Best and worst Disney/Warner Bros games

[happyguy1984]

I just wondered what people would rate from best to worst the Disney games and the Warner Bros games that were released on the Master System. The Disney games were

1)Aladdin
2)Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse
3)Deep Duck Trouble starring Donald Duck
4)The Jungle Book
5)Land of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse
6)The Lion King
7)The Lucky Dime Caper starring Donald Duck

The Warner Bros games were

1)Cheese Cat-astrophe starring Speedy Gonzales
2)Daffy Duck in Hollywood
3)Desert Speedtrap starring Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote
4)Taz-Mania

Lucky Dime Caper is my favourite.
The Mickey Mouse games are a close second.

Don't really care for the WB games

I would say all the Disney games are better than the WB games.

Ranking the Disney games is pretty tough as they're all good. But here goes:

1) Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse
2) The Lucky Dime Caper starring Donald Duck
3) Land of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse
4) The Lion King
5) Aladdin
6) Deep Duck Trouble starring Donald Duck
7) The Jungle Book

I suppose The Little Mermaid and Legend of Illusion could also count as Disney games.

Castle of Illusion is my number 1. That game utterly captivated me when I first played it. It's marvellously good.

Can't really think of the worst. Don't enjoy deep duck trouble much.

Castle of illusion is the better game of the lot. I just like LDC out of nostalgia.
Deep duck trouble feels very rushed to me. Not very clean-looking en not very fun either... Should play it again though

I love the Lucky Dime Caper too, but my sister actually beat it before me, so it's a painful memory for me. Great game though, really well put together.

LDC is a Fantstic Game with the best graphics and jingly tunes and all on a master system

It also has a great challenge in it as well.

My top three would be:

1. Castle of Illusion - the only reason I can see why this game doesn't get the praise it deserves (other not being a Nes game) is because there's a Mega Drive version - which actually isn't as good.

2. Lucky Dime Caper, another awesome (and very challenging I think) platform game that would be held as an all time classic if it had been on a Nintendo system.

3. The Jungle Book, I had this as a kid and loved it. There's quite a lot of variety in the game, its well worth giving a proper play as it gets better as you progress.

The worst two are Aladdin which has the looks but not enough game, and Daffy Duck which seems totally forgettable to me.

Hmm, i would rank them:

- The Lucky Dime Caper - I always liked Donald more than Mickey and the game is more challenging
- Castle of Illusion - Great game, it's always a bit sad when people say "Oh yeah, great game on the Genesis" or like those idiots from Gamesack said "There was also a Master System version but of course it was inferior". While The Genesis version looks and sound better, i prefer the level design of the MS version. For some reasons the Mega Drive version never could capture my atention. It's just too easy.
- Land of Illusion - Great sequel, horrible underwater level
- Legend of Illusion - Mediocre, doesn't deserve the "Illusion" as those were always great game, this one isn't
- The Jungle Book - Mediocre
- The Lion King - Begins good, gets weak. All versions feel like the designers created the last few levels in the last week before their long-awaited vacation. It just feels lazy.
- Deep Duck Trouble - Way better on the Genesis, here it's just a very bad conversion.
- Aladdin - Sucks and i don't understand the hype for Aladdin games, i don't even like the Genesis version as the level design is lazy and the graphical jokes ("he dropped his pants...funny") get boring after 5 minutes

Never played Arielle


As for Warner:
- Taz-Mania...it's fun
- Daffy Duck in Hollywood - Mediocre license game
- Desert Speedtrap - Mediocre license game
Never played Cheese Cat-astrophe

[wayeK]

I haven't played any of the disney games....
looks like I'm ebaying up castle of illusion and lucky dime caper since those seem to be getting all the top votes

I played cheese cat-astrophe before and actually found it to be quite fun!

Disney games, best at the top, worst at the bottom:

Land of Illusion - One of the best on the system and a great improvement over its predecessor.

The Jungle Book - A superb platformer that captures the spirit of the film beautifully.

Castle of Illusion - Although surpassed by its sequel, this still has a lot to offer.

Deep Duck Trouble - A complete improvement over its predecessor with better music and controls.

Lucky Dime Caper - A decent game but horribly frustrating and flawed in places: eg the pyramid level in which infinite lives can be obtained, the way objects can't be picked up until they land, a stupid health system and the awkward controls.

The Lion King - Pretty decent but not as good as The Jungle Book.

Aladdin - I thought this would be great as the Game Boy version is one of my favourites on that machine but this falls flat.

Of the Warner Brothers games, I only like Taz-Mania as I've never played the others much.

[wayeK]

how is taz-mania compared to the megadrive release?

[robocod]

Usual suspects for me too,Land Of Illusion,World Of Illusion and then LDC are all good,Tazmania is good with some interesting use of colour that give it the cartoon look.

[drrotule]

according to me, castle of illusion is the best disney game and one of the best game on master system !
