About this guide

About this guide

A free, independent fan guide to Everything is Crab, with evolution information, build routes, achievement help, and player examples in five languages.

Who publishes the guide

Nocti is the public pen name of the editor behind Everything is Crab Guide. The guide has been published since May 2026. Its editorial contact is support@everythingiscrab.org; the same address handles corrections and image concerns. The Nocti byline identifies responsibility for the guide text. Community results retain the names of the players who reported them, and the linked sources identify the observations and changes each guide draws on.

Using a route and its evidence

Begin with the goal of your next attempt: a first win, a named achievement, a challenge restriction, or a particular evolution. The build directory links those goals to relevant cards and mechanics. The visual planner lets you arrange a proposed route and share it, but it does not simulate combat or measure a build’s chance of winning. Check prerequisites and the cards available in your own run before treating a plan as an achievable sequence.

What a test record must show

A first-hand test needs an identified tester, game version, platform, Pressure or challenge mode, selected genetics and evolutions, and a stated result. A comparison of damage or completion times also needs comparable conditions and repeated observations. An official patch mentioning a strategy or a community member reporting success does not make it a first-hand test by this site. A cropped screenshot may support a visible number without establishing the rest of the run; its caption should describe only what can be seen.

Updates and funding

Official announcements can change platform availability, card effects and challenge behavior. Updates follow the particular pages affected by a documented change, while historical player records retain their original context. The patch-note directory provides dated entries to compare with older advice. Google AdSense integration is separate from editorial recommendations: ad availability depends on approval and the applicable privacy choices. Advertisers do not determine which build or evolution a guide recommends. See the privacy policy for the current consent controls and advertising setup.

Editorial standard

Our guides explain choices: which evolution fits a route, when a trade-off matters, and how to recover from a weak start. Database entries summarize effects; route guides explain how to use them together.

What we cover

The site covers evolution roles, genetics unlocks, build routes, achievement planning, mechanics, and questions raised by players. It does not provide cheat downloads, unofficial installers, or executable game files.

Collection and verification

Evidence varies by page. Official patch notes support the changes they describe; developer replies can clarify a particular interaction. Community screenshots and reports show individual results, not a guarantee that a route works for every player. Some database entries lack an independently linked check of their exact values; compare these with the current in-game card or Codex. Missing fields remain unknown.

Version and revision labels

Core pages use Version 1.2.1 as a patch reference. Historical records and patch articles retain the versions they describe. A page’s Last updated date records a content change, not a complete fact check or a claim that every strategy was tested that day. Where available, a dated source identifies the specific change it supports.

Reading the sources

A storefront establishes the game and publisher; it does not establish an evolution’s damage or an achievement’s unlock condition. Follow the sources on the relevant guide for its dated changes and player examples. Recommendations are guide advice unless explicitly attributed to a developer or documented result.

Rights and media provenance

Everything is Crab is developed by Odd Dreams Digital and published by Secret Mode. This guide is independent of both. The site uses official promotional screenshots and in-game icons or sprites for identification, commentary, and route visualization. Public community screenshots are presented as player examples; consult the relevant source link for context. These materials remain the property of their respective rights holders and uploaders. Attribution is not a claim of permission or endorsement.

Correction path

Send patch corrections, unlock information, translation feedback, or media concerns to support@everythingiscrab.org. Include the page URL, game version, in-game language, and a screenshot or public source when possible. A published correction changes the affected page’s Last updated date; it does not certify the rest of the page. Rights holders can use the same address to request removal, replacement, or attribution changes.
