OCTOBER STEAM NEXT FEST DEMO

The demo for Another Crab's Treasure is coming to Steam for a limited time!

The chance to hear from you.

Aggro Crab will be using this chance to take feedback from the community! We wanna hear your thoughts as you play. What you like, what you don't like, bugs, and general thoughts. At the end of your playthrough, make sure to check out the feedback form in the main menu to help improve Another Crab's Treasure!

We'll also have a dedicated channel in our Discord regarding the Demo. Use these channels to report bugs, discuss with the community, and share funny videos of you getting owned by a crab. This will be available on Demo Launch Day.

Ok, but what can I expect in the demo??

Short answer is:

  • Three boss fights.
  • Two separate areas to explore.
  • Try out selected Skills, Shell Spells, and Adaptations.
  • Test out the Assist options to adjust gameplay to your liking.

Below we will be discussing what to expect in the demo in more detail, so if you'd like to go in blind... SEE YOU AT STEAM NEXT FEST STARTING OCTOBER 3rd!

The Moon Caves (Tutorial)

Whether you're a veteran or new soulslike player, we recommend you start here to understand the basics. This isn't to say it's an easy level, of course.

Explore through the caves, and end the level with a fight against a rather polluted crustacean.

The Expired Grove

Once you've gotten the hang of your abiltiies, (or you just no longer fall off cliffs and feel pretty proud of that) - WELCOME TO THE EXPIRED GROVE.

Explore the long forgotten village, now a gunked and polluted wasteland. Dodge or block the incoming barrage of arrows from corrupted villagers as you trek through a dense forest and across oil rivers.

Throughout this level you will face one miniboss and one big boss at the end of the journey. Try out the different shells you come across, and don't be afraid to grapple across some treacherous terrain.

Assist Options

New to soulslikes? Or maybe just not a fan of punishing gameplay? Try out our ASSIST OPTIONS!

Another Crab's Treasure was designed to make soulslike games more accessible. You can find these options in the settings menu when paused. Toggle specific needs to adjust the game to your liking!

HAVE FUN

The rest of the demo you'll have to explore yourself, but we're excited to see how you get along. Make sure to tag us on Twitter or TikTok if you share our demo! Once again, thanks for all the love and support on Another Crab's Treasure. We're excited to see you scuttle into the game soon.
