Story
Scrooge McDuck finds the legendary Golden Amulet on an uncharted island somewhere. Unfortunately, the amulet is cursed and puffs him up into a floating balloon. It falls on his nephew, Donald Duck, to return the amulet to the island and lift the curse.
Gameplay
Donald can kick blocks with the
button when standing adjacent to them. Some blocks are kicked towards enemies to defeat them, some are treasure chests that break open to release power-up items, and some have special purposes within the stage that allow Donald to safely bypass certain obstacles. Donald can also jump with
or swim underwater with ![2](/images/thumb/7/7f/2Button.svg/16px-2Button.svg.png)

. Most enemies can be defeated by jumping on top of them. Some areas are accessed by bouncing off enemies.
Donald has three life gems and loses one when he takes damage from an enemy or other hazard. He loses a try when he loses all three. Both life gems and tries can be replenished by finding items in treasure chests.
There are four areas initially available, which can be played in any order: Jungle, Volcano, Inlet, and Valley. After completing these stages, Donald enters the Shrine of the Golden Amulet, where he must return the amulet to the island goddess.
