Hungry Shark Evolution Review by: zanderlex - 8.2/10
Boy Am I HungryOh my gawd, this game is really a lot of fun. I was going through all of the free ones looking for something to play and I decided to give this one a shot and it really blew me away. This game is all about swimming around a little area as a shark and eating as much as you can and I never figured that a game like this could be so much fun to play.
GRAPHICS 8/10
I will have to say that the graphics are fairly good. The entire game takes place under the water so you would think that there wouldn't be much to see, but what there is could end up surprising you. The game does have a ton if detail, whether its the fish and humans, the area that you are playing in, or the background. Its really colorful and its pretty good for a mobile game so my grade for graphics will be an 8 out of 10.
SOUND 5/10
The sounds of the game are okay at best. There's some music and there's a couple various sounds that will play throughout the game but that's really just about it. There are the sounds that play when you eat something, when you are hurt, and such but there isn't really enough in my opinion so my grade will be a 5 out of 10.
ADDICTIVENESS 9/10
The game can be really addicting because the topic is actually quite fun, you get to control a shark and you go around eating other fish, swimming up to attack swimmers, and searching for all sorts of buried treasure while racking up points and various bonuses. That's all there is to it, but something about that makes the game so much fun to play. On top of all that you get to use different sharks later on and you get to grow your sharks as well. Who doesn't want to do that? Not that many people would say this game isn't fun so my grade for this aspect is going to be a 9 out of 10.
STORY N/A
I pretty much gave away the entire outline of the game already, and there doesn't really seem to be much of a story based on all the things that you can do in the game. In terms of a story, I would have to say that its a lot like some of those runner games, in this one your only real objectives are to score as many points as you can and also stay alive for as long as you can. There are a few other things that you have to find throughout the area but that's about it, there's no real story.
DEPTH 7/10
The game has depth, that's for sure, but it doesn't really have a lot of it. I haven't played the game a lot so I haven't seen every little secret that there is to be found, but I've seen enough to say that there's a good amount of depth. First off you have the map, the area that you start off with is relatively big, but you can also unlock more areas as you play the game. Next you have the amount of sharks, you start off with a reef shark and then you can eventually get to control more sharks by either leveling up your current one or scoring enough points in one round. There are a bunch of objectives for you to work your way through, treasure to be found, and upgrades to be bought. That's pretty much everything there is to the depth and my grade for this aspect will be a 7 out of 10.
DIFFICULTY 3
The game is extremely easy, the only way for the game to be hard is if you find yourself in a really unlucky position and can't find anything to eat, and if that happens, you die. But other than that, the game is so easy, all you are doing is swimming around and looking for food. From what I have seen, I believe there are at least 3 different types of fish that can hurt you but if you see that you are near one of them, its really easy to avoid them. The controls are kind of easy, all you need to do is touch the screen and the. Slide your finger along the screen in the direction you want the shark to move. Of course, there will be times where the screen wants to be a jerk and it might end up taking some time to get the shark moving the way you want it to, but with time you will get used to the way that the game works. I think the game is easy so my grade for difficulty is going to be a 3.
OVERALL 8.2/10
Overall, I think this game is a lot of fun. The first time I played it, I played one round for a couple of minutes and didn't really like the game to start off with but then as I played that round a bit more I saw what the game had to offer and I fell in love with it. Its really fun and I think that it has a lot of potential so my overall grade for this game is going to be an 8.2 out of 10. Its not one of the best mobile games overall, but it sure can keep you occupied for a while.
