The Quest for Aladdin's Treasure
The Quest for Aladdins Treasure
Submitted on: 29 Apr 2009

Aladdins Treasure is one massive adventure, speed your way by magic carpet across the desert, venture on foot through ancient temples, collect treasure and much more!

The Quest for Aladdin’s Treasure is an action game in which you take up the role of Aladdin and go through a number of adventurous rounds with Genie, Aladdin’s great companion. In the game, you play as Aladdin, a hero, who is trying to rescue princess Jasmine from an evil foe named Jafar.

In this game, you need to solve a number of puzzles in order to proceed further and you need to use your intellect to solve these puzzles. In the starting, the game puts you in the caves where you need to make various pictures by sliding on the tiles and after winning this challenge, you move to other types of puzzles. You are left in the middle of the vast desert and you need to find each temple which can prove to be cumbersome as there is no map available in the game and everything looks similar. So, it can take some good amount of time to remember the caves which you have visited.

You may loose some interest in the game as well as there is no explanation in the game about the jewels, objectives of the puzzles, how to go through various caves and so, you need to guess all this on your own and you need to make your own way in order to proceed further. Adults may find the game simple enough but some children can lose some interest from the game as there are already a number of great games available in the market. Also, the game is a bit hard for children.

It is more or less a children’s game and the developers have incorporated primitive standard graphics for the game. Graphic wise, the game is not up to the mark when compared to the other games being released in the market. In the game, the landscapes are simple and primary colours have been used in the game. The music is clear and it is good enough to keep you involved in the game.

Also, it is very easy to make moves in the game as the developers have kept the controls simple. You are allowed to move up, down, left and right in the game and also, there are no camera controls in the game.

Although it’s a nice concept to develop a puzzle game on Aladdin but the game lacks something which is required to make a mark in the market which is already dominated by games like Shrek, SpongeBob and more. So, if you enjoy solving puzzles then you can buy this game but if you are looking for action with great graphics then this game might not be the best bet.
