March 2025
At its core, Crab Champions is a roguelike movement shooter - a bit of a mash-up between the item building of Risk of Rain and the core gameplay and movement of Ultrakill or Doom Eternal, though lighter versions of both. It's accessible and fun at its lower difficulties, and a fair and enjoyable challenge at its higher difficulties. Crab Champions exemplifies the concept of "early access indie game" more than any other game I've played, as it is in active development and is only developed by one dude. The game is clearly playable - I'm sitting at 950+ hours as of writing - but content is still being developed, and certain gameplay concepts are still finding their identity. There are occasional bugs, jank, and things that may feel unbalanced. The developer is extremely active with feedback, and much of where the game is can be tied to direct influence from the community. All of this sums up to be a very charming and special experience that you can't find in many other games nowadays. Not everyone will find 900+ hours out of Crab Champions. There is an initial "unlock" phase early on where you unlock weapons and items that can be used in runs, and that phase goes by quickly. The primary end game loop revolves around beating the "hardest" difficulty on each weapon, which then gives you a medal rank for that weapon (e.g. Silver, Gold, Diamond, etc.). The end game loop is effectively finished once you have gotten the highest medal, Diamond, for every weapon. Afterwards, there is a secret "actual hardest" difficulty, though this isn't for everyone for a variety of reasons. After that point, the game is what you make of it. For $15, most players will have a good time, maybe take a crack at getting all Diamonds and achievements, and then set it down to wait for the next major update. Maybe a fair 20-40 hours of gameplay. Those players will have a pretty good time and probably get their money's worth. For the players that hunger for the buildcrafting of Risk of Rain and the movement and chaos of Doom, and never expected to find the two mashed together into a game where you play as a crab with a gun killing other crabs to funky tropical beats, this is likely to net you hundreds and hundreds of hours. Perhaps you can even be The Crab Champion, but you'll have to beat me to it.

The biggest problem I have with this game is trying to not get my crab champion killed because I want to rave to the soundtrack like it's 2018 again. A ten dollar video-game that feels like a video-game and nothing else. Just pure, fast-paced nonsensical fun - highly recommended.

You get to play as a crab with guns and Warframe level movement. You may not like it, but this is what peak gameplay looks like.

Accidentally increased enemy spawns by 10200% Tried the next level anyways Everything dies automatically due to my build About one hour later the last mob dies The game surprisingly still runs The entire stage is covered in items dropped by enemies and chests I press the autoloot button 4 Minutes pass Crash to desktop I can't open any programs, including the task-manager because the game still takes up all 32GB of my RAM, despite having crashed 10/10 has builds that need a PC restart

Love the game, At about 45 hours atm, super replayable, challenging but not impossible achivements and generally a great game! One of the best games i have played in years, Honestly just get it :) Mostly in hopes Devs see this: Honestly my only complaint is that you can only have one saved game Either singleplayer or multiplayer, It would be nice if atleast there was a "multiplayer save slot" and a "singleplayer save slot" at the very least with preferablly 2 multiplayer ones for different friends who want long runs (I will edit this if and when this is changed!) please like if you agree in hopes devs see :) Overall Would highly reccomend this game!!
