Each sibling, with the help of their own faithful Smees, navigates through troubled waters and playful characters in their mapped quest. The cheering mermaid beauties, ghoulish lost souls, and gaming pirates all hold the key to the siblings’ success requiring trickery, bargaining and battling, something pirates are known for.
