Aladdin’s Castle: Ward Parkway Mall

Aladdin’s Castle was a popular video arcade located within the Ward Parkway Mall. As a fixture for many Kansas City youth, it was a memorable destination for entertainment and social gatherings from the 1970s through the 1990s. The arcade featured a wide array of classic and contemporary games of the era, operating with its own token system instead of quarters. This location, part of a larger nationwide chain, has since permanently closed and no longer operates within the mall.
