And the music (especially the main theme) is so so sweet....it touches your heart. I am so glad they made a sequel to it.… Expand

    This game is 100% an underrated gem for the Wii. While the platforming and the camera is kinda crap, and the game-play can get repetitive, the other stuff about the game was obviously made with a passion by it's developers. The story is actually really engaging and the dark tone makes it a really unique Mickey Mouse game. It's a shame Junction Point got shut down though.

    This is the game of my childhood. Epic Mickey is the link between the happy Mickey Mouse and a dark word, Wasteland. The gameplay is so simple, but the hard platforming and puzzles make the game always fun to play. One of my favourite game.

    As a kid, this game was an amazing journey in every shape and form, i love the magic feel it has to it and have never really experienced anything like this before.
    If you are a fan of platforming, definetely get this game, it's worth everything it's worth.

    This is a great game play it if you haven't. It's really well written and visually amazing for the wii. Some issues, but it is still very very good. I can understand people not liking the camera controls, but everything else runs very smoothly.

    A great game, definitely. The story is interesting, the characters are intriguing and made me want to watch all of Disney's cartoons. The gameplay is very creative, and the world design is beautiful and amazing. Also, the fact that some things change depending on your behavior is awesome. There are some technical issues, like the annoying camera, but overall, it's one of my favorite games ever.

    Este juego lo da a juzgar por su nombre, una propuesta creativa y fuera del concepto de Mickey al que nos hizo ver cosas de disney olvidadas parcialmente, algo genial del juego.

The cutscenes are especially unique and well-done, and they fit into the game. Many say that they were disappointed by the lack of voice-acting that was replaced with grunts and moans, but I personally think it fit. Any voice-acting probably would have broken the immersion and atmosphere. The story is also unique in the sense that it is based off of truth: characters lost to history are reintroduced and remembered once more in a great story that will entrance you with its characterization and plot. The game, however, does fall slightly in the gameplay area: the controls are a bit bothersome, but more annoying are the quests that are essentially fetch-quests. But I did like just running around and exploring the different areas of Wasteland, experimenting with different choices and paths every playthrough. The morality system (dubbed "play-style matters") wasn't as deep or enjoyable as I think it could've been, but I still had fun with it. I was hooked and played through it as many times as it took to get every precious pin, and I loved every minute of it.… Expand

It's a great 3D and 2D platformer that pays homage to the Disney stories and characters of old. Mickey is transported to "Wasteland", a place where the forgotten Disney character like Oswald the Lucky Rabbit go to spend the rest of their days. Wasteland is a cool place to explore, because it's filled with Disney history and has sort of creepy post-apocolyptic vibe to it. The setting really couldn't be more impressive and it's a heck of a lot of fun to play.

    Gameplay is divided up into both 2D and 3D platformer sections. The latter of the two does suffer from some light control and camera issues, but they don't hinder the enjoyment that you'll have with this game much at all. The 2D sections are levels based off of old Disney cartoons like Steamboat Willie. These sections are a nice change of pace from the regular gameplay. There are some issues with the touchy jump controls, but it's no biggie. Aside from some late game difficulty spikes and the occasionally awkward level-design I have no other complaints.

    There is a lot of content for players to sink their teeth into. With all of the side-quests and moral choices this game feels part RPG, which is a good thing. You can spend many hours in Wasteland and still have something to do. I really can't think of a reason why Disney fans shouldn't pick this game up. It has got some issues that hold it back from excellence, but it's still a great experience. It's worth playing just for the history lesson alone.    … Expand

    Epic Mickey is, in my opinion, an amazing experience. Yes, the camera sucks, but once you get used to it it just becomes a part of the game- an integral part of combat is constantly moving the camera, but it becomes very natural. Disney took a daring step with this game, and they didn't 100% make it, but I say they did a pretty good job. Another thing- for the wii, the graphics are killer.Epic Mickey is, in my opinion, an amazing experience.

Although some environments can be annoyingly dark, overall the level design looks great. And the enemies you fight- literally I have no idea how Junction Point managed to force the Wii to handle it. Naturally, because of this there may be a couple of instances of lag, but its nothing serious. It bogs a little at one point with fetch quests on Mean Street, but toward the end of the game I could not stop playing. My verdict? It's cheap. Pick it up. (PS- Replay value is tremendous)… Expand

    As you may have noticed I chose this game title as my username for this website because it is just SO AWESOME! The story is deep and fascinating, the music is good and doesn't grind on the nerves, the gameplay is rich and challenging and, best of all, it is exciting to see old characters that SHOULD have been popular through today. It is overall a terrific Disney game.

    Epic Mickey is not a perfect game. The camera is atrocious and the sidequests are mundane fetch quests for the most part, but the main gameplay mechanics are well worth the buy, or at least a rent.

    For me, 'Epic Mickey' is kinda like a magic game. It gives kinda the nostalgic feeling from old platform games and adventure games. The only thing that I can complain about is the camera angle, but you can get to it by time.

    Definitely for hard core Disney fan for sure, the level design plays solid with nice dimensions. The goofy graphic style is caricaturist. But also feels like a mature version, some creepy presentation is suddenly. Undoubtedly needs to get more sharpened because it isn't for anyone.

Other characters include various incarnations of Pete, Clarabelle Cow, Horace Horsecollar, and others. These were characters that I was raised on and it is so great to see them in the spotlight once more. The platforming elements were easy to get used to. The game moves from 3-D to 2-D platforming seamlessly and the morality system is fun to experiment with. I look forward to the potential for more games continuing the story of the Wasteland.… Expand

    Epic Mickey is Disney's best attempt at a global well known game, yet they still haven't hit the nail on the head. Whilst what has been introduced is new and attractive, the enemies are few and far between, and the concept becomes boring after a while, with only thinner and paint as your weapons.

    Epic Mickey may not be the best game out there for Wii, but it's among the most original. It's extremely challenging and the magic Disney world that has been recreated is much fun to explore and interact with, and the skills of Epic Mickey Mouse are so cool you won't be tired of practising them.
