Skull Island is one of the locations in Pirates of the Wasteland that Mickey Mouse visits in Epic Mickey. It is the location of the Pirate Conversion Machine and Pete Pan after Hook took the Sprite away.
Gameplay[]
In one quest, Mickey travels to Skull Island to deal with a machine that's turning Animatronic Captain Hook's pirate crew into robots. Mickey has three choices: filling the tanks with Thinner which destroys the machine, but won't turn the robotic victims back to normal, filling them with Paint would reverse the process. Turn them back into pirates, and a Treasure Chest for Mickey to fill in with paint at the machine awaits. This will also unlock a movie clip in the Extra menu, or, Mickey can ignore or jam the machine entirely, opening up even more choices and quests upon Mickey's return to Ventureland.
Mickey must also find and erase 3 anchors, which are hidden in cave islands near the Skull Island, in order to free Smee's ship. This allows Mickey to ride to the Jolly Roger and face Animatronic Captain Hook.
Geography[]
Skull Island is played out like layers. With ships and enemies at the very edge, and tunnels and caves at the very center as it spirals upwards at the very middle, which gives Mickey a view of the entire level.

Trivia[]
- The island is based off of Skull Rock from Peter Pan, as well as possibly the now-defunct Skull Rock Restaurant in Disneyland.
- In concept art, Skull Rock was depicted with Oswald's head. This may have been the toon version of the skull before the thinner disaster swept away the paint, removing the "skin", as it were, and leaving behind the "bone".
