Aladdin’s Castle: Lincoln Mall

Aladdin’s Castle was a popular video arcade located within the Lincoln Mall in Matteson, Illinois. For many years, it served as a go-to destination for gaming for local youth and mall patrons. The arcade operated within the mall, which opened in 1973 and was once a major suburban shopping hub. This location ceased operations when the interior of the Lincoln Mall was permanently closed to the public on January 7, 2015, due to extensive safety and maintenance issues. The entire mall structure was later demolished in 2017.
