Disney's Aladdin is mainly a side-scrolling 2D action platformer. Players are in control of Aladdin as he journeys through different worlds, battling enemies, jumping between platforms, avoiding obstacles, and collecting items. Movement is about running, jumping, climbing and combat. Thanks to his sword, Aladdin can attack enemies as well as clear the way through dangerous places. There are many different hazards in the levels. There are fire pits, enemy guards, sharp objects, gaps and more that players will have to time just right. Platforming is especially important. Aladdin must jump from platform to platform, climb ropes, jump from flagpoles and swing from clotheslines to get to different parts of the stages. The game also features different environments that change the look and challenges of the adventure. The Agrabah Market is more urban while the Desert has the most open space and different enemies. The Sultan's Dungeon provides a darker environment with more traps and hazards. More dangerous obstacles are introduced in later sections such as the Cave of Wonders. One of the fun aspects of the game is its funny animation. Some enemies and environmental characters such as camels and guards playfully react. Players only get a certain amount of lives, so it’s important to keep unnecessary damage to a minimum. If you run out of all your lives, you lose the game. There are also bonus areas in the game for additional gameplay.
