King of Crabs 9+

Focus on 1 crab if you are F2p

I play on iPhone SE 2016 At first I was ready to uninstall the game because of how fast it drained my batteries but this was pretty much solved by changing graphics from mid to low. After you get past the quick tutorial of this game you get put into a battle against other players, what u don’t know is that this sort of easy noob arena where you can easily become king crab continues until you reach a certain rank, after that you suddenly find your self in the arena with the strong players and you will keep dying to what you would call Pay 2 win players. A lot of people say that the game is pay 2 win, yes there are consumable boosts like “faster growth” and “magnetic”. spenders would definitely have a lot of these. But The mega and legendary crabs and the upgrade points for the crabs are not pay 2 win, these are fairly easy to obtain as a F2p by simply playing the game and climbing the ranks / completing quests for gacha spins. Upgrade points are rotated in the shop. Here’s what I recommend, if u are going to be F2P you must focus all your attention on and main 1 crab. That 1 crab will gain levels as you play, each level represents 1% growth to your crab, so let’s say your crab is level 80, it will enter the game at 80% growth. All your earned pearls you would spend them on buying upgrade points from the shop rotation and soon you have your self a crab that easily competes with the pay 2 win.

Thank you for the very detailed review and 5 stars! We continue to balance the game and as you mentioned, introduced ranked servers so that similar skilled players will battle against with each other. All crabs have a strength and weakness, even the legendary crabs. Finding the crab that best fits your play style and levelling it up is good advice. Worth noting the more crabs you have levelled up, the more scavenger coins will be available to collect. We have plenty of updates planned for the future!

Best game!

The best game I have on my phone, but, it feels a little limited, perhaps more game modes? Like a friend only mode, where it is a mode you can only play with friends, like a private server in a way! Or predators all out, a game mode with TONS of predators, like sharks, crocodiles, and seagulls. I also appreciate the amount of crabs they have, with lesser known crabs like spanner crabs, elbow crabs, and vampire crabs, with fictional species like the robot crab, demon crab, alien crab, and Dino crab, they even have the Atlantic lobster and mantis shrimp as playable “crabs”! So the sheer amount of characters is very nice, the crabs I listed are only half of the crabs that are playable! Now, if you are planning to download this game, which crabs should you get? Well, I have your back! The hermit crab can heal itself, which is useful if something is attacking you, the yeti crab literally slams the ground like King Kong or something, the damage is crazy, the blue crab, although being a beginner crab, has a useful ability, it can freeze enemies! And the Atlantic Lobster can become temporarily gigantic and stronger, allowing you to put up a fight with bigger players and enemies, so those are crabs I recommend based on experience, in short, I love this game so much! And I think you should download it!

Alien crab ability is way too op

I recently got Robot Crab from crab grab (yay finally I get a crab that is mega rare or higher) and I’ve nearly maxed its hp with a little points in damage, in game I’m max growth and I attack an alien crab. It than proceeds to use its ability and kill me in seconds. What? That is so busted. I understand that it’s a legendary but Robot Crab has an average-pretty bad ability, why does alien crab get to have such a busted ability? (To be fair Robot crab is new so it’s ability will probably be buffed in some way, another thing I would like to see as it’s easy to avoid) This is not the only time, I’ve constantly been killed by alien crabs that use their ability’s and run off knowing that the little aliens do way to much damage and there is too much of them. I really like the way this game is going. And if alien crab gets an ability nerf it would fix an issue, also I notice not much people write about alien crab ability because they have bought it and they’re using it to kill way too much stuff so yeah. Btw if issues that most people are suggesting to be fixed/added back in (friendly mode I’m looking at you) than I’m positive that I will give a five star review as this game is really fun and worth the grind! (a while ago I got lobster from trophies reward, I took a break and I’m back)

Thank you maxx osorio for your descriptive review and 4 star rating. With all new updates and introduction of new content. It can be tricky to get the balancing right first time so we continually tweak and re-balance all crabs many months after their initial release. This would included the Alien crab's special and we are due to reduce it's attacking prowess. The Robot crab is very new and we love it's special although we may tweak it to inflict more damage or reduce it's vulnerability position once firing the rockets. The more constructive feedback we receive, the better guidance we have on the changes to be made. Best regards, The Robot Squid Team
