About Half Shark Escape

Escape Area 51

Half Shark - Escape is a cooperative 3D platformer where you and your friends play as genetically modified sharks trapped inside Area 51. Your goal is simple: escape. Work together using physics-based movement, your tongue, and proximity voice chat to overcome obstacles and keep each other alive. The problem? The key to your escape is also a bomb. Keep it safe, pass it around, and make it through before it blows up.

Key Features

Use your tongue to survive

The Half Sharks have the unique ability to attach themselves to various surfaces using their tongues. Master this swinging and grappling mechanic to make your descent possible (and avoid fatal falls!).

Explosive teamwork

The bomb is your key to escaping Area 51 — and it gets to decide who should carry it next. Pass it to the chosen player to reset the timer, keep it safe, and work together before someone inevitably blows it up.

Explore the unknown

Overcome diverse challenges and deadly obstacles scattered across the game's many different maps.
