The Disney Afternoon Collection

ESRB Rating:E10 - Everyone (Ages 10 and up)
My Rating:Ages 6 and up
Genre:Platformer / Shoot 'em Up
Fun-O-Meter:4 out of 5 Stars
Summary:This is a collection of six NES games that were based on popular cartoons from the Disney Afternoon programming block. In these games, you'll be helping Scrooge McDuck gather treasure, guiding the Rescue Rangers through two adventures, defending St. Canard as Darkwing Duck, and assisting Baloo as he makes his unusual deliveries aboard the SeaDuck.

Brief thoughts:There is some fairly mild violence, as defeated enemies simply get bounced off the screen.

Also, while Disney's penchant for magical mischief appears to some degree in nearly every title, it stays very tame and never gets more spooky than the cartoons the games were based on.

Powerup
Games often include items that give the player character a useful bonus of some sort when collected. Since these items usually increase the player's character's power briefly, they are called powerups.
