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.
