Another Crab's Treasure is a Soulslike game, but aside from a few important mechanics, it marches to the beat of its own drum.
Soulslikes are punishingly difficult but amongst the most compelling games. Power Up Gaming goes through the top ten Soulslikes you're likely not playing.
Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?
Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.
All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.
The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.
Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.
Matt Owen from Super Gamesite 64 says..."The Souls-like genre has needed something a bit more lighthearted for a long time. Is Another Crab's Treasure the silly quest we've been waiting for?"
“Another month full of superb indie game releases has just passed us by so as always, let's celebrate the 12 very best ones.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
