About the Game
Based on characters from the MerTales book series, MerTales: Mermaid Rescue is a gentle RPG that encourages gamers to use problem solving skills to move through 3 unique mazes. Gamers play as 9-year-old mermaid Pearl Periwinkle, making their way through the undersea village of Cockleshell Cove in order to find Pearl’s missing seahorse, Silverdust.
Using her magical ability of talking to animals, Pearl must help out different sea animals like piratefish, dolphins, sea turtles and more to solve riddles, gather objects and collect keys to pass through gates.
