- Even with all of its flaws, however, the game behind the nostalgia is an excellent one, and the sheer quality of the production values combined with the wonderful love shown to the license make this a great pick-up for platforming fans.
Shaun Musgrave · Apr 03, 2015 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - DuckTales Remastered is a game worth playing regardless of whether or not you’ve played the original. If you already own this remake for consoles or PC you could probably do without this version (although being able to play it on the go is still cool), but if you’re a total newcomer this is as good a place to start as any.
Rob Rich · Apr 02, 2015 Reviewed on iOSRead full review - DuckTales Remastered makes some minor missteps in the attempt to revive one of the greatest NES games of all time, but then again, the latter is a pretty tough act to follow. Mechanically, the game holds up great, and I had a smile on my face nearly the entire time. So long as you can overlook a few fundamental issues, old and new fans alike shouldn't miss re-experiencing this lovingly crafted classic.
Chris Carter · Sep 13, 2013 Reviewed on X360Read full review - The original release may not be as good as you remember it, but DuckTales: Remastered is an affectionate rendition that will be sure to pluck at your nostalgic heart strings. For those without a reference point, this may feel like a pretty but archaic platformer, but if you can get past the obtrusive cut-scenes, fans of the NES classic shouldn’t think twice about giving this a quack.
Simon Thornton · Aug 30, 2013 Reviewed on PS3Read full review - I love me some Scrooge McDuck, and hopping around on a pogo stick is surprisingly fun. But I couldn't shake the feeling that I was playing a 24-year-old game with pretty visuals and voice acting. That may be enough for some fans, and perhaps the nostalgic flood of memories will carry more weight than the game's notable flaws for those people. As for me, I think watching some re-runs of the old television series will satisfy my DuckTales needs.
Anthony LaBella · Aug 20, 2013 Reviewed on PS3Read full review - Don’t let the cartoony graphics and Disney branding fool you. DuckTales: Remastered is a challenging platformer that’s absolutely brimming with charm. The campaign may be short and indicative of its source material, but it has been updated in a way that makes the experience feel fresh and guarantee that you’ll be back for more.
Ron DelVillano · Aug 15, 2013 Reviewed on Wii URead full review - DuckTales Remastered performs as well as expected. WayForward has proven, once again, that if someone wants a platformer with perfect 2D, cartoon-y visuals, there's only one developer to trust. They've worked with Capcom to perfectly tap into the nostalgia factor that made DuckTales a classic when we were young and DuckTales Remastered a solid gaming experience today. Sure, a few things are different and a bit more involved and embellished than before, but it's lovely overall. If someone already has more than a passing interest in DuckTales, then DuckTales Remastered will satisfy their needs.
Jenni Lada · Aug 15, 2013 Reviewed onRead full review - I was afraid that if I removed the nostalgia blinders that DuckTales would join so many classic games in my “what the heck was wrong with me” shame pile. Fortunately, this is one of those games that stands up well to the test of time and is still worth playing today. Just because you can’t hum the entire DuckTales theme song doesn’t mean you won’t enjoy DuckTales Remastered. It does mean you’re a terrible person, but that is another subject entirely.
Nikola Suprak · Aug 15, 2013 Reviewed on X360Read full review - Almost, nearly, but not quite a great update. While new looks, sounds and design tweaks give DuckTales Remastered modern appeal, spoon-feeding gameplay features and inane cutscenes peg back the enjoyment somewhat. It'll make you feel nostalgic and you'll have fun - but you'll also know that with just a little more attention to detail, it could have been truly great.
Jaz Rignall · Aug 15, 2013 Reviewed on X360 - DuckTales: Remastered looks great, sounds phenomenal, plays well, and even offers up a few surprises for those who think they know what to expect around every turn. There are issues present – most of which are a product of the game’s archaic design – that may have you quacking with anger on occasion, but they’re not enough to make this trip to Duckburg, and beyond, any less satisfying.

Trailers & Screenshots:
DuckTales: Remastered is a beautiful hand-crafted reimagining of one of the most cherished 8-bit titles of all time. Go back to one of the golden ages of gaming, now refined with a level of detail that will please the most hardened devoted Disney or retro Capcom fan alike. Featuring hand-drawn animated sprites, authentic Disney character voices talent and richly painted level backgrounds from the classic cartoon TV series, Scrooge McDuck and family come to life like never before. The gameplay retains the authenticity of its 8-bit predecessor; simple and fun, with slight modifications to improve gameplay flow and design.
