Video Game Reviews of Mystery of Shark Island
Customer Review: Could have and should have been expanded upon.
Summary: 3 Stars
This was not the type of hidden object game I thought it may be. Too much repetition and simple game play. No really "hidden" objects. "Match three" gamers may like it better. The graphics are good, though. Different scenery might have inproved this game a bit. After all, it IS called "Mystery of Shark Island", the descriptive word being "island" and not "waves".Customer Review: Kind of Boring.
Summary: 2 Stars
I got bored after a few rounds of this game. It's not that fun to just find shells!Customer Review: Mystery of Shark Island
Summary: 4 Stars
I found this game hard because of the small pieces and the short time. I finally worked through it but had to repeat some findings several time. If you don't give up easy or have very good eye sight and work fast this is the game. Will play it again to see if I can beat the odds. Customer Review: Mystery Of Shark Island

Did not care too much for this game. I love the hidden object games, but this one fell short. I like to find "different" objects, this one was the same one, just different shapes and colors.
I was disappointed, overall.....
Customer Review: no rooms, just beach- gets boring
Summary: 2 Stars
I just tried the demo for this which was 60 minutes of waves coming in and delivering shells. It gets kind of lame after a while since there are no other scenes to explore, just the same stretch of beach. I would recommend the following Hidden Object games for Mac OS. 1) "Interpol- On the Trail of Dr. Chaos - This has about 30 places to go and the images and graphics are the crispest I have seen." Graphic sharpness in games can increase the overall rating by up to two stars since it impacts game-play and likability so much. 2) "Little Shop, Big City"- This games beats Little Shop of Treasures one and two by a long shot with more things to do and better graphics, though all 3 would be a delight for kids. As an adult, I recommend just "Little Shop, Big City." 3) "Madame Fate" and the other MCF (Mystery Case File) Games... They are a lot of fun, however, I played Madame Fate first which was definitely the best, so it was hard playing the other ones which had fewer and less complex puzzles. Also, in Madame Fate you get to look for a stand still object which changes on the board before your eyes, and believe it or not, this change is not easily seen. You get bonus scenes and objects for finding these "inanimate" objects. Sadly, when it comes to hidden object games, they have all but ignored us humble Macintosh Fans. There are about 2 dozen Hidden Object games for mac and a couple hundred for Windows. I used my husband's Windows OS to play "Big City Adventure: San Francisco", and had I been able to play it on my Mac Laptop, I would have rated it in my top 3 above.
