action

The magician Yen Sid has created a comic world for forgotten comic characters and concepts from the Disney cosmos, the so-called Wasteland. But in the absence of the wizard, Micky unintentionally creates the so-called shadow phantom, which now threatens the wasteland together with the mad doctor ( Mad Doctor ). Mickey has to travel to this world to repair it with the help of a magic brush controlled by the Wii Remote . Compared to other Disney games, the game is much darker, with discarded rides and a run-down amusement park reminiscent of Disneyland , for example . For the first time since 1928, the comic or cartoon character Oswald the funny rabbit - a predecessor of Mickey Mouse, whose rights Disney only regained in 2006 - appears again in a Disney production.
