Excited I was, to begin my foray. To play as a crab was an interesting way. I kitted my crawdad and jumped in a game. I readied myself, this was my rise to fame! I clawed 'em and rushed 'em and wouldn't ya know, I made it to king in my very first show! "This sure was a feat I was bound to repeat" I said to myself on the edge of my seat. Next game underway I had grown very strong. Buffed up and quite large, what could really go wrong? Not too far away, almost shaking in dread. A tiny ass crab who was soon to be dead! I lunged at my foe with my shiv at my side, quite sure of myself but he did turn the tide. With a walloping *snap*, and after a *crack* I laid there and screamed on the shell of my back. "How did this happen?" I could really not see... He hacked and he slashed until I ceased to be. He scampered away with a really big grin, and I uninstalled cuz this game's pay to win.Show moreShow less

Unfortunately it's pay-to-win, as you can buy extra-lives to respawn during matches. If you don't buy lives, you are out of match at second death. The game is well done and pretty fun, but every shop that affects gameplay is not tolerable.Show moreShow less

The AI is ridiculous. Enemy AI will spawn in much larger sizes than you (sizes that you can't actually get to) and they'll spawn already equipped with weapons and oftentimes with much better stats (so they're always able to keep up with you). They'll then follow you all around the map to kill you, refusing to be distracted by anything or anyone. When you start doing really well, the game will say "Nope, you've had your fun, the game's over unless you pay us." and begin to spawn in these anti-fun unbeatable homing missile crabs until you inevitably succumb to the unfun. To top it off they add passive health degeneration for no reason. These mechanics make me want to pull my eyeballs out. :)Show moreShow less

Really a fun game, but if you come across a legendary crab with anything else except another legendary crab you will lose almost 100%. The game is ridiculously pay to win and you have to throw hundreds of dollars at the game for even a chance to get one of the overpowered units.Show moreShow less
