Disney's Aladdin in Nasira's Revenge is a video game based on Aladdin, developed for the Sony PlayStation and PC by Argonaut Games and distributed by Disney Interactive in 2000.

Plot[]
The game is set after the events of The Return of Jafar, but before the events of the television series and Aladdin and the King of Thieves.
The legendary city of Agrabah is in trouble again: the evil sorceress Nasira (Jodi Benson) is out to avenge the death of her brother, the nefarious sorcerer Jafar (Jonathan Freeman). She begins her vengeful plot by taking over the palace with a spell and kidnapping Princess Jasmine (Linda Larkin) and the Sultan; she then commands the guard's captain Razoul (Jim Cummings) to bring Aladdin (Scott Weinger) to her. The treacherous Nasira believes that if she collects a set of ancient relics that are spread all over Agrabah she might be able to revive Jafar and take over the world, and so she uses her captives to force Aladdin into doing this job for her. The story is told in the cut-scenes using the game engine.

Gameplay[]
The player assumes control of three total characters in the game: Aladdin, Abu, and Jasmine. Aladdin's abilities range from sword fighting to jumping to stomping. Abu can jump, roll, and climb on walls to a certain degree. Jasmine's character is hiding in a pot for her level therefore the player can hide and hop. The player collects gold coins throughout each level and fights a variety of villains. The game's environments vary greatly and allow much interaction. There are minigames at the end of each level: pie throwing, surfing, skateboarding, and cloud jumping.
Levels[]
- Agrabah: Something terrible has happened at the Sultan’s Palace and Aladdin must get there right away. Unfortunately there are wanted posters with his name on it and guards hot on his tail. With the help of Genie and Abu, Aladdin navigates the streets of Agrabah.
- The Palace: The Sultan’s palace has been taken over by Nasira and her enchanted guards. Aladdin needs to make his way to the throne room to confront the sorceress and find out what has happened to the Sultan and Princess Jasmine.
- The Dungeon: Aladdin has been imprisoned in the dungeon and it is up to Abu to rescue him. Using his agility and skill, Abu has to dodge guards and booby traps in order to set Aladdin free.
- The Oasis: Aladdin follows the advice of a mystic to once again seek out the Cave of Wonders. First, he must find the lost scarab, key to the Cave’s entrance.
- The Cave of Wonders: A vast desert soon will unveil the mythical Cave of Wonders to Aladdin and Abu, who follow paths of gold and gems in search of the banished Genie. They then escape on Carpet before the cave collapses.
- The Pyramid: Aladdin’s quest to rescue his friends leads him to the ancient pyramids. First, he has to find the Book of the Dead to gain entry. Inside the dark tombs Aladdin must contend with mummies, snakes, Sphinx guards, while uncovering mechanical puzzles to make his way through the labyrinth of hallways. Aladdin braves the dangers to rescue Jasmine.
- The Crumbled Palace (The Crumbling Place/Crumbe of Palace): Jasmine returns to find the beloved palace in shambles and ruins after the tyrannical Nasira passed through it. With only a pot to hide in from the witch's henchmen, Jasmine sneaks through the darkness of the palace to retrieve a vital road map for Aladdin to lead him onwards to the legendary Ancient City.
- The Ancient City (Ancient City): Aladdin runs at top speed along a mountainous cliff wall upwards towards an ancient, forgotten city searching for Nasira's secret lair. He enters a city in decay at night, populated by thieves and living skeletons.
- Nasira's Lair: The final battle between good and evil begins as Aladdin descends into the fiery depths of the volcano pit where Nasira prepares to bring back Jafar from the Underworld.
The game also contains mini games at the end of each level—pie throwing, surfing, skate-boarding, and cloud jumping.
Trivia[]
- The level The Ancient City seems to be located in India, what with the prescence of Kali statues.
- The lair of Nasira in Nasira's Lair confirms this by the presence of Nagas as enemies.
- Some pink cushions and the walking brooms from Fantasia appear as enemies in 'Sultan's Palace' stage.
- Two of the mooks from the Oasis stage are the Behrang|fat bandit and the dual-wielding scimitar-having slim bandit from Aladdin and the King of Thieves.
- Rock golems and lava golems are present as invincible enemies in 'Ancient City 2' and Nasira's Lair respectively.
- The Arachnid, the boss of the Oasis, guards the scarab beetle artifact needed to enter the Cave of Wonders, but isn't confirmed to be affiliated with Nasira.
- Other than Aladdin's flying carpet, other flying carpets are present as platforms in 'Agrabah 3'.
- There is a ominous pipe organ present in 'Ancient City 3' where the solution is to copy their tune by stepping on the keys.
- Minotaurs are present in the Pyramid levels as stationary guards.
- Straying too far away from the scarab in the level 'Cave of Wonders 1' will result in you getting instantly killed by a giant sand worm.
- Naga-type enemies are found in Nasira's lair that can poison you.
- Abu still thinks it's a good idea to grab a ruby in the Cave of Wonders. You'd think he would have learned after what happened when he did the same thing in the original movie.
- Razoul who is the head guard in the palace, is depicted in this game as having white skin while other iterations of him have tan skin. Possibly justified as the other brainwashed guards have white skin as a side effect.
- Razoul's post-fight dialogue implies that Nasira brainwashed him and the other palace guards somehow.
