Developed by Nexa and published by SEGA, Aladdin arrived on the Sega Master System in 1994 as a platformer.

It landed about 8 years into the Master System's life. Other notable Master System releases from 1994 include FIFA International Soccer, Asterix and the Great Rescue and Championship Hockey.

It is part of the Aladdin series. The series also appears on other systems with Disney's Aladdin (NES) and Disney's Aladdin (GBC). Nexa also made Monopoly for the Master System.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to run, jump and explore
  • you have time for an evening or two (roughly 1–6 hours to see it through)
  • you've played the Master System hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you get frustrated by precise jumps and limited lives
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Aladdin is like

Platformers are all about movement: running, jumping and timing your way across levels full of gaps, enemies and secrets. The best ones feel great to control within seconds and then slowly teach you to master every leap.

Tip for newcomers: Retro platformers often have limited lives and few checkpoints. Learn one level at a time, look for hidden 1-ups, and don't be shy about using a save feature when it is available.
