Shark Dentist, a new PC game from developer Alice Games, is exactly what it sounds like: you are a shark dentist who must perform dental work on anaesthetized sharks, but if you mess up, they might wake up in pain and rip your head off.
There’s a lot more to it than that, though. You’ll have to manage anasthesia doses and oxygen levels; monitor the shark’s pulse; administer drugs; work on teeth with circular saws, drills, and mirrors; and more – all the while the deadliest creature on earth hangs suspended from the ceiling just inches from your face.
There will also be randomized events to deal with that will keep you on your toes, like pain spikes and tool malfunctions as well as debuffs. Be sure to watch the trailer at the top of this page to see what happens when things go badly, and be sure to wishlist Shark Dentist on Steam if you’re interested.
