About this game

Game based on the movie "Jaws". A rare example of how not a very good film can make an excellent game. Our hero is a professional shark hunter who recently has become simply gigantic in size and is terrorizing the beaches of the United States and Mexico on both the Atlantic and Pacific coast. Our task is to kill sharks. We do this on the instructions of the island’s mayor, who is even willing to pay us. Money in the game is important as it will help buying new equipment (boat and weapons). Initially, we only have eight thousand dollars and a small boat, there is no equipment at all. Throughout the game we will have to visit many ports, because our services will become popular.
