"Toy Story Mania!" is a game developed by Papaya Studio and published by Disney, inspired by the Disney/Pixar films in the Toy Story franchise. The game features various mini-games based on each toy from the movie, with settings and environments characteristic of each character. In this review, I will cover the main topics about the game.

What is the premise of the game?
The game challenges you to beat the score targets of the mini-games to progress to the next level. Some levels will be a bit more difficult than others, but nothing impossible to achieve.
Are there different game modes or difficulty levels?
The different game modes are just the mini-games, all with the same goal of reaching a certain score to advance to the next stage. As for difficulty levels, there is no option to choose the game's difficulty level.
Are the visuals faithful to the Toy Story movies?
Yes. The graphics, considering it is an older game with a relatively low maximum resolution, do not disappoint. The game's landscapes are very faithful to their reference materials.

Are the music and sound effects engaging and well-made?
The music and sound effects are quite consistent with the type of emotion they aim to convey. For example, in the tutorial, in the "Pie Throwing" part with Woody and Buzz, the soundtrack manages to keep up with the frenetic pace of the mini-game.
What mini-games are available? And how many are there to play?
The game has a total of 30 mini-games, featuring:
Practice game:
- Woody and Buzz
Western:
- Woody and Jessie
Space:
- Buzz Lightyear
Tea Party:
- Bo Peep
Animal:
- Hamm and Rex
Army:
- Green Army Men
Is it worth playing multiple times?
It depends. If you are a big fan of the franchise as a whole, it is a very fun experience. However, if that is not the case, I believe it is worth playing just once.
Are there rewards or unlockables that encourage replayability?
Yes. To unlock the other available mini-games, you need to play multiple times to collect the in-game currency and buy the other stages.

What age group is the game suitable for?
The game is suitable for all ages.
Is it possible to play with friends or family?
As far as I know, in the PC/Steam version, there is only single-player mode, so it is not possible to play with two or more people. As for the other versions, I cannot confirm if there is a cooperative mode available.
Considering all aspects, does the game offer good value for money?
"Toy Story Mania!" is priced at $19.99 on Steam. At this price, the game is definitely not worth it, as it is quite short. Even for the biggest fans of the game itself, I would not recommend this price. The best thing to do is to wait for a sale to buy it.

Conclusion.
"Toy Story Mania!" certainly delivers what it promises, being based on Disney's Toy Story Mania park. The game will provide you with cool and quite challenging experiences. However, the full price charged for the game is not worth it. Moreover, I believe it is worth enjoying the game during a sale.
