Sharks are often characterised as misunderstood, and undeserving of their gruesome reputation. All you need to do is watch the famous leaping great white snuff scene from David Attenborough's Planet Earth to see what utter tree-hugging poppycock this idea is. Sharks are killing machines, and nothing else.

Shark or Die is the latest release from HandyGames, and it allows you to assume the role of the great white as you go around terrorising unsuspecting bathers. You can plan and navigate your route in real-time to sneak up and chomp away at different types of swimmers, from super-cool surfer dudes to bikini babes, whilst avoiding lethal harpoons from hunters lurking above.

There are different scenarios to try out, killpoints to earn to train your killing machine, achievements to accumulate, and different abilities to learn as you traverse the open seas, leaving only a trail of crimson in your wake.

Though perhaps the most interesting aspect about Shark or Die appears to be the ‘Pimp My Shark’ feature.

Shark or Die is available on mobile now.
