Synopsis
by Brett Alan Weiss
The world's wealthiest aquatic fowl is always on the lookout for more riches. When he hears of five ancient treasures buried around the world and beyond, he immediately sets off to find them. You control Scrooge McDuck as he goes on what may be the most dangerous money-grubbing spree of his life. Disney's DuckTales takes you through five exotic environments in total: the Amazon, Transylvania, African mines, Himalayas, and the moon.
You'll climb ropes and chains, ride a helicopter and UFO, hop on a pogo stick, and more. You can play the worlds in the order you desire. Levels are filled with secret rooms, tricky pitfalls, dangerous traps, and an assortment of troublemakers, villains, ruffians, creatures, and other bad guys. You can either jump on enemies or use your cane to knock objects into them. You can also smash rocks and open treasure chests for bonuses.
Certain friends and family members of Scrooge are on hand to help in the quest for treasure. Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby dish out helpful hints, Bubba Duck presents a special treasure, and Mrs. Beakly offers Scrooge a delicious treat. Collectibles include coins for invulnerability, food for restoring hit points, and dolls for extra lives. Once you have found all five treasures, you will enter a final battle to protect your riches from a dastardly villain. Three difficulty settings are available for players of all skill levels.
