How Aladdin Plays
Gems can be collected to gain extra lives and points, and ten red gems located within each stage will substantially increase the player's score. 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. The game ends when the player runs out of lives, although the player can continue playing from the current level as long as they have continues remaining.
Aladdin has a health meter of hearts, starting with 3, which will deplete each time he is hit. 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. These can be increased through pickups or through the bonus stages as well.
