My speakers were immediately flooded with people yelling “fuck you” at one another as loud as they could prior to the game starting - loud enough that I had to turn the volume down, since the game itself became pretty much inaudible - and once the game was underway, I was greeted in short order by someone yelling “nigger” at me because I happened to make a jump they missed. I avoided those servers and joined one with an inoffensive-sounding name just as a new match was beginning. I was immediately suspicious when I pulled up the server browser and was confronted with game names like “RACISTS ONLY” and “IF YOU ARE JEWISH DONT JOIN”, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt - as objectionable as this sort of thing is, it’s also pretty common among edgelords on the Internet who think they’re being big and clever.
Which means that your average Crab Game player is probably going to have to delve into the public games if they want to play on a semi-regular basis. And not all of us are blessed with an army of VTubers who we can collaborate with at a moment’s notice - doubtless plenty of you reading this have as much trouble as I do getting just four people together to play anything without planning things for them several months in advance.
Every match is a little bit different from the last, with variation brought about through both the number of players competing and the exact lineup of challenges.Īll sounds pretty fun, doesn’t it? And it absolutely is if you set up a private game to play with friends - although it’s worth noting that the game as a whole is much more interesting with larger groups. Sometimes you’ll be playing “Red Light, Green Light” at the risk of exploding into bloody chunks if you move when you’re not supposed to. Sometimes you’ll be battling other players directly in order to defeat them, or ensure that they’re left holding an undesirable object when the time expires. Sometimes you’ll be negotiating obstacle courses and competing against other players to reach the finish line. There’s a wide selection of maps and game modes that puts a lot of commercial releases to shame. When just a single player remains, that player is crowned the winner, and is awarded a number of million non-existent dollars that corresponds to the number of players they overcame to be king of the hill - for example, someone who wins a 40-player game will receive “40 million”.
Crab game update series#
A typical Crab Game match unfolds over a series of rounds, during each of which a number of participants will be eliminated, either through failing to complete the round’s objective or simply dying while attempting to accomplish the objective.
