This side-scrolling underwater adventure is based on the 2004 feature film of the same title, which tells the tale of two misfits -- a kind-hearted shark and a fast-talking fish -- who swim into trouble together when each tries to be something he is not. Players take the role of Oscar, the charming, colorful "hustler fish," who works at the local Whale Wash and spends a lot of his free time trying to live up to his own boasts. Oscar can show he's got room to talk, however, through a selection of mini-games that have him exploring the city, collecting items, and engaging opponents in occasional fin-to-fin fighting. The game features three battery save slots, allowing multiple players to each save their place in the adventure. The GBA version of DreamWorks' A Shark Tale is aimed at a wide audience and may be more suitable for the youngest gamers than its console counterparts. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
