Maneater elder level3/27/2023 ![]() ![]() Each hidden area has its back story and the grottos are colourful and detailed. Definitely not visuals of the year, but the underwater settings are well designed and thought out. But the game would’ve benefited from having them spawn a little bit later than right off the bat. Even at even level, crocodiles are a pain. It’s a bit frustrating as unlike most open-world games, it’s harder to escape the dangerous threat, and seeing them will have you having to come up with different paths to take or find ways around them. Right off bat, as a level 1, baby Shark, you’ll come across level 8 Crocodile that will eat you up in a matter of seconds. My main gripe with Maneater is that enemy encounters can be frustrating. Some items can only be collected after reaching a certain age range as either you need to jump high enough or a get past a gate that requires a certain “level of maturity”. Some collectables are easy to grab as they are underwater while others are above water and require players to jump or flop around the ground for a few seconds. You’ll discover various areas, chests with substances that will help you upgrade your skills and XP and collectables. The game has a bevvy of collectables to find underwater and out of water. A bit of grinding is required in order to survive. You have a tail whip which allows you to deal damage to the boat obviously, if you’re under-levelled, boats could seem like an impossible obstacle as hunters’ weapon do a lot of damage. ![]() Boats, especially hunter boats, are tougher enemies as you have to destroy the boats in order to kill the hunters or “lesser” humans. While your main attack is chomping on enemies and humans, you can jump out of the water and eat humans from certain types of boat. The minor issue is here even deep underwater, if you swim under a hunter’s boat, without being aggressive, they’ll still find you and shoot you.Ĭombat is simple yet somewhat deep. It’s a bit rough to get away but easier than escaping underwater threats such as gators. Sometimes you’ll be able to snack unnoticed, but other times, hunters will be alerted and hunt you down. If you thought eating swimming naive NPCs would be a cakewalk, think again. Not only will you be taking on underwater wildlife, but also humans will be gunning for you. So if you’re in a tough battle, use your sonar to find nearby, smaller fish to eat to stay alive. Eating not only rewards players with XP but also health. As you navigate the waters, you’ll come across grottos where you can take a breath and upgrade your shark as the game also features RPG mechanics.Īs you evolve from baby shark to elder shark, you’ll earn new skills such as a sonar or teeth which can be upgraded as you munch down aquatic snacks or humans. Maneater is an open (water) world game where players roam the deep blue sea of the Gulf. As you survive underwater and complete various objectives, your shark will grow up and get stronger. Maneater is unique as it let players take control of a shark from its infancy right up through elderly stages.
