I thought this game was based on the Hall and Oates song, but sadly it wasn’t. Fortunately, the game is quite fun and it’s very easy to just play the song in the background on a separate device

I have only had a small amount of time to play this so far, but I am glad I purchased it. Very nice graphics and it is a very entertaining game to play. Definitely different too. I recommend this game to anyone who likes something different and wants to add it to their collection!

Repetitive but fun. If you grew up on the JAWS movies like I did, this is the game for you! Be the shark! Eat people! Fight other sharks and bosses! it's a solid B-Level game that is very simple but fun and has some good laughs. Worth getting on sale or Black Friday for under 20 bucks.

Do you like sharks?
Do you like mockumentaries?
Do you love Chris Parnell?
Then boy do I have the game for you. Imagine GTA, but you're a shark.
Okay, have that in your mind? That's it. That's the game. You either love it or hate it. (I love it)

This game is the most fun I've had in a while. It's as dumb as a bag of rocks but it's just so much fun. Who new we needed an open world shark simulator? Don't expect much from this title, its pretty simple, but its so satisfying destroying everything around you.

I put up about 30 hours plus with this game, got all my items upgrade, still can't beat the boss. If you love sharks and like to eat everything you see. This is a must-have game that will give you a lot of hours of fun and enjoyment.

This game is EXCELLENT! The graphics are incredible and so is the gameplay. It’s like GTA but in the water. This game came from out of nowhere and is a must have. Pristine graphics and super fast loading since the title is Xbox Series X enhanced.

Unique and decent open-world action title, with interesting RPG elements upgrading your shark's skills and features. The game takes some time to open up and appreciate the world. Buy it when discounted!

Incredibly underrated game. Quick story but enough to keep you happy. Mechanics and gameplay are fun. If you don't like killing or realize this is just a game then don't get this. If you like having stupid fun then it is a game for you.

this game is a ton of fun, now I'm not saying you can sit down and put a hundred hours into it, but if you want a break from serious and competitive gaming to just eat some people and destroy some stuff then I would definitely pick this up.

Good mindless violence in shark form. Gets a little repetitive at times. But the comic relief from the narrator keeps it interesting enough. Not a game for everyone but worth giving a chance if you rent it out catch it on good sale like i did.

I love aquatic games so this was a definite buy from me. Unfortunately it's launch was marred by glitches and bugs in the game that prevented it from getting good reviews.
However those bugs have now been patched out and the game runs as it was intended. And it's a blast!
You play a shark eating every animal in sight as you grow and eat larger and larger species. You can unlock power ups to speed up or help you with fighting boats. The whole game plays out like a documentary/reality tv series with running jokes and commentary by the narrator, Chris Parnell.
There's even a collect-a-thon aspect to it as you eat up license plates and uncover landmarks with hilarious commentary as you encounter each one.
This summer new (paid) DLC is coming with more content so you can look forward to that.

Recently picked this game up on the advice of my son. Great gameplay. Graphics look good. The map is pretty large and as the game progresses your shark will grow stronger and have more abilities. Enemies get tougher as well. Good fun.

Short game but fun, commentary is funny though gets repetative. If you're reading this, you know what the game is about and don't need to read the reviews. Controls were great, I never had any issues, never had any glitches. Played well.

It’s the shark rpg I never knew I wanted. Graphics and sound are top notch. Fun building up your shark and customizing it’s appearance. Definitely worth checking out if you want to eat some alligators, fish and swimmers!

Wish there were more games where you control animals. This brought back memories when i used to play eccho the dolphin. Its open world with gorgeous graphics and its optimized for next gen.

Personally I think this game is fantastic. It is a bit of a grind to level up but it is fun to just swim around chomping on a variety of animals and even the occasional beach goer!

This game is a lighthearted, fun romp through murky waters. Taking the concept of the classic game "Feeding Frenzy" and adding in skill trees and other RPG mechanics. Really fun and funny.

Ridiculous fun! It gets a bit repetitive but the concept was so fresh I didn't mind. Also, this has been enhanced for the Xbox Series X 4K60FPS. Lasts around 10 hours to finish the story
