick up the candles when you see them.
The first section contains knights that throw maces like boomerangs as well as statues that will attack you when you least expect it. When you see the green statues in the background, just keep moving so they won't hit you.
The green blocks that crush you can also be dealt with by just keeping right on going. Some will drop, but some will not.
If you go to the right before the first set of green blocks and use the enemies to get on top of the wall, you'll find four candles and two Stars.
The green statue after the first set of green blocks has some rather odd timing, as he will swing at you before you get near him.
For the second set of green blocks, let the first block fall, go under it and stand under the second, wait for the third to go up before going under it standing under the fourth, let the fifth fall, then you're out.
For the third set of green blocks, trigger the first block, then run to the third block and stand under it to trigger the fourth. You'll be able to get out from here.
On the first fall-away platform, jump up and butt stomp to get rid of any projectiles.
You'll see a rolling ball. Go up and take out the knights with your candles, then go down the slope. Jump when you reach the bottom so you don't fall into the pool of purple acid and die. Duck into the gaps to avoid the rolling iron ball.
After making your way up, you'll see bubbles going in and out of the purple pools. Wait for them to go down before jumping over them. When you jump on the second fall-away block, stay on the left edge and jump when you're about to reach the bottom so you don't fall into the purple stuff again.
Be careful with the platforms above the purple pools, as they will drop down shortly after you stand on them. The skull bridge just moves up and down and will send you into the flight paths of the bats, but that's about it...and that's just the first section! You'll find the Indigo Gem at the exit.
The second section has you swimming against the current. Take the top route, then take the bottom.
The third section is a clock tower. You'll be taking platforms to the top and trying not to fall to the bottom (and not get hit by bats). The stationary gears will fall when you stand on them, while the spinning ones will not.
You'll also see crushers. Their crushing patterns will start as soon as they are on the screen, so you can somewhat mess with the crushers' timing.
The pendulum platform can be iffy. You want to land on the center, or you'll risk falling off the edge and going down.
The boss here is a rather large man who jumps around. He'll try to whack you with a sword and try to block you from stomping on him with his free arm. Get him to move close to you, and when he bares his teeth, that's your cue to butt bounce on his head. You'll want to land dead center on his head when you butt stomp him, or else you're going to take damage. You'll want to keep some distance on the off chance that he performs the jumping attack instead of the sword attack. If you go for the attack before he bares his teeth, he will raise his arm up to protect himself and you'll be knocked back a bit upon hitting the butt bounce.
Beating this guy gives you the Violet Gem...but now you have to face Mizrabel!
Once you make a bridge to the tower with the Rainbow Gems, you'll meet Mizrabel herself! She changes into another form that looks like the Wicked Queen from Snow White. To beat her, dodge the ghosts she shoots out and butt stomp her on the head. Thankfully, you can butt bounce on the ghosts repeatedly and move accordingly to keep from taking hits on the way down. If Mizrabel is close to you, jump butt stomp on the ghost shield and then go in for the kill. When you beat Mizrabel, she'll inexplicably change back to her original form. Mizrabel will have a change of heart and help you escape the castle when it's about to crumble. Of course, when you get out, it doesn't and there's nothing but fireworks.
The Castle of Illusion is gone, Mizrabel has a change of heart and Minnie and Mickey are reunited! You've won!
