Crabmeat

Crabmeat is a short first-person point & click survival horror game where you are tasked with crabbing for the priceless southern King Crab. As an indebted prisoner of the Feudostate, you must collect your quota within seven days or risk permanent expatriation from the state for you and your family. Navigate the harsh waters of the Antarctic and defend your ship from the threats that dwell under the icy waters. King Crabs are not the only crustaceans you'll encounter in this southern wasteland. Crew the advanced crabbing vessel alone, maintain its components, and navigate to bountiful shores. In this frigid place, will you find freedom or your end?

  • Explore this icy southern wasteland in your government-issued crabbing vessel
  • Bait, place, winch, and empty traps to bring in big hauls of precious crabs
  • An experimental blend of First Person and Point and Click gameplay, where the entire game is playable with only a mouse
  • Defend yourself and the ship from the denizens of the sea
  • Short 2-3 hour experience
