Play Aladdin (Beta) Online

Aladdin on the Super Nintendo came out in 1993, developed and published by Capcom. It was part of that wave of early 90s platformers, a time when developers were really starting to push what the SNES could do with color and animation. This was a licensed game, but it had a different feel from the other big Disney releases of the era.

You control Aladdin, navigating him through the marketplace, palace, and the treacherous Cave of Wonders. Your main goal is to rescue Princess Jasmine from the villain Jafar. The gameplay is built on tight platforming, using your scimitar to parry enemy attacks, and tossing apples to stun guards from a distance. You collect gems to earn extra lives and find hidden 1-ups, and the levels are designed with a good mix of straightforward running and more deliberate, screen-by-screen exploration. The difficulty is fair but can spike in later stages, especially during the magic carpet escape sequences. It feels responsive and fluid, with a real sense of momentum in every jump and sword swing.
