Broken Bridge: In the remake, you won't be allowed to enter each level until you have collected enough diamonds. Boss-Only Level: The third stage of each level in the remake. In the Master System version, the final level takes place inside the heart of the castle, where Mickey must go through several platforming segments before facing off against a dragon and Mizrabel herself. Each door Mickey enters leads to a new level, and in the Genesis version, the final battle against Mizrabel takes place in the castle's turret. Big Fancy Castle: The hub of this game takes place inside the titular Castle of Illusion. Thankfully, you don't need to retrace the level when you pick up the key, the platforms turn into ramps and you slide down all the way back to the exit. Backtracking: In one of the sections in the Toyland level in the Genesis version, the door to exit is at the beginning of the level, but you need to climb all the way to the top to find the key. The latter even features a moment where Mickey must let the auto-scrolling catch up with him to push him through a narrow passageway. Auto-Scrolling Level: The Master System version has two: the first section of the cakes and sweets level, and the second section of Mizrabel's castle. Asteroids Monster: The letter A's from the Master System version split into three smaller versions when attacked. Anthropomorphic Shift: In the original, Mizrabel's true form is a mouse person like Mickey and Minnie. The costumes are an explorer's outfit that is unlocked by finding all the chili peppers, a magician's outfit unlocked by finding all the playing cards, and a knight's suit of armor that is unlocked by defeating Mizrabel.

It is largely very faithful to the original game's structure and there isn't any much in the way of new content, but thanks to being a 2❝ platformer, it has more elaborate setpieces and bosses compared to the original game (several of which are in full 3D, including the main hub) and the Excuse Plot is given some extra meat by having a narrator narrating through the game and give context to things that were left unexplained in the original game, on top of having unlockable statues that expand on the bosses' personalities. Adaptation Expansion: Downplayed in the remake.The remake limits these to the Echanted Forest, Toyland and the Castle respectively, while adding golden orbs and sweets to the Storm and Library levels. Abnormal Ammo: The Genesis game gives you apples, marbles, and candles to throw at your foes.
