About King Crab
King Crab is a physics-driven beach defense game where you reshape the sand to protect your crab’s castle from the ocean. Dig trenches, build walls and redirect waves as they crash toward your defenses. Each round, the water grows stronger and storms become more severe, putting the castle at greater risk of washing away.
Defend the castle
You protect the crab across multiple beach levels, each with different layouts, music and hazards. Waves, storms and floodwater can be redirected away from the castle, and no round plays exactly the same.
Explore the beaches
Between waves, you can leave the main path to search for hidden tools, items and surprises that offer new ways to defend the castle. The beaches also feature unpredictable water, wildlife and flooding houses. You can ride boats, surf and swim, throw physics objects around, dodge sharks, and encounter fish, sharks, squid, crabs, humans and other animals that may threaten your castle.
PC and VR
The game can be played on PC or in VR, with both versions included.
