Sharkrunners
Sharkrunners season 1 was a game created by area/code for the Discovery Channel as part of the channel's 20th year of Shark Week. The game used satellite tracking of six great white sharks off the coast of California. Users were able to take control of research vessels to gather, in real-time, information on the sharks, while trying to earn funding. Players could rename the sharks. At ports, players could use four main services: buying gas, boat upgrades, equipment, and hiring crew. There were four boats in the game. Each could have an engine refit and upgraded fuel tanks.
Sharkrunners season 2 used satellite tracking of ten tiger sharks and ten grey reef sharks off the northern coast of Queensland, Australia.
Sharkrunners was removed from Discovery Channel online in July 2011.
