Feared by many, a force of nature, the obsession of way too many screenwriters in Hollywood… That’s right, you got it: SHARKS! Sharks are the lions of the sea – they’re regal, astute and, above all, carnivores. It might be those big bulging eyes or the lack of a silky mane, but they’re actually waaaay scarier than their terrestrial counterparts. This is why we decided that YES, the world needs a sharklicious version of the Evolution saga (maybe we just want to see the world BURN)! It’s a new wave of entertainment! Why settle for an ordinary shark? Sharks are scary by nature but with a little help of Shark Evolution they can get EXTRA scary and you can create and develop many fishy shark species, just combine them to see them evolve! Have a sea of fun mixing, matching and combining these villains of the water world! FEATURES • Pantheon: a new place for supreme beings to look down on us mortals and laugh at our misery • Impostors: watch out for impostors trying to steal the spotlight from the sharks HOW TO PLAY • Drag and drop similar sharks to create new mysterious creatures • Use sharks poop coins to buy new creatures and make even more money • Alternatively, fiercely tap a shark to make coins pop when sharks poop HIGHLIGHTS • Different stages and many shark species to discover • A mind-blowing story yet untold • The unexpected mix of alpaca-like evolution, 2048 and incremental clicker games • Doodle-like illustrations • Various possible endings: find your destiny • No sharks were harmed in the making of this game, only developers Bait the hook and download Shark Evolution now!

THE RIGHT TO EDUCATION Education is a human right in itself and is essential for realising other human rights. In meeting the right to education, every child and young person should have access to a free and equitable education system. Unfortunately, my experience as a science teacher in New Zealand, is that our schools are failing to provide a equitable education system for some children. This is especially true for Indigenous students, neurodivergent students and students struggling with their mental health. MY GOAL My goal for creating this app was to try and provide a fun way to help any student struggling with high school biology to achieve success. I wanted to see if learning through gaming will help re-ignite your passion for biology and give you the motivation to overcome any struggles you face with the subject. NO ADS OR IN-APP PURCHASES IN GAME Since education is a human right, access to education should be completely free. Therefore, this game will have no ads or in-app purchases. It will be completely free to download and play LEARN BIOLOGY CONCEPTS This game will teach you the core biology concepts of respiration. Try it out and see if you can learn high school biology playing games. I would love to hear from you, so please get in touch with any feedback or ideas to improve my games https://runthroughbio.com
