Adventures in the Magic Kingdom is a 1990 NES action game developed and published by Capcom. The player explores a Disney theme park in search of six silver keys that open the Cinderella Castle gate so the parade can begin.
Each stage is built around a park ride: an Autopia race against Pete, a train ride on Big Thunder Mountain, the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean and a first-person Space Mountain stage. Children around the park ask Disney trivia questions, and correct answers reveal where the last key is hidden. Russian retro writers describe it as several genres on one cartridge: a platformer, a car race, a space flight and a quiz.
Yoko Shimomura composed the music, and Tokuro Fujiwara and Darlene Waddington produced the game. It reached North America in June 1990, while the PAL version arrived on 10 December 1992, two and a half years later, sold in several regions with three different box covers.12
