This is a really fun app. The story? You're a shark fighting his way up the food chain, who eats anything and everything to get bigger and bigger. And bigger. You can choose to play either by the tilting the screen or by dragging the shark along but I find the tilt option (which can be recalibrated in-game, if desired) much easier. Hungry Shark 2 also comes with Hungry Shark 1 included.
The graphics are really good so if you fancy swimming in tropical seas, Atlantic abysses or the frozen Antarctic but don't like the idea of getting wet, this is a game for you. The satisfying screams when you eat a human or chomp your way through shoals of fish add to the already stunning visuals of the game. Just watch out for the sea-mines, they don't taste too good.
I got this App free in the build up to Hungry Shark 3 and I'd say that its only downfall is the differences between Hungry Shark 1,2 and 3 aren't glaringly obvious. The games get bigger and stocked full of more enemies but that's about it. Despite the hours of entertainment I've had on Hungry Shark 2 I don't think I'd buy HS3 unless it came up as a free download. My only wonder is where they will take the Hungry Shark franchise next?
Overall, I'd say this game is a winner and is definitely worth the £0.59 asking price, although Hungry Shark 3 would probably be a better purchase now it's out. While it can get a little repetitive it's also incredibly addictive and you won't be able to stop yourself chowing down on scuba-divers and fisherman from now on.
Rating - 4.5 out of 5
