Description

Become the Guardian of the Abyss and lead the Great Migration to bring forth the next Crab God 🦀 Use your growing knowledge and great power to command your loveable crab babies (Crablings) to restore your ocean domain and protect your successor’s egg as you venture into the watery depths.

Grow Your Crabling Colony

Raise your Crablings! Nurture their personalities and potential as they worship you, build mighty coral reefs, fend off threats, and collect food for the journey ahead. Name them. Upgrade them. Grow your unique colony and guide them with your mighty claw as they become the next generation of ocean caretakers.

Lead the Great Migration

It is time for a new Crab God to rise and protect the oceans and it is your job to lead a successful migration, taking your egg to the depths where it can hatch. Balance the growth of your colony with the safety of your egg, otherwise, you will need to return to the shallows and start the migration anew.

Cultivate a Vibrant Underwater Ecosystem

Reintroduce a healthy and vibrant diversity back to the ocean, and protect it from predators seeking easy prey. Varied sea life will sustain your colony. Unlock new combinations of flora and fauna to create a beautiful underwater environment.

Real World Change

Working with dots.eco, your in-game progression will help contribute to actual ocean conservation efforts. As you cultivate the great reefs of the Crab God, you will also be helping to sustain the beautiful world environment that inspires games like ours.

!UPDATE! Crabling Customisation

Make each of your precious Crablings unique by customising their color, accessories, tools and more! You can even unlock little fish buddies to keep them company as you play.

It's just Kingdom Two Crowns with crabs. Also the game doesn't respect your time, and you can't save and quit during a run.

I kept playing and thought, "This can't possibly be it, right?" And nope. You're literally just clicking a carousel of icons, round and round she goes. At least idle games reward persistence with automation. This is

The graphics are great the gameplay loop is fun but gets old rather quick. More different enemies would help. The achievements are a chore. 30 nights is a lot and I don't know if the game can be in a world that long
