Thanks to GameInformer, we now have another large batch of details for the upcoming Disney title 'Epic Mickey'. Above is a new screenshot of gameplay thanks to the magazine, but below is a summary of what we've been told:
- Yensid is the one who creates a world for forgotten creations

- Mickey uses his magic mirror to get to Yensid's world - he then spills paint thinner on the minted world
- Because of what Mickey did, the Phantom Blot takes over the hidden world and turns it into a wasteland
- Oswald among other forgotten characters fail to fight off the Phantom Blot
- Years later, Mickey's magic mirror comes alive and takes him in
- Mickey must escape the blot, look for Oswald, and leave the world
- Mickey takes a paintbrush into the Wasteland, which can be used to paint or be used as a thinner
- Can either build or destroy the world
- Two styles of play: Destroy or create
- Mickey's appearance will change based on how you play
- Health can be obtained by trading items
- At one stage you'll need to find animatronic items to bring Donald Duck back to life.
- Gameplay is to be a mix of platforming/exploring/role-playing
- You can move into different areas by jumping into projector screens
