Play Little Mermaid Online

Game Overview

Okay, so The Little Mermaid on Game Boy is way more fun than I expected. You’re basically Ariel, swimming through these bright, bubbly levels—dodging jellyfish, flipping shells at crabs, and finding little hidden caves with treasure. The controls feel surprisingly smooth for an old handheld game, and that underwater movement? Weirdly satisfying once you get the hang of it.

It’s not super long—you could probably finish it in an afternoon—but that’s kind of the charm. No grinding, no convoluted puzzles, just pure Disney vibes with a soundtrack that’ll stick in your head. I kept getting distracted by the backgrounds, too—they nailed that sunlit ocean shimmer. If you’ve got a soft spot for retro Disney games or just want something cheerful, this one’s a solid pick.
