History VideoGame / EpicMickey2ThePowerOfTwo

* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Averted, in terms of uselessness anyway. [[WordOfGod Warren Spector]] has confirmed that the various costumes you can unlock have direct gameplay consequences.

* CutShort: [[spoiler: Mickey is still in Wasteland when the game ends, and, after the credits, you can see Pete and his incarnations (your actions determine if Petronic appears) kidnapping Prescott and taking him through a projector. With Junction Point being shut down, neither of these will be resolved.]]

* [[spoiler:DiscOneFinalBoss]]: Gremlin Prescott.
* DistressedDude: Along with the unnamed gremlins scattered around like in the first game, [[spoiler: Gremlin Jamface needs to be rescued from the Mad Doctor's Attic. Gremlin Prescott finishes the game like this, presumably to be rescued in a third game- too bad that will never happen.]]

* TheEndOrIsIt: The ending of the game, as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T0FDaxlTMk this video]], appearing [[TheStinger after the credits]], shows.

* [[spoiler:HeelFaceRevolvingDoor]]: The Mad Doctor claims he's reformed and offers to help the heroes take down the incoming threat. [[spoiler:And then, surprisingly, the BigBad is Prescott. But THEN it turns out he's not: Prescott was a pawn in the Mad Doctor's escape-Wasteland plan. But then you can have the Mad Doctor do a real HeelFaceTurn in the end, if you pick the good ending.]]

* IAmBecomingSong: ''That's what heroes do''/''I'm a toon again'', sung by the Mad Doctor too, as he's performing a HeelFaceTurn and at the same time finally transforming into a real toon.

* LargeHam: The Mad Doctor. Also, Pete.

* [[spoiler:TheStinger: While everyone is celebrating the Mad Doctor's [[MultipleEndings defeat/redemption]], the Petes are developing plans of their own, which is hinted at when you find the odd costumes in the Mad Doctor's Attic]].

It was released on November 18th 2012.

It features co-op play, with a second player controlling [[OswaldTheLuckyRabbit Oswald]], who flies like a helicopter and attacks with electricity. The game is also a [[TheMusical musical]]. Marv Wolfman (''ComicBook/TeenTitans'') co-wrote the script.

* LostForever: Averted with the action stages in this game, as players can now backtrack through areas they've been through. Still remains true for the sidequests and the decisions you make for each of them, though.

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Prescott at first, then [[BiggerBad The Mad Doctor]]. Let's face it, he wasn't fooling ''anyone''.]]

* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons: [[PetesDragon Elliott]] in the form of [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot a robotic version of his Main Street Electrical Parade float]].

* LargeHam: The Mad Doctor.

* IWantSong: "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6FS97Pb4wI I'm Falling Apart]]'' is sung by the Mad Doctor.

* HerrDoktor: The Mad Doctor has this kind of accent, although it sounds more Russian than German.

There is also a companion game for the Nintendo 3DS called ''EpicMickey: PowerOfIllusion''. It was developed by [=DreamRift=], the folks behind ''HenryHatsworth'' and ''VideoGame/MonsterTale''. Officially a followup to the ''CastleOfIllusion'' series as well, the story has Mizrabel and the castle itself trapped in Wasteland. Seeking a way out, she tries draining the paint and cartoon essence out of famous toon residents of Mickey's world. Mickey must save his fellow toons and confront Mizrabel, repairing the damage with paint along the way.

* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: The paint and thinner morality meter has a very clever effect on the ending cinematic of the game. [[spoiler:Depending on whether you used more paint or thinner to solve your problems, Mickey will instinctively spray the Mad Doctor with whichever you used the most of, resulting in a pivotal moment that completely changes the entire ending sequence.]]

* FridgeHorror: Happens to anyone who remembers ''PetesDragon'' and/or the old Main Street Electrical Parade - especially if they're taking the Thinner Path. The "Blotworx Dragon" boss is actually the parade's version of [[spoiler:that movie's titular dragon, Elliot]].

* BrokenAesop: The game's theme seems to be "a second chance is what we all deserve". The Mad Doctor [[spoiler: [[MultipleEndings can]] turn good on his ''third'' chance only through brainwashing from the brush, Prescott gets put in jail and no one so much as talks to him afterwards (though, to be fair, he was kind of nuts at that point), and Pete, being a reoccuring villain in shorts, is probably on his thirtieth chance by now.]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Prescott at first, then The Mad Doctor. Let's face it, he wasn't fooling ''anyone''.]]

* [[spoiler:HeelFaceRevolvingDoor]]: The Mad Doctor claims he's reformed and offers to help the heroes take down the incoming threat. And then, surprisingly, the BigBad is [[spoiler:Prescott. But THEN it turns out he's not: Prescott was a pawn in the Mad Doctor's escape-Wasteland plan. But then you can have the Mad Doctor do a real HeelFaceTurn in the end, if you pick the good ending.]]
