Game Help[edit]

Exterminate the incoming mosquitoes

You'll be stung if any of the mosquitoes reach the bottom of the screen. Use the tools Mickey and Minnie provide to get rid of the pests quickly!

White mosquitoes won't go down unless you hit them twice.

Mechanics[edit]

The objective of this mini-game is to shoot down the mosquitoes before they reach the bottom of the screen. The "CONTROLLER" buttons can be used to move Sora left and right, and the "ACTION" button makes Sora shoot a bullet straight up.

Occasionally, Mickey and Minnie may appear on the side, giving Sora a different type of weapon for 6 uses. Minnie appears on the left and gives Sora a water gun, which pierces through mosquitoes, allowing Sora to hit mutliple mosquitoes in the same column. Mickey appears on the right and gives Sora a corn gun, which fires three bullets side-by-side, allowing Sora to quickly deal with multiple mosquitoes in a row.

After a while, white mosquitoes may appear. After being hit once, they turn into regular mosquitoes.

When a mosquito reaches the bottom of the screen, Sora gets stung and loses a life. The score increases by 10 for each mosquito hit.

Origin[edit]

Camping Out is based on the Mickey Mouse short of the same name from 1934. In the short, Mickey goes camping with Minnie, Horace Horsecollar, and Clarabelle Cow. A mosquito annoys them, and when Horace hits it, it flies to its family, and the entire swarm attacks the campers. The campers try to fight them off. Horace uses a water gun to spray them with molasses, and shoots them with corn.
