Shark Hunt is one of the programs included in the TELEMATH package by Psychotechnics, Inc, a series of math programs designed to teach 148 different math concepts. The programs (80 in total) were available in several different packages including two sets of 40 programs each or mini-sets with 10 programs.

In Shark Hunt, players need to correctly identify the percentage of various sized boxes that are shaded in order to go on a Shark Hunt; in this action sequence 3 harpoons can be fired at three sharks to earn points. At the end of the game the player with the most points wins. The game can be played with the keyboard or with Psychotechnics' TELEMATH paddles, a keypad-like controller which could connect to a joystick port.
