Mickey's Philhartasmic

The ride focuses on Mickey Mouse recruiting heroes as new apprentice sorcerers and sending them out to battle various Disney and non-Disney villains organized by Hades scattered throughout the park's themed lands using special spell cards.

Plot
Starting off at the Main Street Firehouse, Mickey welcomes park guests to his special hideout, teaches them the basics of the game with Portal activation and spell card usage and begins to tell the story. Hades, bored with the nothingness of the Underworld, is looking for a new summer home with the Magic Kingdom park looking like an ideal spot, though Mickey stands in his way. He sends Pain and Panic to Mickey's home to steal the Crystal of the Magic Kingdom--a powerful artifact that keeps evil forces in check at the park, but they end up awakening Merlin in the process. In a brief scuffle, the crystal is shattered and scattered to different places throughout the park. Annoyed, Hades decides to call upon a team of villains to help retrieve the crystal shards for him, including Yzma, Jafar, Scar, Maleficent, Ursula, Ratcliffe, Dr. Facilier, Cruella de Vil, Foop and Mr. Clocker, Dr. Doom, Lord Shen, Dr. Doofensmirz, and more.
