Fun, but Frustrating

While it may not be the most classic game ever to come out on the Sega Genisis, Aladdin is definitly a good game
The game has you taking the role of Aladdin (Duh) As he races through Agrabah, seeking to save the Princess Jasmine. Throughout his at times frustrating quest, he must jump through the cave of wonders, run through the streets of Agrabah, outrun lava boulders in a frustratingly difficult and exciting level, and take on Jaffar in a epic confrentation at the end of the game.
The graphics are bright and lively, with lots of colors.
The sound is quite good, with lively and catchy music, fairly good voice acting, and lots of boops, bumps and squeaks
The level design is at times enlighitining and maddining. Some levels, like Genies lamp, Jafars palace and escape from the cave of wonders are just maddingly frustrating to get through
Overall, Aladdin is a good game, but its frustration level takes it down a bit.
The good:
Bright graphics
interesting levels
catchy music
The bad:
nothing
And the Ugly:
really frustrating at times
summary:
If you can stand the frustration, this is a good game to buy if you find it at a low price.
It's not easy

This is a fun game, but don't think it will be easy to get through. It isn't impossible, but some of the levels will take quality time to master. The game is a lot of fun though, and kids will definitely enjoy it, but be prepared for some occassional frustration. It must have taken me 150 tries or so to beat the level where the Cave of Wonders falls apart because the lava boulders kept catching up to me. It's frustrating, but it's a great game for kids to enjoy.
A lot of fun

This game is really fun, but I don't believe it deserves 5 stars. The graphics are crisp as you sidescroll through many worlds, many of which are in the movies. You can through apples at the enemy guards or fight them with your sword. One thing that I find wrong with the game is that when you kill a person, all that they do is poof into some dust. There are bosses in some levels that are quite challenging. The beginning levels are easy, but as you progress they get much harder with the final level of Jafar's palace. This game is a lot of fun and I suggest that you get it if you like older games. If you have one of the new systems, I suggest that you buy a game from that system though.
More Disney fun!

Although this game isn't the best of the best sega games it is still a classic game. A fun and entertaining way for you to spent a time, espically if it is with your friends.
A fun game and very much related to the first movie!

This is an exciting game to play for Sega Genesis. It's a little easy for older kids but younger kids will love it. Get it while you can because it'll be gone before too long!
A Classic!

Aladdin was one of the first games I got for my Genesis, and one of the best. For a game made after a movie it was really good. I got alot of game play out of it. If you still have a Genesis, I suggest you get this game, because who knows how much longer it will be available for.
Great

I grew up with a sega genesis and this is one of the games i always played. It provided hours of fun....i've never beaten it though....the graphics are bad, but that makes the games so much better than the expensive games.....they have their own character. I also love the music....I still have the early levels memorized, but still have a hard time beating them...it's a simple enough game that we always had fun no matter what age, but still hard enough that it provides hours of fun when we bring it back out during the holidays
