Alone this gun would actually be a fairly useful weapon, its shot strong enough to wear down most dangers without too much work unless they’re meant to be a trial and the weapon even coming with a few alternate ammo types to grab.
The detective sets out to find it, armed at first with just a gun that can fire special bugs with different properties. Maui’s adventure on the island is one undertaken to avert certain disaster, the idol of the island’s guardian Shabuhm Shabuhm missing and its retrieval the only way of preventing an explosive end to the entire world. Despite some of its odd choices and unfocused island setting though, Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow actually is brimming with effective ideas and surprising artistry. The bonus levels are referred to as luaus, Maui ends up getting trained to be a Japanese ninja, the Muddrake natives evoke broad tribal stereotypes, and elements outside of island cultures like mojo and a witch doctor are thrown over top in this scattershot assemblage of ideas. For this Super Nintendo action platformer Donald Duck is essentially an actor portraying the character of Maui Mallard, a duck detective who washes up on a tropical island that is seemingly a mishmash of various Pacific Island cultures.
release of the game to avoid even mentioning Donald Duck makes for a rather strange implementation of this requirement. Seemingly this emerged from a Disney mandate where all video games made by Disney Interactive had to stem from a preexisting brand, but then for the U.S. Donald Duck is a fairly flexible mascot for Disney to throw into new situations like his superhero stint as Paperinik, but for some reason in Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow, the game tries to avoid even mentioning he’s playing the role of protagonist.
