Plot
Kid Klown and his family are on their way to perform in a circus when they meet the magician Night Mayor (a pun on "nightmare"). He asks Kid Klown to help him open a treasure vault, but Kid Klown, having been warned about the evil magician by his parents, refuses. Not willing to give up so easily, Night Mayor kidnaps Kid Klown's family and dares him to follow him into his world if he ever wants to see his family again.
Mickey Mouse III: Yume Fuusen
In the plot of the original Japanese release, Mickey Mouse is working part-time selling balloons in order to buy a present for Minnie, whose birthday is a few days away. He gets news from Pluto that Minnie cannot wake up. He sets off to visit her, only to find that she has been trapped in a nightmare. Now, Mickey must journey into Minnie's mind in order to free her from the nightmare.
The stage screen in the original game features the song "It's a Small World" in the original. It was changed in the re-release. In the original, the boss in the first stage (not the intro one (hedgehog)) is a vulture. The re-release features an owl. The third stage (based on the folk tale Jack & the Beanstalk) has a giant as the end boss. The remake replaces him with a cyclops. Horned King is the final boss in the original; Night Mayor is the final boss in the re-release.
