About Sharks and Minnows
Sharks and Minnows is an exploration-based survival horror game where players scavenge a haunted swim center and must complete ten laps to escape.One autumn afternoon, your trip to the local pool takes a paranormal turn. After emerging from the water, you suddenly find yourself totally alone. Any attempt to leave just leads you back to the water. The more you swim, the more your stamina drains, and running out has deadly consequences. The facility has scattered supplies that could replenish it, but you'll have to search for them.It's lonely. Will you ever make it home?As you explore deeper into the facility's alcoves for supplies, you get the sense that your search isn't solitary. If you aren't careful, you may end up trapped forever.

👍 Recommended I picked this game up expecting a quick indie horror experience, but it surprised me with how tense it managed to be from beginning to end. Instead of throwing constant jump scares at you, Sharks and Minnows creates fear through its atmosphere. Every time you step into the water, there's a lingering feeling that something is following you, even when you can't see anything. That constant uncertainty is what makes the game so effective. The gameplay is simple to understand, but that's actually one of its strengths. You're always balancing exploration with survival, trying to complete your objective while keeping an eye on your surroundings. As the game progresses, the tension ramps up naturally, with new dangers appearing and forcing you to rethink how you move around the map. It never felt unfair to me, just increasingly challenging. The visuals deserve a lot of credit as well. The dark water, limited visibility, and overall environment work together to create an eerie atmosphere. You rarely feel safe, and the game does a great job of making your imagination fill in the gaps. Sometimes not seeing what's beneath the surface is much scarier than seeing it.
