Amiga Longplay [162] Mickey's 123's: The BIG Surprise Party

The PC version has way more colors. No reason the Amiga couldn't have a lot more. Well, maybe they wanted to cut down the loading. The first thing you get to do is to press the number of the amount of sheep you want him to dream about (you can press 0 and he won't dream and instead just gets up). Then he says a random name he's going to throw a birthday party for. I wanted it to be Donald so redid the part till I got his name. You need to make a toy for Donald (you can't go home until you make one), and I chose the Mickey Mouse one. I could re-enter and make one of each, but it's slow, so one toy will have to do. If I do re-enter, the toy I made won't have a box next to it so can't make the same one again (he doesn't say anything this time, like he does when I try to invite the same person more than once). I made one of each outside the longplay to see if something special would happen, but nope... didn't think it would anyway, but I wanna try everything. I added the toys at the end of the video. Then you need to (well, you don't HAVE to, but you DO need to enter the food store for the Party sight to appear) buy food for the people/characters you want to invite. You can decide to buy 0 food, but then we won't get to see the part when he puts it in the fridge or distributes it to the guests. I chose to buy 9 out of all the things to give the guests as much as possible. Should maybe have randomized the number a bit so it wasn't always 9, but ye, I wanted everyone to get as much as possible to be a really good host :). However, I chose to give Chip 'n' Dale 2 burgers and fries instead of 1, as they are 2, but Gus Goose just an apple and a milk as he needs to lose some weight :P If I don't invite anyone and just go home, everything will play out the same, but he's the only one in the room, until Donald comes in of course. He still says "Quiet. Donald is coming!" even though he's the only one in the room. Guess we can pretend he's talking to the player :). I chose to first invite Minnie as she's his girlfriend. Also, if you try to invite the same person twice, he says he's already invited them, like you saw at 10:07 - "I already invited... Donald" (ye, left in the pause :P). At the end when he goes to sleep, I play the game again by clicking a number of how many sheep I want in his dream, then he wakes up and says a random person he's gonna throws a surprise birthday party for and it's on again. I read a review in an old magazine complaining about the loading, that it would scare of kids, "which we all know has like an attention span of half a second". I agree, because it does stop and load quite a bit when running from floppy, and it does so in some bad places that should have been preloaded. He then says it's too bad it can't be installed to hard drive. Well, I found no problem installing it on a HD. It was as simple as copying all the files from the 2 floppy disks to the HD, and then run the "MA" file. So, if played from a hard drive, it's a really good 1-9 number learning game for kids... and maybe some adults, who knows ;). I liked playing it :)
