Aladdin

When the music comes on, you will want to sign along 

Game no: 269

Genre: Platformer

Platform: SNES

 

Difficulty: Moderate

What is it about: It follows the hit movie Aladdin with a few different things that is not in the movie 

What's great:

Platforming is spot on.

Use apples to hit the bad guys

The cut scenes are a nice break after a long stage

The genie's lamp is very challenging

The final boss is great

Collecting gems will earn you an extra heart

What's not so great:

You don't use your feet like traditional platformer, instead you will use your hands every time he lands. This will cause awkward landings due to the fact you are making a 360 degree turn. Even you kill the boss by doing a handstand on their head.

Gameplay is quite slow means that enemies are not rushing at you. The magic carpet ride is also slow

Music: Catchy. A whole new world and a lot of new music 

Status: Finish the game until the end credits

Should you play this game: Yes. The SNES version is a different experience from the Genesis version which I will go onto next
