🎮 What is Mermaid Adventures: The Frozen Time

Mermaid Adventures: The Frozen Time is a match‑3 / casual puzzle + adventure game with an underwater / mermaid / oceanic theme. (Steam Store)
The story centers around a mermaid (named Alice) and her friends — the underwater kingdom is thrown into chaos by an evil octopus and its servants, who cause problems and “freeze time.” It’s up to Alice (and allies) to restore order, wake her friends, and return peace to the ocean world. (Steam Store)
The game mixes several gameplay styles — not just match‑3, but also light puzzles, hidden‑object scenes, memory rounds (and possibly other mini‑game types), giving some variety beyond classic gem‑matching. (GameTop.com)

There are around 80 unique levels, each with its own layout or challenge. (GameTop.com)
The core levels use match‑3 mechanics: you swap tiles / gems / underwater-themed items to match 3 (or more) and clear the board / achieve level goals. (GameTop.com)
Between or alongside match‑3 stages, the game includes different kinds of mini‑games: hidden‑object scenes, puzzle segments, and memory‑type levels — which helps keep gameplay more varied and breaks monotony. (GameTop.com)
The game has hand‑drawn / stylized 2D graphics, an underwater / ocean aesthetic, and a soundtrack / audio design that fits the relaxed‑yet‑fantasy vibe of a mermaid adventure. (Steambase)
System / performance wise — the requirements are modest: it can run on older or modest PCs (512 MB RAM, ~80 MB storage, basic CPU) which makes it accessible. (PCGameBenchmark)

Casual and accessible: Because of simple mechanics and low system requirements, the game is suitable even for players with older PCs or who prefer light gaming sessions.
Varied gameplay: The mix of match‑3, puzzles, hidden‑object & memory rounds adds diversity — less repetition compared to pure match‑3 games.
Nice aesthetic & atmosphere: The underwater / mermaid theme, stylized 2D art, and ocean‑kingdom story give the game some charm and thematic consistency.
Good for short / relaxed sessions: Levels are modest in size; you can enjoy a few rounds without needing to commit long hours or learn complex mechanics.

The core gameplay is still casual / light — so if you expect deep RPG mechanics, complex puzzles or rich story, it may feel limited.
According to user reviews (on Steam), some of the level mechanics and mini‑games (especially beyond simple match‑3) have been criticized: issues with puzzle/balance, or that certain mechanics feel messy or “frustrating rather than fun.” (Steam Community)
The player base seems small and the community limited (concurrent players on Steam are often very low), so you shouldn’t expect a large online community or much ongoing support. (Steambase)
