The Genie of the Lamp (ランプの魔王), a.k.a Djinn, is a character introduced in Metal Slug 2/X.
Information[]
Found hidden at the end of a secret detour in Mission 2 is a box holding an ordinary lamp that rewards 10 points when collected. If the player waits after a few poofs of smoke, the Genie comes off from a magic lamp, then turns into multiple coins while laughing. Timed correctly and grabbing all the coins, this treasure is worth 61,430 points. A second lamp is found by shooting above the first one.
In Metal Slug X, a mummy poison jar is located above the first statue as a trap. Shooting the box with the Shotgun or Flame Shot can trigger an ambush of two Hunged Mummies from both sides.
In Other Games[]
Metal Slug Attack[]
The Genie acts as a visual indicator on all of the Mystery Cranks to indicate the values of the icons from the pull.
- MSP and Medal Cranks: Appears when the player rolls a full unit reward.
- Box Crank: Appears as normal whenever the player pulls a small amount of parts of the featured unit and as a golden form when the player pulls the main prize.
- Step Up Crank: Appears in a manner similar to that of the MSP/Medal crank, and will also appear on any 110x unit icon rewards rolled.
- Task Force Crank: Appears when the player pulls featured unit parts/items.
Metal Slug: Awakening[]
The Genie reprises his role as an item similar to Metal Slug 2/X. He also appears inside of the lamp to the left of Lambert in Andrew Town. The Genie hosts the Djinn Range, a shooting range where the player can practice their characters and weaponry onto him. He has the highest health at x99 health bars. However, he doesn't do anything but stand still and give encouragement. The player earns rewards based on the highest damage total in all runs.
Smaller genies known as Mini Djinns appear as enemies in the Djinn of Wealth area of the Arcade Carnival submode.

Trivia[]
- The Genie's laugh is the same as Morden's.
- Given his context, it would've made more sense if he appeared in the first mission, since he is based on a tale from 1001 Arabian Nights.
- His design and color scheme is based on the Genie from Disney's Aladdin.
