Mickey's Ultimate Challenge is a video game starring Disney's Mickey Mouse, and was published by Hi-Tech Expressions for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Game Gear in 1994. It was also brought to the Sega Master System, though this version was released exclusively in Brazil and is a port of the Game Gear version by Tec Toy. Other versions of the game were exclusive to North America.

Mickey's Ultimate Challenge is primarily aimed at younger children, being a compilation of five simple Disney-themed minigames. The game was developed by WayForward Technologies under supervision from Designer Software.

Story

Mickey is lying in bed reading a book of fairy tales. He thinks to himself how wonderful it would be to live on a far-away land in a magical castle. Mickey falls asleep and dreams that he learns of trouble in Beanswick. There is a strange rumbling over the castle and no one can explain it. Mickey (or Minnie) volunteers to investigate.

Gameplay

Mega Drive version

Mickey's Ultimate Challenge is a puzzle game where players must complete challenges to beat the game. Players must go through a series of challenges in various rooms of the castle in order to collect magic beans and items.

The player can play the game as either Mickey or Minnie, who play identically and face the same challenges. Mickey and Minnie move with Left or Right. They do a low jump with B or a high jump with C. They enter doorways with Up. There are three difficulty levels: Cake, Medium, and Challenging.

Challenges

Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Stages, Library.png

Horace's Library
Books are floating up and down in the library of the Beanswick castle, and Mickey must sort them in alphabetical order by jumping on them. Depending on the difficulty, there are various numbers of books to be sorted and different patterns for the books to float in. Only a portion of the alphabet must be sorted. Once the books have been sorted, players receive a Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Spell Book.png book of spells from Horace Horsecollar.

Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Stages, Tower.png

Donald's Wizard Tower
Mickey is shrunk to a tiny size and placed on a chess-like game board. Potion bottles are on this board, as well as block obstacles that must be maneuvered around. The potion bottles must be pushed into a magic mirror on the board in a manner resembling Soukoban. In more difficult games, there are more boards to play in increasing difficulty. Once all potions have been collected, the player returns to normal size and receives a Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Spectacles.png pair of spectacles from Donald Duck (dressed as a wizard).

Daisy's Art Gallery
A timed memory challenge. Mickey must dust off portraits hanging on the castle walls in matching pairs. It is essentially the matching card game. He must complete this task before the lights in the castle dim to darkness. Depending on the difficulty, there are more or fewer pictures. For challenges with more pictures, more time is given. He is armed with a feather duster and a sliding ladder.

Hewey, Dewey, and Louie's Drawbridge
Another memory game. Several pipes light up and make different noises in a pattern that builds every turn. Mickey must listen, remember, and repeat what he heard. He can do this by jumping on the top of the pipes and playing the notes back in the proper order. The pipes only play one melody, adding one note after every time Mickey successfully completes the previous one. The difficulty of gameplay determines the length of the melody.

Goofy's Blacksmith Shop
Goofy wants Mickey to guess what tools are in his toolbox. Mickey has seven attempts to successfully guess the tools and their order inside Goofy's toolbox. After each guess, a clue appears telling players how many and which tools they guessed in the correct order. In easier games, the hints will turn red or green to denote correctness. In more difficult games, a small quartered square of red and green pieces tells Mickey which ones are right. Players must correctly guess what is in Goofy's toolbox to earn a Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Hammer.png hammer from him.

Collecting the Magic Beans
The segue of the game. The items Mickey collected were of no importance to their previous owners but would be useful to others in Beanswick. Mickey must go back to all of the others in each challenge and give them the item that suits them: the Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Spectacles.png pair of spectacles for Horace, the Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Spell Book.png book of spells for Donald, the Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Glass Slipper.png glass slipper for Daisy, the Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Hammer.png hammer for Hewey, Dewey, and Louie, and the Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Items, Gold Bar.png gold bar for Goofy.

The annoying rumbling occurs again and Mickey throws his beans near the well. Suddenly, a giant beanstalk grows straight up into the clouds. A curious Mickey climbs the beanstalk into the clouds.

Mickey's Ultimate Challenge, Stages, Clouds.png

Solving the Mystery
Mickey encounters a giant up in the clouds. The giant is sound asleep and snoring. This massive snoring is the cause of all the trouble in Beanswick. There is a scrambled picture of an alarm clock standing next to the giant. Mickey must unscramble the picture by sliding the pieces. After the picture is reassembled, the alarm clock rings and wakes the giant, and the troubles in Beanswick are solved.

Master System and Game Gear versions

The 8-bit versions of the game play the same. Players can choose to play as Mickey or Minnie. Mickey or Minnie move with Left or Right. They do a low jump with 1 or a high jump with 2. They enter doorways with Up. There are three difficulty levels: Cake, Medium, and Hard.
