Disney and Microsoft take been rolling out the hits lately, introducing three new games in the concluding few days, including Lost Light, Jelly Automobile three and Disney Solitaire. This morning, the classic Mickey Mouse game 'Castle Of Illusion' arrives on Windows Phone and Windows 8.ane, making it quite the combo.

Castle of Illusion came out for iOS and Android tardily last year, so while the game is not brand new, information technology'due south not that old either. Conspicuously Microsoft and Disney have a partnership going where they're bringing all new (and older) titles over to the Windows ecosystem, something that should sit well for those with children.

What can y'all expect from Castle of Illusion? Over at Microsoft'south Burn down Hose, they describe the game thusly:

"The evil witch Mizrabel has kidnapped Minnie Mouse and taken her to the castle, where Mickey must seek her out. Mickey must travel through enchanted forests, accept on armies of rebellious toys and navigate mazes of living books – all in search of his captive sweetheart. There are five magical worlds filled with Mizrabel's powerful minions, twists and turns, and hidden challenges to uncover and master."

It sure sounds like a wild ride, especially for fans of the archetype game now re-imagined for tablets, PCs and your phone. Check out the trailer for the game to go an idea of what to expect.

That'southward the skillful news; the bad news is both pricing and the lack of trial. For the Windows version, y'all're looking at a $xiv.99 price tag, while Windows Phone is still a super expensive $9.99, (and no, these are not even Xbox Alive titles). Throw in the fact that at that place is no trial for either version, and we're not certain how many of y'all will blindly spring at this offer.

In anticipation of your complaints, nosotros'll be working on a demo video of both games in the next day, so sit tight, and we'll give you our initial thoughts and impressions.
