Quick Links
Disney Illusion Island is a Metroidvania where items and levels are locked behind certain abilities. Players will need to collect all eight abilities in order to move through the world, and they will also be needed to collect all the different kinds of Mickey-themed collectibles around during the playtime of Illusion Island. Each map section holds a different ability to unlock.
These abilities are Boost Jump, Wall Jump, Ground Pound, Swing, Glide, Deep Dive, Deep Dive Ram, and Slides. While the collections menu only shows seven of these, players will need all eight in order to complete the whole story.
Boost Jump Ability in Disney Illusion Island
Boost is the first ability players get during Disney Illusion Island. This is more of a long jump than a boost; it can only be used to lengthen a jump from left to right, not add more height.
Wall Jump Ability in Disney Illusion Island
Wall Jump allows players of the well-received Disney Illusion Island to bounce off of walls and get more height. This is unlocked in the Overgrown Farmlands.
Ground Pound Ability in Disney Illusion Island
The Ground Pound slams Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, or Donald into the ground, destroying rocks blocking the path downwards.
Swing Ability in Disney Illusion Island
The Swing ability allows players to grab onto crystals with a long rope, allowing them to swing back and forth. This unlocks everything to the right of the library.
Glide Ability in Disney Illusion Island
Glide unlocks the ability to ride drafts of air. This power is the only way to get up to the Head of Highness location to take down one of the several bosses.
Slides in Disney Illusion Island
While slides aren't really a power, completing the Post Office location called MOPS turns all the dotted lines into light fixtures that can be slid across, Sonic the Hedgehog-style in this family-friendly platformer game.
Deep Dive and Deep Dive Ram Abilities in Disney Illusion Island
Both Deep Dive and Deep Dive Ram are unlocked at the same time. This final set of powers allows players to dive into the watery "moon juice," and then Ram allows players to break items underwater.
After receiving this power, players will be able to go back through all the levels and get all the collectibles. Since this puzzle platformer is also a Metroidvania video game, players will need to use all these powers in combination to 100% Disney Illusion Island.
Disney Illusion Island is available now for Nintendo Switch.
