Crabmeat

I enjoyed this game far more than I expected to. The ambience here just gives me those goosebumps, the main reason why it was so immersive for me is that everything is done with the mouse: spinning the helm, adjusting the throttle, repairing the ship, sorting crabs and fish from the trap, apart from the inventory, notes and UI in general. I was sceptical at first, because your movement is mouse-driven too, and I thought that would ruin the game for me right from the beginning, but to my surprise, it didn't. Try it out, boys, it's short enough to finish in an evening or two, and also sends chills down your spine quite well too. This game is a must-play for spooktober, but beware of some scary crabs on the deck ;^)

Weird control system wasn't for me. I like that they tried something different, and it almost works, but it is just too frustrating to move the character around.

This game made me develop a love-hate relationship with crabs. Nothing better than pushing a giant chonker into the tank. Loved it. The vibe, the unease, the graphics, ship movement, all was great, working with each other to make a fluid whole. You can easily finish the game in one sitting, max everything out in one playthrough. I recommend you don't check the hidden achievements though. My first try remains my favourite, and going in blind is what made the experience so neat, but I happily returned again and again to get my 100% completion. If you like games that will creep you out, but are otherwise surprisingly cozy amidst the environmental horror and storytelling, this is exactly it. At first, you will flail around the ship in a rush, forgetting to do one thing or the other, but soon enough you ease into the rhythm. I love a lot of solutions here. The story surprises you throughout the whole game, beginning in the first cutscene, then continuing to rattle you when you don't expect it, through the gameplay itself. Only two issues, both incredibly minor and easy to overlook, at least personally: 1. The movement was quite tricky to get used to. Click a spot on the floor to walk…

[h1] Cool Game. Good Atmosphere [/h1] I liked it. I liked it more as a weird atmospheric strange crabbing game than I would say as horror per say though, as I didn't really get scared except for maybe one part, but I enjoyed it. I'm going to keep an eye out for more games from this dev, really solid atmosphere.

I did not look at any of the photos or promo videos for this game, I walked in thinking it was just going to be a fishing game but I soon found out it wasn't. Pretty fun/cool game for 8 bucks.
