Ever wondered what would happen if the worlds of Final Fantasy and Disney collided? Its an odd concept, but from the most schizophrenic of acorns the mighty gaming oak of Kingdom Hearts has grown. Legendary role-play game-maker Square has been given unprecedented liberties with the entire Disney universe and has created a game featuring everything from The Nightmare Before Christmas to The Little Mermaid. To have characters as disparate as Tarzan and Donald Duck teaming up is odd enough, but it becomes very freaky when Square throws in a variety of its own characters, such as Cloud, Squall and Aeris from the various Final Fantasies. We are, in short, talking Incongruity City. But this has one side benefit in that the storyline behind the game is by necessity rather vague, which seems to have stopped Square from filling three CDs full of new-age whining about Mother Earth, as is its usual wont. Instead it has spent even more time on the graphics and the end result is a quite stunning three-dimensional cartoon. As for the gameplay, it may come as a surprise to learn that it doesnt actually feature--as all the Final Fantasy games do--turn-based combat. Instead its essentially a scrolling beat-em-up-cum-platformer with exactly the kind of complicated Square-style knobs youd expect. The game may be a little shallow but its an impressive artistic achievement and any title that allows you to magically summon Bambi out of thin air to attack evil demons of the underworld has got to be worth some sort of recommendation. --David Jenkins |

Donald Duck needs no introduction. In his debut 3D action game, Donald Duck Quack Attack he is pitted against a wicked baddie who has kidnapped -- er, I mean ducknapped -- Daisy. Your job is to guide Donald through the 24 levels of the game in order to rescue Daisy. The levels are based across four worlds, and youll have to keep a weather eye on Donalds temper, which gets wilder and wilder if he isnt successful. Its a furious frenzy of action, with Donald behaving in typical fashion. ..

Disneys Peter Pan: Return to Never-Land
|
Personally, i dont find this game the best on the GBA market. The limited graphics and few levels made this game easy, i completed it in a couple of hours. The format of the game isnt even 3D, they should have made this game for the Gameboy colour!
The levels dont even fit in with the actual Pete..

Disneys Magical Quest
|
This is a really good game if you like Mickey and his previous journeys. However it can be a bit deja vu on many of the levels. You do the same as before; hit blocks, get coins, kill enemies,. You can play as Mickey or Minnie, there is virtually no difference in the characters. I found this game a b..

Disneys Peter Pan: Adventures In Never Land
|
First, the good features of Disneys Peter Pan: Adventures in Neverland: its fun to fly around as Peter Pan, collecting feathers and stuff, tangling with various baddies, and exploring colourful 2-D environments. The physics, while rudimentary, give you a vivid sense of Peter Pans weight, and the controls make moving him around a very intuitive affair. The missions are pretty simple, just right for younger gamers. But elements from the Disney movie sequel on which the game is supposedly..
