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.

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!
