A Licensed Game based on the Disney animated movie The Little Mermaid (1989).

The player can also recruit the assistance of Sebastian, the crab, and Flounder, the fish, as well as an original piscine character, the digger fish.Not to be confused with The Little Mermaid, released in 1991 on the Nintendo Entertainment System and in 1993 on the Game Boy. |

Papa Wolf: Even if the game does not have cutscenes to expand on the story, if the player chooses King Triton as their character, then the gameplay is about the king of the seas fighting his way through the ocean to rescue his daughter Ariel from the clutches of a powerful Sea Witch. |
