Aladdin is a side-scrolling platformer based on the 1992 animated Disney film. The player controls Aladdin , who must make his way through several levels set in locations from the movie: from the streets and rooftops of Agrabah, the Cave of Wonders and the Sultan's dungeon to the final confrontation in Grand Vizier Jafar's palace. The Sultan's guards and desert animals want to hinder Aladdin in his way.
Aladdin can defend himself with his sword or by throwing apples, and also collect gems which can be traded for lives and continues with a traveling trader. Finding Genie or Abu icons enables bonus rounds. The game's humor is attributed to the creative animations made by Walt Disney Feature Animation.
The gameplay of Aladdin involves navigating through levels, avoiding obstacles and enemies, while collecting power-ups and gems to progress. The game features a unique blend of action and adventure elements, making it an enjoyable experience for players.

Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a platformer adventure game where players guide Aladdin through various levels, avoiding environmental hazards and enemies like the Sultan's Guards. The goal is to overcome obstacles, defeat bosses, and ultimately find the Genie's Lamp to ensure Aladdin's safety.
Story
Hot Coals
Watch out for falling baskets and spiteful Knife Jugglers.
The Desert
The sand is hot. Take it slow and be prepared to take on more of the Sultan's Guards.
The Agrabah Rooftops
To finish this level, find the floating Flutes and make the most of the resultant magic. There are even more of the Sultan's Guards to worry about.
Razoul, the Captain of the Guards, must be defeated if Aladdin is to escape. Take advantage of the flagpoles and ropes!
The Sultan's Dungeon
Mind the Bats, spikes, and swinging wrecking balls. Don't despair if you keep getting let down by the sliding platforms — careful timing is the key!
The Cave of Wonders
Treasure is everywhere, and so is the trouble. The Shiva statues are cunning, but not as dangerous as the Shiva Monkey.
You must find the Genie's Lamp if Aladdin is to reach safety.
The Escape
The cavern is crumbling and the fiery lava lake is erupting. Can you outrun the fireballs?
A Rug Ride
A magic carpet is just the thing for speeding away from red hot lava waves. Don't ignore the Genie's hand pointing out the best route through the big boulders blocking the way.
The Sultan's Palace
Keep the flamingos squawking to cross the lily pads. Don't fall in because Aladdin can't swim!
The Palace Guards are everywhere, so beware. Use the ropes to your advantage and look out for the trapdoor.
How to Play
Getting Started
•
Set up your Game Boy or Super Game Boy as described in its instruction manual.
•
With the Power Switch OFF, insert the Aladdin Game Pak, its label facing toward you, into the Game Boy (or Super Game Boy) and press it down firmly.
•
Push the Power Switch to ON. After a second or so, the Nintendo Screen will appear. When the Aladdin Title Screen is shown you are ready to play Aladdin!
•
If the Nintendo Screen or Title Screen doesn't appear, push the Power Switch to OFF. Ensure your Game Boy or Super Game Boy is set up correctly (do the Game Boy's batteries need replacing?) and the Aladdin Game Pak is properly inserted before pushing the Power Switch to ON again.
Important Note
Always ensure the Game Boy or Super Game Boy's Power Switch is set to OFF before inserting or removing the Aladdin Game Pak.
Playing Aladdin
The evil Jafar is up to no good. He has Princess Jasmine trapped in the Sultan's Palace, and only Aladdin can avert certain catastrophe!
Make the most of Aladdin's athletic repertoire of moves, his dazzling scimitar skills and his ability to adapt to even the most demanding conditions to bring him safely through 9 action-packed levels based on key scenes from Disney's animated feature film. Can you handle it?
The Aladdin Title Screen
After the Credits have been shown, the Aladdin Title Screen is presented. Two options are given: 'START' and 'OPTIONS,' with a sword pointer to show which one is to be selected.
•
Press the Control Pad up or down to move the sword pointer from option to option.
•
Press the A Button, B Button or Start Button to select the option.
Start
Select this to begin play.
Options
Select this to call up the Options Screen.
The Options Screen
Four new options are presented. Unique to the Options Screen, the option to be selected will flash.
•
Press the Control Pad up or down to move between the options.
•
Press the A Button to change or select the flashing option.
Difficulty
NORMAL or you could choose PRACTICE or DIFFICULT. This option determines the number of Aladdin characters and apples available when play begins.
•
Select PRACTICE to start with 6 Aladdin characters and 15 apples.
•
Select NORMAL for 4 Aladdin characters and 10 apples.
•
Select DIFFICULT for only 3 Aladdin characters and 5 apples.
Music Is
ON or you can select OFF if you don't wish to hear the music adapted from the Academy Award® winning film soundtrack.
Sound FX Are
ON or choose OFF if you don't want to listen to the effects during play.
Exit
Select this to return to the Title Screen.
Story Descriptions
Note that between levels the story will unfold through short scene-setting descriptions.
•
Press the Start Button to skip the descriptions.
Using Ropes
Aladdin can climb on any rope he finds. Simply jump to a rope and push the Control Pad up to grab it.
Aladdin can use his sword or throw apples when he's holding onto a rope. To get off a rope, jump to the left or right— but look before you leap!
•
Press the Control Pad up or down when Aladdin is over a rope to make him climb in those directions.
Hold It!
It's wise to take a short break in every hour of play. If you find yourself partway through a level and would rather not turn off your Game Boy, why not put the action on hold?
•
Press the Start Button during play to freeze the action. The word 'PAUSED!' will replace Aladdin's Health to show that the action is frozen.
•
Press the Start Button when the action is frozen to resume play.
•
Press and hold the A Button, B Button, Start Button and Select Button at any time during play to reset Aladdin (note that this does not work on the Super Game Boy).
The Magical World of Aladdin
Below is a brief guide to what's found in each of the 9 exciting levels.
The Agrabah Street
The Sultan's armed Guards are in force in the area. Don't step on the leading to Jafar's quarters. Stop Iago at all costs and free Abu!
Jafar's Palace
The end is almost in sight, but are you careful enough to cross the booby-trapped floors? And skillful enough to beat the Palace Guards? Come on — you can do it!
The Genie's Bonus Machine
The Genie's Bonus Machine is a simple game of chance through which prizes can be won — but you only get one turn for every Genie Token collected during play. The prizes are shown (very quickly) in the Genie's mouth.
You can win a Gem, 5 apples or an extra Aladdin character, but if Jafar's head is chosen you lose any remaining Genie Tokens you hold.
•
Press the A or B Button to select a prize.
Using Wishes
Before you can use Wishes, you have to buy them from the Peddler. These Wishes have one function: you can continue playing from the start of the level in which your last Aladdin character was lost — instead of starting over at the very beginning!
The Peddler
He sells Special Items from his stall, which he opens up especially for Aladdin. But the Peddler will only accept Gems in exchange for Special Items, so make sure you have enough!
An extra Aladdin character is priced at 5 Gems, and a Wish costs 10 Gems.
Controls
Control Pad left or right
make Aladdin run in those directions
A Button
make Aladdin jump straight up (when not moving left or right)
Control Pad left or right while Aladdin is in the air
make him move in those directions
Control Pad left or right and then A Button

Items & Weapons
APPLES
There are plenty of them dotted around so you can keep Aladdin well-stocked.
FLUTES
The snake charmers' instruments activate Magic Ropes. Look for musical notes leading to the Flutes.
HEARTS
They boost Aladdin's health.
ALADDIN HEAD
An extra Aladdin character is yours.
GEMS
These sparkling stones are used to buy extra Aladdin characters and Wishes from the Peddler.
GENIE TOKEN
Your chance to use the Genie's Bonus Machine once a level is completed. The more Tokens you collect, the more chances of using the Machine you have.
BLACK LAMP
It explodes and removes from play any adversaries seen on screen.
VASE
A special marker. When Aladdin touches one of these, it spins and his position in the level is noted. Now, if an Aladdin character is lost and others remain, play will resume not from the beginning of the level but the last Vase touched!
SCARAB PIECES
Find two of these to make up a whole Scarab Beetle and access the Cave Of Wonders.
THE LAMP
It's found in the Cave Of Wonders and has magical powers - so don't let Jafar get his miserable hands on it.
Tips & Maps
FLAGPOLES
Some flagpoles are gleaming; jump on one to propel Aladdin to new heights.
MAGIC ROPES
These ropes float and fly high when Aladdin holds on, but are only activated when he picks up a Flute. Jump on or off them like normal ropes.
CLOTHESLINES
Aladdin can swing hand-over-hand along clotheslines by moving in the appropriate direction, and can let go by jumping. Other scenery pieces behave similarly.
Agrabah Street strategy
Try to entice the Sultan's Guards to walk on the hot coals in Agrabah Street.
Knife Juggler strategy
Timing is crucial when throwing apples at the Knife Juggler.
Camel jump
Jump on the Camels' backs for a little extra height.
Palm tree items
Sometimes more than coconuts are found in the tops of the palm trees.
Gazeem the Thief
On the Agrabah Rooftops, Gazeem the Thief holds an item of interest if you can find him.
Leaping over adversaries
It's sometimes easier to leap over adversaries instead of confronting them.
Taking your time
There's no clock, so take your time completing levels as you may find items of interest where you least expect them.
