Welcome to "House of Crab."
Crabs: Chef's Story is a 2–8 player PvP brawler that plays like a couch party game, but is built for online or LAN play. Grab your crew, pick your crab, and brawl across a kitchen full of deadly hazards in quick 2–7 minute rounds. Best with friends, open to anyone. Easy to pick up, packed with chaos, and built for the kind of moments you'll be clipping for weeks.
MASTER 'CRAB-FU'
A full brawler moveset, jab, uppercut, dash, flip, ground pound, grab and throw. This isn't floppy-physics flailing: it's rock-paper-scissors with claws. Dizzy an opponent by blocking his charging dash, break blocks with a well timed uppercut, and dodge attacks to turn the tables. Read your opponent, time your attacks, and you'll be cracking shells while your friends are still finding the buttons. Easy to learn, with real depth to master.
NAVIGATE WITH 'PARK-CLAW'
Jump, climb, swim and scuttle your way to victory. Scuttling at top speed recharges 'Crab-Zen', for special moves, unleash dashes, counters and ground-pounds to crush your rivals. Stay still and you're a sitting target, keep up the pace and become a crustacean crushing menace.
SURVIVE THE KITCHEN COLOSSEUM
Explore the kitchen, weaponise it, survive it. Ride extractor fans to reach high ground, but stay clear of the blades. Pelt rivals with tin cans, fruit and veg for one-hit kills, or bounce them on jellies into the chaos. Dodge flying cleavers, rolling pins and knives. Don't get cooked in the soup or set ablaze on the hobs. Use the kitchen, or the kitchen uses you.
