This board has a fairly easy wizard mode to reach and complete but some fiendishly evil slingshots and outlanes! To complete the board, you've got to go through all the Tales of the Arabian Nights which mostly consist of hitting the same targets and ramps in a manner of ways, but... you can skip a tale simply by making a wish on the lamp which is activated by spinning the lamp 15 times and going into the bazaar during a Lightning Lamp round.

After completing all the tales, you must defeat the genie in the Wizard Mode. Here you beat his skeletons by going up ramps and targets as per usual, and then.... you have an UNLIMITED MULTIBALL in a tug of war of sorts against him. They seem to go out of their way to make the board seem easy, but it is INCREDIBLY unforgiving with ricochets and bounces along the sides. It all evens out in the end!

The hardest shot on the board, in my opinion, is the left loop. I had to go that way during the Rocs tale. I also mistakingly thought I had to keep going up there but you only need hit one bumper to open the ramp to clear it. Also, the hole in front of the genie was misbehaving quite a bit this game. The ball should easily fall in it for multiball and "Rescue the Princess" but it kept bouncing around. Oh well~

Also this board has what may be my favorite "End of Ball Bonus" sequence. Gotta dig that sitar!
