You follow the wizard, and he kidnaps the girl, commenting that she will make a nice gift for Mr. Wardner. We can't have that, can we?On your quest to save your friend, you have to travel across 5 levels, to reach the evil Mr. Wardner. You will have to destroy monsters, jump over and duck under various traps, and collect gold and orbs to help you with your journey.You have a weapon meter on the bottom of the screen, which shows your current weapon, and weapon power (1 to 8). All weapons use the same power, so if you change weapons, you won't lose the power. The power, rather than making your weapon stronger, lets you fire it faster.

Wiz and Liz are magicians. They live on the planet Pum and brew potions and cast spells. They also tend to rabbit-like creatures called "wabbits". One day, a concoction goes awry and sends all the wabbits to distant parts of Pum. Wiz and Liz set off to look for them. The game is an action platformer divided into several stages. In each one of them, either Wiz or Liz must collect wabbits before time runs out. The player must pick up floating letters that appear when a wabbit is collected, and use them to spell out a magic word shown at the top of the screen. Once the word has been spelled, the newly found wabbits leave fruit, stars, and clocks that increase the time limit. The time limit can also be extended by picking up a glowing orange orb which appears during the last ten seconds of the counter, adding thirty seconds to it.

Mickey Mania 2 was a planned sequel to Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse, set to arrive on the Sega Mega Drive. The game was not officially announced, but its existence was revealed by Jon Burton, co-founder of Traveller's Tales. The game would have played similarly to the first, though would have featured stages based on different Mickey Mouse cartoons as well as including new mechanics. It was cancelled by Traveller's Tales in favour of the console version of Toy Story, though an early prototype is known to exist. Footage of the prototype shows a wild west stage and a ship stage loosely based on the 1934 cartoons, Two-Gun Mickey and Shanghaied, respectively. The latter stage originally featured a scrolling floor and a first-person stage that jokingly used a placeholder HUD to parody Doom - these features would be repurposed for Toy Story.
