Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 18 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I love having crabs. I have recommended my friends get crabs. I have even offered to give my friends crabs. I can say with certainty that you will not regret getting crabs.
Adopting a crab is more fun than I expected
Honestly a very fun game and I can't wait to see future updates! Hoping maybe to more animals ! Love it!!
Game is in early access however being a part of the community and playing the game I can see it has a lot of potential. I would recommend playing the game.
I just love owning Crabs. Been growing and bonding with my boy Salty for almost 40 hours. Really simple format that works incredibly well. Cant wait to see where the game goes! CrabCrew4Lyf!
Cared for my crabs like a blue collar mother with a platinum credit card and now my crabs have grown to massive proportions, I'm thinking of sharing them or alternatively starting a crab army. CrabCrew4Lyf
Good game, living my dream of being a crustacean
