Capturing the spirit of the classic ‘80s arcade game hit, Popeye lets players relive his perennial quest to win back his sweetie, Olive Oyl, while overcoming the antics of his rival, Bluto. Players help Popeye win her back by collecting Olive's love tokens in this mobile optimized update to the popular arcade classic. Collect the hearts, musical notes and cries of "H-E-L-P" that a captured Olive tosses down to collect bonus points, while avoiding the Sea Hag's thrown bottles, Bluto's punches and other dangers.
