Maneater is a single player game set in some open waters. Players will get to explore areas, take out other aquatic predators, and try to survive with the Manâ„¢ hunting him down at every turn. It's billed as an action-RPG or ShARkPG as it were. You will grow and mutate your shark as you level up, allowing you to customize your shark to fit your particular play style.
