DiveHunter, the new mobile game dedicated to spearfishing enthusiasts is now ready for you! Born from the idea of an estimator and fishing enthusiast, DiveHunter was conceived and created to be a full-fledged simulator, without neglecting the playful aspect, for a new and engaging entertainment. Test your marine hunting skills in total apnea! You have 30 to 40 seconds of oxygen available to prey on and catch your fish with your inseparable rifle: the more fish you capture the more seconds of time you gain. The game includes a game of 10 apneas during which you will go to total your catch between the various half fish and one kg of weight. Based on the fish catch speed and the total weight, the system will assign you a partial and total number of stars (for each apnea). Can you do more? No problem! You can try again and have fun with DiveHunter as many times as you want.
