Hammerhead Shark

The Hammerhead Shark, or simply Hammerhead, is an enemy more strong than the normal Shark, but less strong than the Tiger Shark. Hammerheads usually start appearing after the first couple levels of the Adventure Mode, and about 1000 feet down in Abyss Mode.

Though they are usually not unreasonable opponents on their own, the hammerheads do not indicate whether they have 1 or 2 health points remaining, and, as a result, the player should pay close attention and keep track in order to beat them. A hammerhead with two hitpoints farther back may be more dangerous than a hammerhead closer to the Diver with only one zap remaining.

Though the hammerheads are not too big of a hassle when first encountered, they can, like other enemies, use stealth mode later in the game, making them much tougher. Stealth hammerheads may appear alongside Tiger Sharks or regular sharks.
