Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow – originally released as Donald in Maui Mallard – is a platforming video game developed and published by Disney Interactive Studios. The game was released in Europe on December 8, 1995, and in Brazil in spring 1997 for the Sega Mega Drive. It was also ported by Eurocom Entertainment Software to the SNES and released in North America in January 1997, in Europe mostly in autumn 1996 (although the SNES version was released in Germany at the end of 1995[3]), and in Japan on December 20, 1996. A Microsoft Windows port was released in North America in November 1996.[4] It was ported one last time to the Game Boy by Bonsai Entertainment Corp., released in North America in August 1998.
The game stars Donald Duck in a metafictional role as duck detective Maui Mallard (a spoof of 1980s Hawaii-based TV detective, Magnum P.I. in name and appearance), who adopts the name "Cold Shadow" when he dresses up in ninja garb. For the North American versions of the game, all Donald Duck references are omitted for unknown reasons and the main character is only known as Maui Mallard. Though the end of the game informed the player to look forward to Maui's next adventure, there have been no other appearances of Maui Mallard or Cold Shadow in any medium.
The game was rereleased on the Steam and GOG digital storefronts on May 17, 2019.[5][6]
