O===========================================================O


There are two basic modes in the game. Kids and Normal.

Kids mode is a really easy adventure where Mickey will
automatically walk to the areas that need exploring. You don't
have to collect items or anything either. I recommend this
for kids six years old and younger.

Normal mode is the actual story mode where you collect items
to escape the mansion. It's not that much harder, but this
is for the older kids (like me), who want some actual
gameplay.

I will cover the walkthrough for Normal mode in this guide.
Kids mode doesn't need a walkthrough, as Mickey does
everything for you.


O===========================================================O
=                     D. Status Screen                      =
O===========================================================O


There are a couple of things on the screen besides Mickey
and the mansion.

Stars
 The stars in the upper-left corner are your stars and star
 containers. When a star container is blue, it is empty.
 When it is yellow, it has one star. Collect more star
 containers to collect more stars.

Yellow sack
 The yellow sack in the bottom-left corner is where all of the
 collected items are kept. You can also check the number of
 keys, mirror shards, and stars you have.

Book
 Click on the book to save your game.

Key
 The key and number in the upper-right corner show how many
 keys you currently have.


O===========================================================O
=                    E. Cursor Icons                        =
O===========================================================O


Since this game is a point-and-click adventure, the cursor
on the screen is a very important feature in the game. There
are various types of cursors that will appear as you progress
through the game.

Gray hand
 The gray hand is the normal cursor, just in neutral. There 
 are very few things you can click on with the gray hand.

White hand
 The white hand is the move cursor. When you move the hand 
 over an important spot, the hand will turn white. This means 
 that if you click on the spot, Mickey will walk to where you
 clicked. If you click twice he will run.

Pink hand
 The pink hand is just for fun. Click on different parts of 
 Mickey's body to see the different reactions.

Door
 The door cursor is for opening doors. Just move the hand over
 a door to see it appear.

Open door
 This appears when you have opened a door.

Key
 The key cursor will appear after you've clicked on a locked
 door. If you have a key quickly click the door to unlock it.

Magnifying glass
 The magnifying glass cursor is for inspecting items or
 other important spots. When you see the magnifying glass,
 click immediately!

Star
 The star cursor appears when you have found a Trick spot. The
 Trick spots are special events in the game. There is always
 a star requirement for Tricks, so make sure you have enough 
 stars.

Sack
 When the white sack appears you are supposed to use one of
 the items in your item sack.


O===========================================================O
=                       F. Tricks                           =
O===========================================================O


Tricks are special events in the game that are usually the
way to get further ahead.

Tricks will always require a certain number of stars, so make
sure you collect any stars you see. You will also need to
collect star containers. They are blue star-shaped jars that
you will find through out the mansion.

When the star cursor appears over something, that means you
can do a Trick there. A number will appear inside the star
cursor. That is the required number of stars for that trick.


O===========================================================O

O===========================================================O


If you have a Gameboy Advance, Magical Quest Starring Mickey
and Minnie for the Gameboy Advance, and a GBA to Gamecube 
link cable, you can change something in Magical Mirror.

Here's what GameSpot says:

"If you own a GameCube-GBA link cable, you can upload items 
you buy in shops (from Magical Quest Starring Mickey and 
Minnie) into the recent GameCube game Disney's Magical Mirror 
Starring Mickey Mouse."

I assume these items are bonus items that appear in Mickey's
bedroom, but I'm not sure. If anyone out there knows for
certain, drop me an e-mail.

                          -Notes-
This walkthrough is for Normal mode. Kids mode does not
require a walkthrough as Mickey does everything for you.

Also, this game is very non-linear. You can go any way you
please and still manage to beat the game. I just planned
out the easiest way.

Finally, I wrote this walkthrough based on finding all of the
mirror shards. But if you follow it, I also point out every
other item and Trick there is. If you want to just find the
locations of items, check below in the Item List.


-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    a. Mirror Shard 1                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
                         -Entrance-
After watching all the cutscenes, you'll find yourself in the
entrance to the ghost mansion. A hand will be pointing to
the door on the left, so click it open. After that the door
will point to the right door, so click it open as well.

Watch the next cutscene, then get your first star container!
Click it when the magnifying glass appears. Now that helpful
hand will point to the far door, so go ahead and open it.
A Trick screen will appear, and a star cursor. This Trick
will cost one star, so go ahead and do the Trick.

Ouch, that wasn't very nice! Anyway, get the key and unlock
the door to go to the next room.

                      
                       -Mirror room-
Hey, it's the mirror! Watch the cutscene then inspect one of
the mirror shards. After that you'll have to go through the
door on the left. The door on the right is the end of a warp
door, so it can't be opened on this end.


                        -Hole room-
Collect the gold star in the middle of the room, then walk
over to the hole in the wall. Peek inside and grab the first
mirror shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    b. Mirror Shard 2                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Now walk over to the closet and do the Trick to get your
first key. After that, exit through the door on the left.


                       -Green hall-
Grab the stars in this next hall, then try to open the door
at this end. When the ghost appears, use a Trick on him to
slide the carpet away. Get the next mirror shard from the
floor at the other end.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    c. Mirror Shard 3                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Go to the door that is closest to the door with green plants. 
You will use your key to open it.


                       -Piggy room-
You'll find a star container, a gold star, a piggy bank, 
and a gold coin in here. Click on the star container a
few times to knock it down and get it, then walk in front
of the piggy bank and get the gold coin.

Inspect the piggy bank twice, then insert the gold coin.
Now leave to the Green hall.


                       -Green hall-
Go to the door at the far end.


                       -Sword hall-
Not much in here, yet. Just grab the gold star and leave
through the other door.


                       -Grand hall-
Wow, a grand hall. Much better than a normal hall. Anyway,
walk downstairs and get the star container that is hidden
behind the stairs.

Once that is done, click on the chandelier hanging from the
ceiling. Use the two stars you have for the Trick, then
watch the eerie cutscene. 

Now walk to the door on the left, but don't enter. Get the
mirror shard on the ground to have a grand total of three
mirror shards. 

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    d. Mirror Shard 4                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Get any silver stars that have appeared.

Walk back up to the second floor and go to the flower vase
on the left balcony. Click on the flower to get it, then go
over to the empty vase on the other side. Inspect it twice,
then do the Trick to get another key.

Now go back to the Green hall.


                       -Green hall-
Enter that door on the left that you didn't open yet.


                       -Candle room-
Inspect the candle in the center of the room. You'll have to
press A rapidly to light it up, but it's not too tough. Once
it is lit, two red orbs will appear over the bed. Move the
cursor over them to do a Trick.

The ghost will appear, but quickly do the Trick that's 
shining on the ground in front of Mickey. The ghost will
leave, and you will get a gold coin. Turn on the light
switch on the left, then go back to the Piggy room.


                       -Piggy room-
Keep coming in and out and collecting stars until your star
containers are full. Drop off the gold coin, then go back to 
the Candle room.


                       -Candle room-
Inspect the bed and Mickey will start jumping on it. Do the
Trick that appears on the bed, and you will get a key. Enter
the door on the left.


                        -TV room-
Hey all right, a TV! But there's no time for that now. Get
the Donald doll that's on the couch, then the star container
hidden behind the couch. You can inspect the TV, but it
doesn't work. Go through the broken door


                       -Train room-
Nothing in here but stars, so go into the next door.


                        -Toy room-
Next to the horse you should see an open box. Inspect it to
find a flashlight.  Inspect it two more times, then get the
green collar that appears behind Mickey. Once that is done, 
inspect the witch on the table. She'll weave a bit of magic 
and shrink you down to toy size. Collect any stars lying 
around on the ground, then approach the train station.

Inspect the luggage on the ground, then do the Trick and
watch Mickey board the train. Do another Trick on the
luggage to have it chase Mickey, then do one more Trick to
save Mickey. You will get a star container as your reward.

You're now in the Train room, so get the doghouse that is on
the train platform, then go into the TV room by entering the 
mouse hole (ironic, ain't it?)


                        -TV room-
Walk behind the TV. Hey, that's why it didn't work! Plug in
the TV. Go back to the Train room through the broken door.


                       -Train room-
Walk in and a rather ominous rubber duck will pop out. Click
on the red bridge to try and get away from it. No, he's
still after you. You're cornered!

Quickly do a Trick on the power cord to get away. It's not
over yet. Do a Trick on the toy plane to get away for good,
then you'll find yourself in the Flying Ace mini game. Check
below in the Mini Games section to find out how to play.

Go back to the Toy room.


                        -Toy room-
Inspect the wooden horse in the far corner. Do the Trick and 
grab the fourth mirror shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    e. Mirror Shard 5                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
We're all done in this area for now, so go back to the
Green hall.


                       -Green hall-
While we're here, go back to the Hole room.


                        -Hole room-
Look inside the hole, and use a trick on the loose board
above Mickey's head. You don't get anything, but I figure
we might as well do it.

Now it's time to explore the first floor, so go all the way
to the Grand hall.


                       -Grand hall-
Go down to the first floor and enter the door on the left.


                       -Wooden hall-
There will be three doors here. Go to the door farthest away.


                        -Tea room-
Click on the chair and it will slide out. Right before
Mickey sits down, you can do a Trick on the chair. You'll
have to do this very fast.

Click on the chair again, but this time let Mickey sit down.
When the tea pot and cup appear, click on the tea pot to do
another Trick. Again, you won't get anything for it.

Go outside and come back in to find a picture of Mickey and
his girl, Minnie. Now back to the Wooden hall and enter the
other door.


                         -Kitchen-
Get the pink ribbon that's on the table, then go and inspect
the green cabinet that's in the upper-right corner. Click on
all of the knives and forks so that they're all moving, then
do the Trick. Afterwards you will get the fifth mirror shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    f. Mirror Shard 6                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Now go and inspect the other cabinet. Do the Trick on the
flour jar, and you'll get a shiny new gold coin. Go to the
door in the bottom-left corner and use a key to unlock it
and enter.


                          -Alcove-
There's not much to on the first floor, so go up to the
second. Click on the lamp that's hanging from the ceiling to 
get a Goofy plaque, then use your other key to unlock the next 
door.


                       -Footstool room-
Inspect the stool in the middle, but unfortunately you can't
get the key yet. Inspect the other stool and then place it
on top of the first stool. Once Mickey is on top, make fast
circles with the control stick to save him from falling.
The key will be your reward.

Ignore the blue door because it will only warp you to the
door in the Mirror room. Use they key to unlock the other
door and enter the Crazy hall.


                        -Crazy hall-
The Crazy hall is crazy because all those doors just lead to
another door in that room. 

Enter the second door on the left, and four more Mickeys
will appear. Click the first Mickey that's to the right of
the real one. Click three times and all the Mickeys will
vanish, and you will get another star container.

The only real door is the third one on the right, but you
need a key to get in. So go all the way back to the Grand
hall.


                       -Grand hall-
Go into the door on the opposite end.


                        -Dark room-
This Dark room doesn't have anything, so go down the stairs
to the Basement.


                         -Basement-
It's your typical spooky basement. Go straight to the door 
and open it. Watch the VERY familiar cutscene (Devil May Cry,
anyone?), and then you'll be thrown into the Flying Sword
mini game. Look in the Mini Games section to find out how to
play.


                       -Storage room-
After the chase you'll be in a Storage room. There are two
paintings of girls in there, so go and inspect the painting 
near the door.

After getting a clue, do the Trick on the painting. Hah, tell
me that didn't at least startle you! Anyway, Mickey will get
thrown back. Use another Trick on the pair of shoes, and
the ghost will run off. Pick up the key.

Inspect the painting of the girl without a flower, and give
her the flower you have in your items. A secret door will
appear. Go inside.


                           -Cave-
You have the flashlight, so now you can look around. Walk
ahead and you'll see something shining on the ground.
Inspect it to find the sixth mirror shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    g. Mirror Shard 7                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Leave through the other end of the cave.


                         -Gear room-
You'll see a mass of gears, but you can't do anything with
them yet. Also avoid the blue warp door.

Go upstairs and through the open doorway.


                        -Clock tower-
Sunlight, beautiful sunlight! Walk down the stairs to find a
key at the bottom. That's all you can do here, so go back to
the Storage room.


                       -Storage room-
Go to the picture of the scary girl. Do the Trick again, then
do the shoe Trick again. But, when he runs away this time,
chase after him! Do it while Mickey is still mad.


                        -Dark hall-
This is that hall that the flying sword chased you through.
Click on the ghost to keep chasing him to the Basement.


                         -Basement-
When Mickey gets near the mace, quickly turn the control stick
to grab it. Mickey will bring the ghost and he'll run away
again. Keep chasing him.


                        -Dark room-
Go to the Grand hall.


                       -Grand hall-
Looks like the tables have turned. The ghost is now scared of
you. He'll run off, and you can finally stop chasing him.

Now go all the way to the Alcove.


                          -Alcove-
Go upstairs, and into the Crazy hall.


                        -Crazy hall-
Go into the third door on the right. Use a key to unlock it
and enter.


                         -Bee room-
Grab the remote control from the table, then inspect the 
couch. While Mickey sleeps, a bee will appear. Keep clicking
on Mickey as he runs away, then watch bust a Matrix move.

The bee will fly off, and reveal the seventh mirror shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    h. Mirror Shard 8                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Go through the next door.


                         -Fish room-
Inspect the fish. You'll go through three sequences where you
rapidly press A, but afterwards you will get a marble.


                        -Closet room-
There will be three closets and a plant in here. Click on the
plant a few times to get a flower pot.

Inspect the first closet on the left to do a Trick and get
knocked in. Do the Trick again to knock the hand in. Quickly
press A and move the control stick to get the eigth mirror
shard.

-------------------------------------------------------------
-                    i. Mirror Shard 9                      -
-------------------------------------------------------------
Inspect the closet on the very right to do a magic Trick.
Go back to the Fish room when you're done.


                         -Fish room-
Unlock the door at the top and enter.


                          -Rug room-
Enter the door on the right.


                         -Music room-
The only thing you can do is inspect the guitar in the back,
so do it to play the Guitar Master mini game. Check below in
the Mini Games section to find out how to play.

Go back to the Rug room.


                          -Rug room-
Go up the stairs to the Attic.


                           -Attic-
Grab the star and the windmill in the middle of the room, then
go all the way back to the Alcove.


                          -Alcove-
There are a bunch of holes in here, and you have to drop the
marble into one of them.

                       O
O       O
           O     X


                 O
   O                   O

These are the locations of the holes, and X marks the hole
you should inspect. Do it and drop the marble in. Go down and
get the next star container. Go back to the Grand hall.
