map of the reef & Sea Slide
After Ariel repairs the Sea Slide, she’ll be able to scoot to any part of the reef in no time at all. To use the Sea Slide, press SELECT to open the
map or tap the map icon on the lower left corner of the touch screen. The top screen shows the entire Reef and the touch screen shows three Slide stations. Ariel’s current location is shown on the map, as are missions that are not yet open. Press +Control Pad Left/Right or use your stylus to scroll through the destinations in the system. Tap the highlighted destination with the stylus, or press the A Button when it’s highlighted, to
send Ariel sliding through the chute. In a few seconds she will arrive at the chosen
location. Keep your eye open for
Tiger Shells as you go! Tap them with the stylus to add them to your collection.
Adventure Screen
If you need a reminder about who Ariel is helping now – or what she needs to do to help – tap the X Button to open the Adventure Screen and see a list of active missions. If you need more information about a mission, tap it with the stylus and pay attention to what Sebastian has to say!
Dangerous Waters
Some of the waters undersea are dangerous
–too dangerous for Ariel to swim through freely. In these regions Ariel flits from hideout to hideout, hoping to get through unnoticed.
To cross these areas, use the stylus to select a hiding place. If you’ve chosen a good spot, she’ll dash right over and stay out of sight. Keep a lookout for sharks and other, even more dangerous, sea creatures. If Ariel spends too long out in the open, she’s sure to be noticed.
You can still collect any treasures you may find laying about by tapping them with your stylus.
