Donald Land
is a 1988 platform video game produced by Data East in association with the McDonald's Corporation for the Family Computer, based on the McDonaldland franchise. Gameplay Unlike the commonly compared '' M.C. Kids'', ''Donald Land'' is simply a platformer without any puzzle elements to it. The game centers on Ronald McDonald (often known in Japan as Donald McDonald). Most of Ronald's companions have been kidnapped and all the animals have turned feral. His brainwashed companions will occasionally attack. Ronald can defend himself using apple bombs, thrown in a carefully calculated parabola. Being hit by an enemy causes damage, which decreases Ronald's "Life" meter. During various parts of a stage, players have the opportunity to collect up to 100 hamburger icons throughout the game. This will result in gaining a bonus life along with the hamburger counter resetting itself to zero. It is also possible to play a mini-game challenge, to earn commodities that the player orders from ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
