If you've seen or played this game on other platforms, this one is not identical. This version has different characters and plot. The game has translated well for the Gameboy color with its clear and colorful screens.The story, famous reporter, Daisy, has succeeded in entering the secret temple of Merlock, the terrible magician and the obvious bad guy in the game. While reporting on live TV, she was about to show the evil Merlock's castle when the TV screen became scrambled. No one knows what happened to her. Who else, but our hero, the typical moody Donald Duck is off to rescue her. To do this, Donald has to survive all the challenges in four different locations. Also, there is one blueprint for each level and Donald has to find them so that Gyro Gearloose can build the machine to put Merlock away forever.
This is a typical platform game with a lot of jumping from platform to platform, crawling, avoiding creepy crawlies, and chasing bonus items such as extra lives. We all know Donald as one of the moodier Disney characters and the game has special candy to change Donald's mood from happy to hyper to angry and finally, to berserk. Other than this, there is nothing new to gamers who enjoy Mario and Pikachu.
Hardcore gamers will be bored with the game. But, it's a decent game that is more entertaining for younger kids and Donald Duck fans.
