Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse (ミッキーマニア), with its PlayStation version known as Mickey's Wild Adventure in PAL regions, is a platform game starring Disney's mascot, Mickey Mouse. Developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Sony Imagesoft, the player controls Mickey as he travels through various levels themed on Mickey Mouse cartoons from 1928 to 1990.

The game was originally designed to be released as part of Mickey's 65th birthday, but as this only left six months to complete the game, the release date was pushed back.

The game was initially released on the Sega Mega Drive and Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The SNES version suffers from several cutbacks, such as the missing Nebulus-like staircase section of the second stage, numerous special effects and Pluto cameos, as well as introducing loading times. This renders the Sega Mega Drive version a superior purchase.

Mickey Mania was later brought to the Sega Mega CD with a CD audio soundtrack. This version was brought to the Sony PlayStation, with an improved color palette and other added graphical effects. Both the SNES and PS1 versions of the game omit the "Band Concert" level seen in the Sega versions.
