The game runs in a DOS emulator: keyboard and mouse work like on an old PC, each game has its own layout (see the hints in the game). There are no on-screen buttons on a phone.

First click the game screen once: after that the keys go to the game, not the page. To scroll the page again, click outside the game window. If the game does not respond, click the game screen again.

The game runs from the Internet Archive site in their emulator; there are no game files on our servers. We show it so you can get to know it; the rights to the game belong to the rights holders. The built-in player has no volume control: if there is no sound or you need to adjust it, open the game page on Internet Archive, which has sound and full-screen buttons.

The player can travel to various ports on the east and west coast of North America. While at sea, the player encounters shark swarms. Sharks are hunted from a side view via harpoon gun, rifle, or via scuba diving, and by killing and collecting deceased sharks, the player can sell their remains at the general store for money. The player also receives tasks from the mayor, and can purchase expensive boat upgrades at the harbor shop. There is a practice mode, where the player can practice the different forms of combat with sharks at a variety of skill levels to hone their shark hunting.
