Non-Sega versions

The Lion King (ライオンキング) is a platform game developed by Westwood Studios, Inc., Virgin Interactive, and Dark Technologies, and published by Virgin Interactive, Walt Disney Computer Software, and Sega for the Sega Mega Drive, Sega Game Gear, Sega Master System, and several other consoles.

It was developed for the Lion King franchise and follows a story and plot similar to the film. Due to this, it was one of the first games that featured a protagonist that gets older during the game's progress. The gameplay also changes from mainly platforming to a more action oriented approach.

Although intended for children, the game was often criticized for its difficulty even with easier settings. Despite the difficulty, it was rated positively by reviewers and gamers alike.

Gameplay

The player guides Simba throughout eight stages that represent scenes from the movie. The first six stages have a platforming gameplay, with very simple controls: The D-Button is used for moving, C being used for jumping; to defeat enemies you must jump on top of them. Pressing A makes Simba roar, which stuns enemies and when it is at full power it can damage them. Simba can also perform a short rolling attack by pressing Down-left or Down-right while running, which can be used to attack enemies and to traverse certain obstacles.

Reaching stage 7, Simba grows into an adult lion which makes him lose the ability to roll but gives other extra abilities. Simba now can perform a slash attack with B, jumping on top of an enemy then quickly tapping the attack button makes Simba maul the enemy. It's also possible to flip enemies by pressing the slash, then the jumpbutton in quick sucession; alternatively if a Six Button Control Pad is connected, you can also perform it by pressing the X, Y or Z button.

Can't Wait to be King/The Mane Event
The second level in The Lion King is one of the hardest the game has to offer, specifically designed to appease management at Disney who wanted a longer game. This call came too late in development for the team to add new levels, so this stage saw its difficulty increase significantly, meaning it would take longer to complete.

The reasoning is thought to be behind Disney's approach to the rental market. Disney had set specific metrics regarding how far an average player should have progressed in a set period of time - if a game was too easy, the user would be less likely to buy the full retail product.

Simba's Destiny
Simba's return to the pridelands was cut from the final draft of the film, however as the game was made in conjunction with the script, these levels was produced before the decision was made. Reportedly Virgin Games had to fight to keep them in the final product, as Disney wanted the game to be as true to the film as possible.

Versions

In 2019, The Lion King was re-released as part of Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch alongside several versions of Disney's Aladdin. The compilation includes the Mega Drive version, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System version along with its Japanese version, and the Game Boy version in monochrome and "colour" (simulating the game as if it were inserted into a Game Boy Color).
