From the twisted minds at Alice Games comes Shark Dentist, an upcoming horror roguelike that blends surgical simulation with nerve-wracking survival. Currently available to wishlist on Steam, this bizarre game flips the shark genre on its head—by making you their doctor.
🦷 What Is Shark Dentist?
Unlike traditional shark games that pit players against toothy predators in survival or hunting scenarios, Shark Dentist takes a more unsettling route. Set in a claustrophobic underwater clinic, the game casts you as a lone dental surgeon tasked with treating sharks—while they sleep, suspended from the ceiling.
Armed with realistic dental tools like:
-
Scalpels
-
Drills
-
Syringes
-
Mirrors
-
Circular saws
…you’ll clean infected teeth, extract rot, and deal with randomized dental emergencies—all while monitoring anesthesia levels, oxygen supply, and the shark’s pulse. One wrong move, and your patient could wake up… and devour you whole.
👁️🗨️ Not Just a Dentist Simulator—It’s a Roguelike Horror Experience
Every playthrough of Shark Dentist is different. As a roguelike, it features:
-
Procedurally generated dental issues
-
Randomized tools and conditions
-
Debuffs that increase tension with every run
This means players must adapt to new procedures, equipment limits, and shifting dangers each time they suit up for surgery. The psychological horror is amplified by the slow, dread-filled pacing and grotesque medical visuals.
🎥 A Glimpse Into the Madness
The official trailer, now live on Steam, teases the chilling tone perfectly. Dim lighting, echoing heart monitors, the creaking chains suspending a massive shark—it’s Silent Hill meets Surgeon Simulator, but wetter.

While Shark Dentist doesn’t have a confirmed release date yet, players can wishlist it now on Steam. That said, the game has already captured attention for its wild concept and disturbing execution. It’s expected to become a cult hit among fans of indie horror and unconventional simulators.
