IGN placed the SNES version 60th on their Top 100 SNES Games of All Time commenting that the game "faithfully the film's over-the-top magic into magical 16-bit form". Avi Fryman of GameSpy called the port of Disney's Aladdin "the most monumentally disappointing" of all the ports from SNES to GBA. Shinji Mikami, the game's designer, said that if he had not made the SNES game, he "would probably buy" the Virgin game because it has a sword and better animation. Aladdin proved to be a commercial success, selling approximately 1.8 million copies worldwide, becoming Capcom's highest-selling game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System after Street Fighter II and its various versions. A ScrewAttack reviewer also gave the game a positive review, saying that it was one of the best SNES games. Pedro Hernandez of Nintendo World Report gave the game a positive review, saying that "Capcom truly did something great with this Super NES game". GameFan 's four reviewers scored it 90%, 89%, 87% and 90%. They commented that the graphics, animation, music and gameplay are all outstanding. Įlectronic Gaming Monthly 's four reviewers scored the Super NES version 8, 8, 9 and 8 out of 10, adding up to 33 out of 40 (average 8.25 out of 10). In the United Kingdom, Aladdin was the top-selling SNES game in December 1993. Stages 1, 6 and 7 have a boss to defeat, stage 7 being the final stage stages 2, 3, 4 and 5 require reaching the end to complete. While in the Cave of Wonders the player must traverse up and down to avoid dangerous obstacles while outrunning waves of lava, the ride with Jasmine is a free-flying bonus stage (between stages 5 and 6) in which the player can collect gems the bonus stage ends when the melody to " A Whole New World" ends. The escape from the Cave of Wonders and the carpet ride with Princess Jasmine are both stages in which the player rides the Magic Carpet through self-scrolling stages. These can be increased through pickups or through the bonus stages as well. Aladdin has a health meter of hearts, starting with 3, which will deplete each time he is hit. Most stages contain a treasure chest holding a scarab that flies about for a few seconds, if the player collects it before it disappears they will access a bonus stage in which they spin a wheel that allows Genie to grant them extra lives and other special bonuses. Gems can be collected to gain extra lives and points, and 10 red gems located within each stage will substantially increase the player's score. Within each stage, Aladdin defeats foes by jumping on them or disorienting them by throwing apples while avoiding dangerous obstacles. Disney's Aladdin is a side-scrolling platform game in which the player controls the eponymous main character through several stages taking place throughout the city of Agrabah.
