OsTown is a location and hub world in Epic Mickey and Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two.

It is Oswald's version of Mickey's Toontown of the Disneyland theme park, at the foothills of the imposing Mickeyjunk Mountain. Ortensia's, Clarabelle's, Mickey's and Pirate Moody's homes are located here. In the center is a fountain with a statue of Oswald, which is pouring with Thinner.

In Epic Mickey and Epic Mickey: Rebrushed[]

OsTown is the gateway to get to Mickeyjunk Mountain (where Oswald the Lucky Rabbit exiled himself). After arriving there, Mickey meets up with Clarabelle and tells Mickey that if he needs open the bridge to Mickeyjunk Mountain than he has to find Gremlin Prescott, who is trapped in the safe.

Mickey meets Moody, a pirate who's house was thinned, so he's seeking shelter underneath the safe. Mickey can either paint his house to help him remember the combination, or just thin the plank, causing it to fall on Moody's head and left him unconscious though the rest of the game. Either will get Prescott out, but he tells Mickey that he needs his wrench back from the Telephone.

While talking to the Telephone, they tell Mickey to restore the phone lines throughout OsTown to give Prescott's wrench back. However, Prescott askes Mickey if can go in and take it from him, which he can allow, but doing so will cause the Telephone to be dismantled. If Mickey declines Prescott's request, than he will have to paint in the fuse boxes throughout OsTown. Their locations are on the side of Mickey's house, on the roof of the Gag Factory, underneath the garden of the Clarabelle Cow's house, and behind a wall on the ledge to the left of the Gag Factory. Mickey needs to thin out the latter two to access the fuse boxes. By doing the quest, Mickey will get another another telephone quest in Mickeyjunk Mountain.

After Prescott has regained his wrench, he will lower the bridge and reveal the Projector Screen to Mickeyjunk Mountain.

Next to Oswald's Fountain, is the head of Animatronic Goofy, where he will ask you if you will find his spare parts. If you accept, you will find them in Tomorrow City. Fixing him will unlock Ortensia's house.

There are several Power Sparks in town. Thin out the Gag Factory for Abner in front of the factory to get one. A second one is on the roof of Mickey's house, while a third one can be found on top of the Gag Factory, hidden under the chimney. Gilda will appear later on the bridge to Mickeyjunk Mountain, who will offer you another race. If Mickey succeeds, she will give him a Power Spark.

Later, after you get a gear from Animatronic Donald in Bog Easy, you will be able to get Moody to raise Donald's tugboat, which has sank in the thinner river.

Dynamic Music[]

Neutral: The use of light, gentle instruments alongside deeper string sections shows OsTown to be a melancholy place, where the effects of the thinner are most visible in stark contrast with the cheerful toon neighborhood.
Paint: The soft sounds from the Neutral version are isolated and built upon to give an idea of what OsTown once was. It is much more innocent, bearing toy-like sounds comparable to the feel presented by Mickeyjunk Mountain.
Thinner: Deep woodwind and shrill string sections paint OsTown as a truly hopeless place. Otherwise triumphant sound brass sections portray the area as post-apocalyptic, devoid of color and life.

In Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two[]

OsTown returns as a hub world with certain changes; there is now a Train Station that can transfer you to Mean Street South, Bog Easy, or Ventureland (although you must repair the stations first in order to do so). The houses are crammed next to each other with toon hills you can thin them to expose a balcony with breakable containers. During Mickey's first visit to OsTown Mickey's House will be continuously sprayed with thinner. Clarabelle's garden has been moved behind her house and is accessible by going into her house.

There is now a river of thinner with a bridge, on the other side of the river is Moody's House which is now much bigger and built into another building, the house is now enterable with Moody inside. Mickey can find Rigger Greene next to Moody's House leaning on a pillar.

The Gag Factory has been reopened, next to the factory a platform the moves up and down next to it, on the other side of the factory Prescott's Supercharger next to the factory. the ledge next to the Gag Factory has been extended with the D.E.C from Mean Street North located on it. The original bridge to Mickeyjunk Mountain has collapsed making it no longer accessible due to go to Mickeyjunk Mountain.

When you first arrive at OsTown, Mickey, Oswald and Gus will enter the Gag Factory, Gremlin Prescott will quickly hide something from Mickey, Oswald and Gus in a cutscene. Here, he'll explain that the D.E.C. to Rainbow Falls is down the Thinner sinkhole, and that Gremlin Jamface gave Goofy some pumps, but it would take too long to process them. He showed Goofy how to do the job much quicker, though as evident by Goofy's holler, it turns out that something went wrong. Once Goofy hands Mickey the Fairy Sketch, Mickey is given the choice to either repair the pumps Goofy or Jamface's way (by repairing all 3 pumps) or Prescott's way (by supercharging one pump). Either way will reward you with a pin, but Prescott's way will cause the thinner to spray to get much worse now also spraying on Clarabelle and Ortensia's houses.

You can return to Ostown during the Second visit to find many quests from the residents: Moody, Clarabelle, Ortensia, and Goofy. If Mickey repairs Oswald's Fountain, Mickey's House will stop being sprayed with thinner. Upon returning to OsTown for a second time Gremlin Maroon will take over Prescott's job in the Gag Factory, and he will ask for Scrap Metal to fix up the floating scenery above the walls around OsTown, if you repair the statue Mickey can give Gremlin Maroon some scrap metal to add a Mickey statue next to Oswald's statue.

Trivia[]

Epic Mickey[]

Compared to other current Toontown lands in Disney parks, OsTown is very small, or at least has very few buildings.
It is hinted that Mickey's House in OsTown was originally Oswald's home, before exiled himself on Mickeyjunk Mountain.
There's two loading screen images in the original Epic Mickey, one where Mickey is thinning the beam with the safe, and the other where Mickey looks at the statue. The latter only is used when heading back from Mickeyjunk Mountain after the fight with the Blot.
There is a minor glitch with Gilda's race, where if you tap the A Button as fast as possible, after completing a race, she will give you the challenge again. So if you return her Axe, and take the two races, including the glitch race, you can obtain a total of three Power Sparks from Gilda in Ostown alone.
There's a speed run skip that involves clipping through the collusion in the gap from the closed bridge to the projector, skipping the entire Bridge Repair questline. Doing this does not break the game, and it defaults to Mickey had done Paint Moody's House, although the house is still unpainted.
The dancing mailbox next to the Gag Factory seems to resemble other dancing mailboxes from the 2003 MMO game ToonTown Online.

Epic Mickey 2[]

In an interview, Warren Spector said that OsTown would have an even bigger role in Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. However, due to time constraints, this turned out not to be the case, as you are only required to enter OsTown once during the whole game in order to reach Rainbow Caverns via the D.E.C. The other missions in OsTown are small side quests.
Rainbow Caverns, OsTown and Disney Gulch may have been the first levels made for Epic Mickey 2.

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed[]

In Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, the sinkhole next to Clarabelle's House now has a bed inside of it.
Mickeyjunk Mountain is now visible from OsTown.
OsTown uses the post Bloticle battle ambience as its default ambience for unknown reasons. It presumably might be an error.
