    If the fact that the star of this game is a crab with an hat is not enough, you should know that Mr. Crab is a clever platform game, with a smart level design and a lot of replay value.

    Mr. Crab ($0.99, Universal) is another finely crafted iOS experience from Illusion Labs that effortlessly rises above a crowded App Store to make it a should buy. This is how you rise above the sea of sameness in the App Store.

    I very much enjoyed my time playing Mr. Crab. While it doesn’t cram itself with the intentionally addictive progress bars and elements, the fast-paced gameplay and unique level design kept me glued to the iPad.

    Mr. Crab is an adorable game with classic sensibilities. Though it could have spent more time iterating on its eventual brutally difficulty, it’s the right size as a digestible chunk of the sweaty-palmed platformers of yesteryear.

    Mr. Crab is the McDonald’s toy equivalent of an iPhone game, and it didn’t come free with the Happy Meal.

    Mr Crab is a fantastic platformer for young graduates to learn about the harsh realities of working life. No matter how hard Mr Crab jumps,Mr Crab is a fantastic platformer for young graduates to learn about the harsh realities of working life. No matter how hard Mr Crab jumps, all he does is wallow in the base levels of each stage as the clunky iPhone tap controls maim his abilities and swiftly murders any ambitions he has. Expand
