Capital Mall, Jefferson City, MO scored its own Aladdin’s Castle in the late ’70s and, thanks to its mid‑state location, became a favored test site for new Bally/Namco hardware. Highway Games reported in 2003 that Bugeye Technologies’ Blaze TM shooter underwent market testing here—proof the castle was still influential decades after opening.
Local Flickr historian “Jeff City Family Fun” snapped photos of the turreted entrance in 2010; the suite closed soon after and lay dormant until reborn as Quik Play Arcade in 2024, whose owners boast they’re “bringing back the welcoming vibe Aladdin’s Castle once had.” HubBiz’s legacy listing preserves the 573‑area‑code phone line and categorizes the venue under amusement parks—small but telling breadcrumbs for future researchers.
