Description

You control Popeye the sailor man in one of three different stages. Stage 1, you collect hearts to win Olive's love. Stage 2, you collect notes to serenade Olive and Sweet Pea. Stage 3, Olive has been captured and you must catch her cries for help to rescue her. Bluto is a constant nemesis. He throws bottles at you. He can hit you from above or bellow. Grab the spinach and you can go after Bluto and show him who's boss! The game repeats the same three stages with increasing difficulty, including sea hags and bouncing skulls.
