I had this game on the Amiga when I was very young and I have so many amazing memories of playing this. The visuals were awesome, and the mini games were fun and non-repetitive. Such a great game!

Give me give me!!! A collection form the past. it as so much of my childhood graved on it. In this game, you must collect as many tresaures that you can, and letting Scroge Mcduck take a nosedive in his mountain of money. what is not to love? Played it when I was sick when I was a small kid, with my mother. Disney should make a remake... just saying. time to play your cards right GOG and give them this idea. ;) you are welcome! ps. If remaking this game, consider the versions. DOS and Amiga. look at the quality colors and sounds. love this game!

So many great memories playing this game. The platforming stages with Donald's Nephews were sometimes very tricky and the cave game was always scary for me as a kid because the mummy could jumpscare you. xD

Prince of Persia
Prince of PersiaThe game is set in ancient Persia. While the sultan is fighting a war in a foreign land, his vizier Jaffar, a wizard, seizes power. Jaffar's only obstacle to the throne is the Sultan's daughter (although the game never specifically mentions how). Jaffar locks her in a tower and orders her, under threat of execution, to become his wife. The game's nameless protagonist, whom the Princess loves, is thrown into the palace dungeons. The player must lead the protagonist out of the dungeons and to the palace tower, defeating Jaffar and freeing the Princess in under 60 minutes. In addition to guards, various traps and dungeons, the protagonist is further hindered by his own doppelgänger, an apparition of his own self that is conjured out of a magic mirror.
