### 4/5 — Something’s wrong with the daily check in option

*2026-08-30, version 3.80.2*

The time until the next check in is going up instead of going down, I can’t check in at all anymore, is it possible to fix it please?

### 3/5 — Bugs

*2026-06-21, version 3.80.2*

Hello I’m writing this review because i used to play this game so much when i was a kid, my cousin showed me this game and we used to play it together. I started playing again recently and noticed I couldn’t sign in or anything like that or the daily crab. As someone said in another review that this is there childhood favorite game and that striked me to make this review. I don’t think you guys update the game anymore but I’d love to see all the features usable that you have rn.

### 4/5 — Relaxing when trying to wind down for the night

*2025-09-08, version 3.80.2*

First time mom here, with post partum insomnia. This definitely helps me wind down when it’s time for me to finally get out of overdrive from baby overload. Mindless? Yes. But that’s helpful in some situations.

### 5/5 — AMAZING

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Connection error

*2026-07-29, version 3.80.2*

I can’t do any of the special events because it always says that I have a problem with my Internet connection even though it’s perfectly fine. Please fix your servers so that players can join and do these optional events which are necessary for progress.

### 1/5 — Impossible to sign in or buy anything

*2026-07-15, version 3.80.2*

I personally don’t care to buy anything but I played this when I was really young I’ve looked through the reviews and I guess other people match with the same story as me but I cant sign in, in any sort of way and I the first check point is seemingly infinite allowing me to have infinite gold and pearls which is just limiting from real progress.

### 1/5 — Cannot sign in

*2026-05-30, version 3.80.2*

I’ve tried repeatedly to Sign in with Apple or google play to get my previous progress back and it only tells me something went wrong and to try again later every single time. Fun game but restarting is not fun when I know I have progress on other accounts. Game also tells me I can’t do certain things without an internet connecting, but I have internet connection and have tried multiple different connections.

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2025-09-13, version 3.80.2*

Can't even play the game because it crashes after loading

### 1/5 — Bị Văn ra

*2024-11-16, version 3.74.0*

Vò được 1 lần à

### 1/5 — I lost most of my money

*2023-02-10, version 3.54.1*

This game is great and all I love playing it it cured my boredom but for some reason it keeps crashing I spent probably about 50 or more dollars on this game and I’ve gotten pretty far. And for the past 2 days my game won’t stop crashing non stop it says 40% loaded and bam crashed . But other then that thank you guys for your time and I hope my review helped someone.

### 1/5 — Ran into a glitch that completely reset my progress

*2022-12-07*

I love this game for its amazing art style, well-developed upgrade system, and its unique take on the clicker-game genre.

However, a while ago I updated my game when I was prompted to. After launching the game again it played the cutscene that you get for playing for the first time. I thought this was weird, but I figured I just needed to login to my account. But when I tried to login to my account, it said that I was already logged in, with a message saying something along the lines of “this account is already in use.”

**Developer response:** Hey antiCree! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Could you kindly share more on your situation by emailing to support@appxplore.com? We hope to hear from you soon. =)

### 1/5 — Very unhappy

*2022-11-17, version 3.50.0*

Loved the game but why has my account on my iPhone reset to the start yet iPad still working! Not happy. Sort it immediately. J

### 1/5 — 1 star for tracking

*2021-07-12*

I love many of the games from this developer. Especially this one, I have played it a lot over the years. There’s lots of really good depth, so that way and idle game isn’t always so idle if you didn’t want it to be. Unfortunately, after years of playing, I have noticed the levels of tracking this app has undergone. It was probably tracking all this data center beginning, and I feel violated now that I know what is being done. Thank you Apple, for making it clear how developers are potentially taking advantage of us. Unfortunately, this developer has been one to meet great games that are at a low price, which are subsidized by mining your data and information. I just can’t tolerate that any more.

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your concern with us, fellow crabber! We understand your concern in relations to Crab War's transparency on app tracking. In relations to app tracking, we only track and store your in-game activity and any data necessary for you to make purchases, save progress, receive ads appropriate to your location, etc. Our data is also stored in aggregate, which means we cannot link the data to a specific person in real life.

*2026-07-21, version 3.80.2*

### 5/5 — Hi

*2026-07-07, version 3.80.2*

I found this after years of wondering what it was, did not disappoint, though for some reason there was a period of time where the artifact 1 quest kept finishing whenever I opened the tab, until it stopped

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-01, version 3.80.2*

Good game

### 5/5 — Odd but cool

*2026-05-22, version 3.80.2*

So this games seems nice, good music, barley any ads,  if you choose to ofc, however for other players this games seems unplayable, i cant get the best apxlore crab or whatever its called… im not sure how but i cant complete the quest in other to get the crab, i need ti travel to the reptile land but i cant, it saids i have no internet connection, when however i do, it gives me the option for ads, (requires internet) and much much more, its a good game would play more if it wasnt so confusing…but over all great game! Would recommend.
