About this game Read the full description
Crab Cakes Rescue is a unique puzzle game that will pinch your brain! Navigate your way through nearly 100 vibrant levels by shedding your shell to create new opportunities to escape! Each time a shell is shed, a block is created and your crabby crustacean self is shrunk. You must use these tricks wisely as you have a finite number of shells! And beware of pesky seagulls and other bothersome beach buddies as you find the best way to get up, down, and around each mind-boggling level. Prepare to spend hours on the sandy shore of Crab Cakes Rescue!

Features:

  • Nearly 100 mind-pinching levels!
  • Multiple ways to finish each level - you decide!
  • Avoid pesky birds and pollution
  • Use your shell “lives” to create new opportunities to win!
