Disney's Mulan (video game)

Disney's Mulan is an action video game for the PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Microsoft Windows and Game Boy Color, released in 1998 and based on the film of the same name which came out that year, in which the game was released the week before, on June 12, 1998. Most of the voice cast, with the exception of Eddie Murphy, reprise their roles from the film.

Plot
Like most Disney games developed by Eurocom, the game follows the plot of the film. Fa Mulan must take her ailing father's place in the army and train to fight against Shan Yu and his army, while meeting Li Shang, Yao, Ling and Chien Po in the process.

Gameplay
The player assumes the role of the titular character. The game is both an open world and platformer, although in many missions the player can walk to other planes via pathways. There are 15 levels and three difficulty modes: Recruit, Trainee and Man, with the last two only being played in the Man difficulty. In the first levels, the player has to collect items to complete objectives.

The player's health can be increased by picking up Mushu coins and Great Stone Dragons. Mulan won't have weapons until later in the game, in which she first acquires her father's sword.

Like in Disney's other game, Hercules, there are hidden letters in levels that, if collected, will form the word MULAN and will allow the player to spawn directly at the next level, instead of starting the game over from the beginning.

There are also cutscenes using clips from the movie
