Disney Dreamlight Valley: Good as Gold quest guide

If you’re familiar with Aladdin in Disney Dreamlight Valley and his movies, you’ll know he has a history of thievery to survive. Although our Valley village is safe, Scrooge McDuck plans to install a store security system and recruits you and Aladdin to test it during the Good as Gold quest.

Good as Gold quest walkthrough

You’ll begin the Good as Gold quest after reaching level two friendship with Aladdin and introducing Jasmine to your village. He’ll tell you that Scrooge McDuck recently installed a security system in his shop and recruited Aladdin to test it. What better way to do this than to try robbing the store? Aladdin asks you to join him, prompting you to begin Disney Dreamlight Valley’s first-ever stealth mission.

Talk to Scrooge McDuck

Before you jump into Scrooge McDuck’s store and rob it blind, you’ll first need to talk to him about the situation. He’ll tell you more about his security system, advising you to take pictures of his store. You’ll need to take photos of the following places:

• A door that guards more treasure than the Cave of Wonders.
• A way to reach the second floor of the shop.
• Ways to make quick escapes from guards.

In this case, you want to take pictures of yourself in front of the shop’s vault, stairs, and windows. You can quickly knock out this task if you can fit all three in just a few photos. Otherwise, get some fun angles before talking to Aladdin again.

Put on Sporty clothes

After talking to Aladdin about the plan, you’ll need to wear inconspicuous clothes to make it easier to sneak into the shop. The easiest way to do this is to open your Wardrove, filter by “Sporty” and “Black,” and equip a bunch of items from the list. You can also buy clothes from Scrooge if needed.

There’s also an optional objective to wait until it reaches 6 p.m. or later in your local time zone to complete the quest. While you’re not required to do this, my advice below will come from my experience playing this late at night.

Navigate Scrooge McDuck’s security system

Now that you have the right outfit on, you can press the big red button on Scrooge McDuck’s store wall to start the stealth mission. You and Aladdin will teleport to the top floor, where he will explain the mechanics and provide a tutorial detailing it further. For now, you can run straight forward and activate the button on the table to turn off some of the top-floor lights.

As you continue through these floors, you’ll have to run around and press each button to move and deactivate lights. Stepping into one teleports you to the beginning, so you want to be careful not to reset your progress.

Here’s every light you need to activate on the top floor of Scrooge McDuck’s store:

1. Press the middle table button during the first quest prompt.
2. Press the left table button to move a light to your right.
3. Turn 180 degrees and press the wall button to deactivate two lights.
4. Pass through the newly created gap and press the right-side button to turn off the center light.
5. Head back to the middle table button and press it.

After completing all five steps, you’ll have direct access to the bottom floor, giving you more lights to navigate. Fortunately, these are relatively straightforward, as detailed below:

1. Press the bottom floor button until the light moves in front of the door.
2. Activate the counter button to move the light toward the stairs.
3. Head to the store displays and press the button to deactivate the wall light.
4. Press the wall button to complete the system test.

Now that you’ve solved the security system’s testing phase, you’ll “break into” Scrooge McDuck’s vault, causing several magical flying coins to appear. Run around and catch them before talking to Aladdin about the experience.

Catch enchanted flying coins

When you walk outside Scrooge McDuck’s shop, you’ll quickly learn that the magic coins are now flying around Dreamlight Valley. They’ll mostly cluster in the Plaza and Peaceful Meadow, letting you stay in these areas and grab most of them. They go pretty fast, so having extra stamina for sprinting will help.

Once you catch all nine coins, return to Aladdin and take a picture of the gold pile the two of you gathered. Aladdin is so thrilled over the experience that he’ll run out to discuss it with Scrooge McDuck, letting them talk about the security system and our stellar performance. Listening to this conversation will wrap up Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Good as Gold quest, bringing you one step closer to completing Aladdin’s friendship missions.
