Episode #9
Another Crab's Treasure w/ Krissy Flora and Kipp FullLore
Krissy (Flora) and Kipp (FullLore) join Kevin to talk about the adorable but deep souls-like Another Crab’s Treasure. Though the game has a great story, this is absolutely not a spoilercast. Instead the three of them get into topics like how well the souls-like formula is implemented here, how well the shell system works, and what their favorite umami (magic) spells were. They also had to talk about the sense of humor on display here and the variety of ocean-related puns that are peppered throughout the game. It also wouldn’t be an episode about a souls-like game without covering boss fights, so they go through a list of just some of the best and worst that gave them so much trouble. They also touch on the accessibility options that make this one of the most approachable games in the very intimidating genre and why anyone should at least try it. One of these options takes the concept of accessibility in a unique direction and they touch upon just how ridiculous it is. Throughout the episode Krissy also schools them with the staggering breadth of her oceanic knowledge and how many excellent real-life references there are here. If you haven’t played Another Crab’s Treasure by the time you’re listening to this episode, we sincerely hope this gets you to at least try it.
