10 Video Games That Rewarded You For Losing

10. Spawn King Mickey By Dying To Certain Bosses - Kingdom Hearts II

Kingdom Hearts II is no picnic of a game, but if you find yourself struggling with some of its bosses, Square Enix will lend you some aid direct from the House of Mouse.

If Sora dies during certain boss fights throughout the game, you're given the option to tag in King Mickey Mouse, who will temporarily become the new player character, giving you another opportunity to wail away on the boss.

Mickey will stick around until he either revives Sora or dies himself, though given that Mickey generally isn't able to finish the bosses off, you'll need to get Sora back in the action at some point.

Still, considering that Mickey is a mighty fighter, this is a massive help for those in trouble. Keep in mind, though, that while Mickey can show up multiple times per boss encounter, the chance of him doing so decreases each time that Sora dies.
