Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King

SCORE: 73

Were you able to catch the live stream I performed of Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King? If not you can check it out in the videos section of our website. We are also uploading VODs of live streams onto our video sites. I played Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King on the Xbox One. Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King can also be found on the Nintendo Switch, PC, and PS4. Families will find multiple versions of the 16-bit Aladdin and The Lion King games on Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King.

My experience with these games was not positive. I do appreciate the ability to watch someone else play these games. I am not big on going to the previous menu and watching them play from the very start of the game. It would be better to be able to see the gameplay from level two, three, etc. Like some of the Mario games have done. Where you can watch Luigi play whatever level you happen to be in at the time.

The difficulty of these games are up there. I hate how we have to duck and swing the sword to survive in Aladdin. That gets old really quick. That is the best way to avoid hits in this game. Expect a lot of cheap hits in Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King. I also had issues figuring out where to go in the end of the first level in The Lion King. I noticed most of the hand held versions of these games are similar but look and play worse.

Some of the animation in these 16-bit video games looks good to this day. I can see why my dad fondly remembers the graphics and music from Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King. Too bad the gameplay was not better. I normally like challenging video games. I like them to have less cheap hits than Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King does. That is the big lesson for me personally.

I wish the hand held versions of games within Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King were different than the home console versions. Why do we need the same game, scaled down, and looking way worse? That still confuddles me. I like the Museum mode and the rewind function in Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King. I hope to see more compilations like Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King in the future. Oh and Jungle Book is paid DLC in Disney Classic Games Aladdin and The Lion King.
