Opening in June 2012, just one month after the closure of Kim Possible’s World Showcase Adventure, Agent P’s World Showcase Adventure invited guests to become secret agents of the O.W.C.A. (Organization Without a Cool Acronym). Based on Phineas and Ferb, the experience was a self-paced scavenger hunt across seven World Showcase pavilions, where guests helped Agent P (a.k.a. Perry the Platypus) foil the schemes of Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
Participants picked up a communication device—a modified cell phone known as the F.O.N.E. (Field Operative Notification Equipment)—which guided them through missions using voice prompts, animated clips, and GPS-triggered effects. Much of the infrastructure from the Kim Possible version was reused, including:
- Singing beer steins in Germany
- A troll that moved in Norway
- Hidden props and animated effects in France, Japan, Mexico, China, and the UK
Each mission lasted about 30 minutes, and guests could start at designated recruitment stations throughout the park.
In 2018, the game was updated to eliminate the need for physical devices. Instead, guests could access the missions directly through the Play Disney Parks app on their own smartphones. This streamlined the experience and allowed for more flexible participation, while maintaining the same interactive elements and storyline.
In December 2019, Disney announced that Agent P’s Adventure would be replaced by a new experience based on the DuckTales reboot. The game officially closed on February 17, 2020, but the launch of DuckTales World Showcase Adventure was postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The DuckTales version eventually debuted on December 16, 2022, as part of Epcot’s 40th anniversary celebration, using the same infrastructure and app-based gameplay.
