POPEYE IPHONE GAMEPLAY


Game History:
Popeye is a 1982 arcade game developed by Nintendo and released by Nintendo based on the Popeye comic/cartoon characters licensed from King Features Syndicate. The object of the game was for Popeye to collect a certain number of items (24 hearts, 16 musical notes, the letters in the word "help" - depending on the level) while avoiding The Sea Hag, Brutus/Bluto (Brutus was the character's name in the King Features shorts, not Bluto), and other dangers.

THE ORIGINAL MACHO MAN
Olive Oyl is your one true love, but it takes more than spinach power to win her affections—and her hand in marriage. The suiters fly at you with everything they have. You’re going fo have to climb ladders and take other precarious avenues to reach the object of your desire.

GAME PLAY: As Popeye you’re going to have to battle jealous foes through three increasingly hazardous levels to win Olive Oyl’s heart. You have to catch the hearts, musical notes, and letters she throws. Could they be love letters— only if you can defeat the dastardly suitors Brutus, Bernard (who flies into rages easily), and Seahag. You have to keep all the tokens of Olive's affection afloat, and you get to move to higher ground. Pluck Bernard's feathers or dump Brutus on your way. The higher you go, the tougher it gets. It takes more than a can of spinach to fight to the finish and win the
“goyl of your dreams.”
