Aladdin II

About

Aladdin II is a platform game that follows the hero’s quest to outwit villains and navigate shifting landscapes. It mirrors the SNES version’s side-scrolling mechanics but adjusts for the Mega Drive’s hardware. Players leap between moving platforms, dodge obstacles, and use basic attacks to progress. The controls feel tight but lack the polish of licensed releases. The level design leans heavily on the original’s structure with minor tweaks. The game’s unlicensed status and murky origins make it a niche oddity. Developed possibly by former Chuanpu staff, it contrasts sharply with Virgin’s Aladdin 2000 port. While not widely celebrated, it holds a small following among retro enthusiasts. Its 1997 release date and X Boy’s involvement mark it as a curio in Sega’s library. Fans of obscure ports might find it worth a look, though its lack of official recognition shows.
