- For the 1993 Sega Mega Drive game by Virgin Games, see Disney's Aladdin.
Disney's Aladdin (アラジン) is a Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear action platform game developed by SIMS and published by Sega. Based on the titular 1992 film Aladdin, it was first released in Europe in February 1994[9], and is most notable for both its relative faithfulness to its source material and its extensive use of vivid color palettes and advanced graphical effects.

Stages 5 and 7 are flight stages, where Aladdin must fly the carpet while avoiding enemies, hazards, and getting caught against the walls.
