Game Description
Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, also known as Epic Mickey 2, is a platform action-adventure game where you step into the shoes of Mickey Mouse and his buddy Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Instead of just running and jumping, you get to paint and erase parts of the world around you to solve puzzles and clear obstacles. Got a thing for classic Disney with a twist? This game delivers a quirky blend of creativity and teamwork, but it’s far from your typical Disney romp.
What’s Epic Mickey 2 About?
In this sequel to the original Epic Mickey, the spotlight is shared between Mickey and Oswald. You can switch between the two or play co-op if you have a friend around, which spices up the gameplay quite a bit. The story is simple—fix the messed-up cartoon world—and your main tool? A magical paintbrush that can either create or erase objects. Sounds cool, right? But be ready for some puzzles that might make you scratch your head.
