Gameplay
Mickey facing Big Bad Pete.

The player takes the role of either Mickey Mouse or his girlfriend Minnie.[3] On the way to deliver a present, Pete came along and stole it.[3] The gameplay is a general side-scrolling action game where players destroy enemies with Super Mario World-like blocks.[3] However, the gameplay deviates from the standard Super Mario type of platforming by not allowing Mickey/Minnie to stomp on the enemy's head.[4]

There are items that grant temporary invincibility along with a 1-up and boosts to the player's health.[3] Players have to navigate a lake, the summit of a mountain, through a vast forest, and even stroll through the shopping center while avoiding insects, small mammals, and snowballs.[3] All of these enemies appear in their appropriate levels (i.e., no ghosts in the town level, no flying squirrels in the haunted house level.[4]

Reception

Nintendo Power magazine gave the game a 68% in their March 1991 issue.[3]
