What makes a good action game? Usually escalating difficulty, a satisfying rhythm once you learn the patterns and short, intense rounds — and King of Crabs has each of them in some measure.

Tips and tricks

  • Keep moving. Standing still is the most common way to lose an action round, because the game is designed to punish hesitation.
  • Sound is a cue. Many action games telegraph attacks with an audio effect a moment before the visual one — play with sound on when you are learning.
  • Learn the enemy or obstacle patterns before you try to go fast — most action games repeat a handful of behaviours, and once you recognise them the game slows down in your head.
  • Do not chase every bonus. Collectibles placed near danger are a trade-off the designer set for you; take them only when your position is safe.
