DuneCrawl Cannon Battles on a Giant Crab

Your crab is your ship. One of you takes the helm while the rest load the cannons, and together you steer across the desert to trade shots with enemy crawlers, bombard island fortresses and take on gigantic bosses. When a leg gets shot up, someone scrambles to repair it. Feeling bold? Launch yourself through the air and board the enemy directly. Between fights you deck the crawler out with spike armoured legs, guided torpedoes, or just a new hat and a sporty paintjob, because a war crustacean deserves to look good.

The desert is an open world of dozens of islands, each reachable by crab. You dock, stretch your legs on two feet and get to work: completing quests for the Polloi pilgrims, hunting through secret dungeons, and collecting loot. Dungeons mix puzzles with bullet-hell style fights, and the underground areas are a highlight. Out in the open you fight with hand weapons and whatever the local wildlife offers: chuck a Bomb Flower, lob a Beehive, or drop a Spider Egg and let nature do the hitting.

Giant crabs are not the only ride in town. Team up with friends on multi-saddle Beetles, zip around on skittering Nymphs, or smash through opposition on armoured Scorpions and Ball Bugs. Each mount changes how a fight goes: the heavy ones break through lines, the quick ones let you dart between objectives while the crab takes the long way. It is a silly, joyful way to cross the dunes, and it makes even a supply run feel like a small adventure.
