Play Alive Sharks Online
You're floating in dark water with just a harpoon, watching shark shadows circle before they suddenly charge—miss one shot and you're chum. The deeper you go, the harder it gets to spot them coming.
Game Overview
Ever wanted to be the guy in those old shark attack movies—except this time, you actually get to fight back? Alive Sharks on MS-DOS is basically that. You're dumped into this murky blue void with nothing but a harpoon and a whole lot of sharks who clearly didn’t get the memo that you’re supposed to be the scary one.
The controls are dead simple (arrow keys to move, space to shoot), but don’t let that fool you. The first time a great white comes barreling at you from off-screen, you’ll panic-fire like an idiot. Eventually, you learn to watch for the shadows in the distance, but even then, they’ll still sneak up on you. The water gets darker the deeper you go, which is either atmospheric or cruel, depending on how many sharks just ate your last life.
It’s got that classic DOS-era jank—the sharks move in weird, jagged patterns, and sometimes you swear your harpoon went right through them—but that’s part of the charm. No tutorials, no cutscenes, just you versus the ocean’s angriest residents. I lost three lives in the first two minutes and immediately hit restart. That’s how you know it’s good.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
