Aladidin gameboy color gameplay
The game was released by Sega for the Sega Genesis on November 11, 1993. The game is one of the best-selling Genesis games with four million copies sold. It also received a number of adapted ports for other platforms, such as the NES, Game Boy, Amiga, and DOS computers. Genie's Bonus Machine is a luck-based minigame in which pressing a button rewards the player with a random prize consisting of a gem, five apples or an extra life. If the player picks up an Abu Token in two levels, a bonus level featuring Aladdin's pet monkey Abu will initiate. The budget for the game's launch was $250,000 by Jeffrey Katzenberg. The Amiga and DOS ports were based on the Mega Drive/Genesis version. A Windows 95 port was developed by East Point Software and published by Virgin Interactive Entertainment in 1997. A Sega CD version of Aladdin was planned, but never started official development.
