    Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse (ミッキーマニア), with its PlayStation version known as Mickey's Wild Adventure in PAL regions, is a platform game starring Disney's mascot, Mickey Mouse. Developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Sony Imagesoft, the player controls Mickey as he travels through various levels themed on Mickey Mouse cartoons from 1928 to 1990.

    The game was originally designed to be released as part of Mickey's 65th birthday, but as this only left six months to complete the game, the release date was pushed back.

    Being a rather late release and having a considerable 16 Megabit ROM size, the game features detailed animation, varied background graphics and plenty of impressive programming tricks.

    Gameplay

    Mickey Mania is a side-scrolling platform game. Mickey is moved around with Left and Right and jumps with C. He can crouch with Down. He can defeat enemies by jumping on top of them or by throwing marbles at them with B. Marbles are limited but can be found throughout the stages. Mickey can throw marbles while jumping but not while crouching. He can also push objects with Left or Right when adjacent to them, which is necessary to progress in many of the stages.

    Mickey has five hit points (represented by a picture of his gloved hand). He loses a hit point each time he takes damage from an enemy or an environmental hazard (including fire and deep water), but he can replenish his health by finding Stars. Mickey retains his health and his marbles from stage to stage. Mickey loses a try if he loses all of his points, and restarts with half the marbles he had (or 10 if he had less than 10). If he loses all of his tries, the game ends, though it can be continued as long as the player has continues remaining.

    Steamboat Willie (1928)
    Steamboat Willie was the first Mickey Mouse cartoon to be distributed, and so is generally considered to be the starting point for the character. Mickey Mania is very liberal with this cartoon, featuring not just a ship but a wharf area which slowly turns from monochrome to colour as Mickey progresses through the stage. To proceed through the wharf, Mickey must ring bells to lower the bridge, and knock out Pete in order to use him as a trampoline.

    A pair of boxes operated by cranes serve as the boss of the stage and attack by dropping bombs on Mickey, periodically moving off the screen to reload. Mickey must stop the cranes by destroying the gears by jumping on them or throwing marbles at them. The lower gears take five hits to destroy, while the upper gears are too high to jump on, but are destroyed with three marbles - to reach those, Mickey must bounce off the lower gears or the occasional spring dropped by the cranes.

    The Mad Doctor (1933)
    Mickey Mania's depiction of The Mad Doctor deviates the most from the original source material in that the entire stage is presented in colour, when the film was originally in monochrome. After crossing the bridge, the stage sees Mickey swing over fire and acid pits, ride gurneys while avoiding buzzsaws and spikes, descend down a Nebulus-style tower, ride an elevator and mix chemicals in order to destroy a door.

    Much like the cartoon itself, there is an encounter with the Mad Doctor (or Dr. XXX) and a captured Pluto is rescued (the major difference being that in the cartoon, Mickey is also captured before waking up to find the whole thing was a dream).

    MickeyMania MD MooseHunters Chase.png

    • MickeyMania MD MooseHunters.png

    • MickeyMania MD MooseHunters Chase.png

    Moose Hunters (1937)
    Moose Hunters deviates considerably from the original cartoon, in that Mickey's cohorts, Goofy and Donald, are nowhere to be seen. Instead, Pluto warns the player of incoming moose, culminating in a chase sequence. To escape from the chasing moose, Mickey must jump over rocks and water, and collect apples for stamina. If he goes too long without picking up an apple, he will gradually slow down and be run over.

    Lonesome Ghosts (1937)
    Lonesome Ghosts also lacks Goofy and Donald, who play equal roles to Mickey in the original short. The stage also deviates even further from the cartoon by having Mickey make his way through the basement, which is filled with staircases that turn into slides when climbed. The hallways see Mickey riding barrels across water that will hurt him if he sinks into it and pushing a table while avoiding attacks from the ghosts.

    MickeyMania MD Beanstalk.png

    Mickey and the Beanstalk (1947)
    Like with the previous two cartoons to be featured in the game, Donald and Goofy are absent. The stage sees Mickey travelling through the gardens and an underground tunnel filled with spiders, which sees him ride a ladybug to escape a giant spider. Afterwards, he must climb the steps to enter Willie the Giant's castle and cross a table filled with food.

    Willie the Giant is also nowhere to be seen in most versions of the game, though the PlayStation version featured him in a chase sequence.

    MickeyMania MD BandConcert.png

    The Band Concert (1935)
    In Mickey Mania, The Band Concert is a bonus stage found in the third area of Mickey and the Beanstalk, and grants the player an extra continue if completed. The Band Concert was the first Mickey short to be presented in colour, though curiously most of the "band" is missing in this game.

    • Mickey Mania CD, Pete Fight, The Mad Doctor.png

    • MickeyMania MD PrincePauper Boss.png

    The Prince and the Pauper (1990)
    The most recent cartoon to be represented in the game (with a 43-year gap between this cartoon and Mickey and the Beanstalk), and the longest in the game. Mickey must find Pauper Mickey in the library, then make his way into the dungeon to rescue the Prince, then make his way up Pete's tower.

    The final boss is Captain Pete. To defeat him, Mickey must trick him into jumping on spikes five times, then flip a switch to hit him with a ball and chain six times. The Mega-CD version adds an extra part before the original fight where Mickey must collect pencils to summon the Mickeys he has met throughout the game to help him.

    Mickeys

    In every stage of the game, Mickey meets a past version of himself from the source film of the stage. Most of them are encountered in the normal course of completing the stage, with the exception of Mad Doctor Mickey, who is found in a hidden room in the elevator segment of the stage. Band Concert Mickey is seen at the end of his stage, but his stage is hidden and must be found first.

    History

    Legacy

    Many of the ideas seen in Mickey Mania, specifically that of platforming through levels based on old Mickey Mouse shorts, were brought forward in the 2010 Wii game, Epic Mickey and its 2012 sequel, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two.

    Versions

    Mickey Mania CD, Parachute Spider.png

    Parachute spider enemy

    The game was initially released on the Sega Mega Drive and Super Nintendo Entertainment System. New additions are an improved water effect in the Prince and the Pauper section and extra background layers in Mickey and the Beanstalk sections in the Nintendo's console. However, the Super NES version suffers from several cutbacks, such as the missing Nebulus-like staircase section of the second stage, missing Band Concert bonus level, and numerous special effects and Pluto cameos, as well as introducing loading times (among the longest loading times for a cartridge-based system).

    Mickey Mania was later brought to the Sega Mega-CD with a CD audio soundtrack and a lot more voice tracks. Mickey now comments on enemies, sections and happenings in stages. The fight against Pete was expanded, with Mickey calling all previous incarnations for help. New "parachute" spider enemies were added to the underground segment of the Mickey and the Beanstalk level.

    The Sega Mega-CD version was then ported to the PlayStation (as Mickey's Wild Adventure in Europe), with an improved color palette and other added graphical effects, the difficulty level was also increased (for example, the skeletons in the Mad Doctor stage release more bones) and a new chase section was added to the Mickey and the Beanstalk stage.
