Very random question, but I've been searching (unsuccessfully) for this computer game made for Mac that involved sharks. From what I remember, you basically created your own shark and watched it grow/have babies/etc. Anyone know of it?

You're not thinking of Jaws Unleashed are you? (Probably not, but it's all I can think of. I don't even know if it made it to Mac, but I seem to recall hearing plans for that.)

Thanks for the reply, but no... the game I'm looking for is basically just you watching your shark grow/interact with other sharks. lol

But as a side note, does anyone know any games similar what I'm talking about? Like Sims, but not w/ people.

Uh, Odell Down Under? That wasn't for Mac OS X iirc, but it was for Classic Mac OS.

Sorry, no, this game deals just with sharks. All I remember about how you got it was that it was a simple download from the internet...

Don't know. There was a game called Feeding Frenzy but I think you were just a fish.

Reminds me of Wolf Quest though, an edu-game I keep meaning to check out. It's free and very modern (3D etc.):

Yeah, the game I'm looking for does sound like Wolf Quest. Thanks for the help! I'll check out Wolf Quest if my search turns out unsuccessful.
