Summary: Pay attention to the other reviews!
Review: After we installed the game it would not start It froze on a black screen and we had to go to Disneyinteractive.com to download an update. The link there didn't work so we had to email support to send us the update. We were highly anticipating playing the game by the time we were able to get it running and were very disappointed. The scenery and colors are lovely but the game is very difficult to play. It moves very slowly, hotspots are difficult to use, the instructions are badly written and there were not enough things happening on each screen to hold the interest of my five year old.

Summary: Not too bad but still buggy
Review: I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 5-year old who had tried out a few scenes at Disneyland's Innoventions exhibit. Overall, she enjoyed the game and made her way through the scenes with just a little help. The programmers could have made the interface a bit better, though. The "hot zones" (where the pointer changes to allow for an action) are a bit small for some items so it gets difficult to position the mouse over an object to pick it up. Sometimes the pointer doesn't change at all. The system requirements are a bit high and we got just a "good" performance on my child's 300Mhz PII with a 32x SCSI CD-ROM. There are a number of bugs that we found as well. Mickey starts slanting at a 45-degree angle at the pond if you have him repeat a few actions. Music cuts out intermittently at a few scenes. There's also a problem with some earlier revisions of this game and it won't load if your system date goes past 12/31/2000 (a fix was posted to the www.disneyinteractive.com website recently). Overall, this was a decent try but I'd hope that Disney Interactive does a better job next time. I saw the earlier reviews and they seemed split 50-50 between "fantastico" and "thppth". If you think you're PC-savvy enough to deal with these bugs and if your system has the horsepower, this program won't be excessively problematic.

Summary: Disappointed with this game
Review: Out of the many computer games we have bought, this game has been one of the most disappointing. Unfortunately, the layout of the game does not allow you to move to the different areas. Additionally, with a 200 MHz machine, it is very slow to load varios screens. As another viewer said, you have to print out the help screens to figure out how to play. This is not acceptable for a four year old. I am staying away from the Disney Games for now.

Summary: Very confusing, kids lost interest quickly....
Review: There seems to be a lot of difference of opinion on this game, so maybe it's subjective, but...
My kids (then 8 and 5) both dove into this new computer game, much as they do with any new game we get, but quickly found themselves very confused and frustrated. The interface is a bit clumsy; it wasn't real obvious what to do or even what could be done, and there isn't much in the way of in-context help to explain. After a lot of aimless wandering around within the game world, both kids gave up on the program in favor of several others that do a much better job of involving and entertaining them, and haven't gone back to it since.

Summary: Play and go to the movies!
Review: This game is great fun and the graphics are exquisite! My 3 year old conned me into buying this one which I figured would be way over her head and sit on a shelf for a long time. It is a little too detailed for her to play alone but that's okay, 'cuz I love it! You'll need to print out the help section to tell you what to look for because you frequently have to complete 3 or 4 tasks to get to the next step in the game. However, it is worth it because you find yourself wrapped up in the middle of a genuine Mickey Mouse cartoon in which you are a major player. It has romance, good over evil, a goofy professor and a bungling detective. What more can you ask for?

Summary: A Disgrace for Disney
Review: This is a MUST RETURN item. Don't destroy your sales receipt! I can't believe that this product was manufactured and created with the latest computer technology available in the year 2000. It is confusing, frustrating, illogical, and the 3D animation received a big "thumbs-down" by all users. Not even the HELP files can save an adult's self-esteem and sanity. The kids will run screaming from the computer when you drag this one out...
