SCRAP is a fast-paced action game rooted in Hawaiian values and culture. Stand up for the ‘āina (land), protect the community, and scrap with aloha. You play as a local warrior defending your island from disrespectful behavior — from taking rocks to touching turtles. Battle through escalating arcs of challenging boss fights, each inspired by real-life issues faced in Hawai‘i. Unlock unique gear, earn cosmetics, and collect coconut tickets in a game built with heart, humor, and local pride. FEATURES • Arc-Based Boss Battles: Face off against 10 unique arcs, each highlighting a different kind of disrespectful act, ending in intense and meaningful boss fights. • Customize Your Warrior: Equip headgear, torsos, arms, and legs with both stat-based gear and cosmetics to reflect your style. • SCRAP With Aloha: Gameplay balances hard-hitting action with messages of compassion, kuleana (responsibility), and pono (righteousness). • Coconut Draw: Win exclusive cosmetics, rare outfits, and more. • Pupu: Earn in-game currency through wins, perfect blocks, and completing arcs. • Cutscenes With Mana: Hand-crafted story scenes that reflect the emotional journey of each arc. • Supporter System: Subscribe to unlock monthly perks and exclusive cosmetic sets — 100% optional, 100% appreciated. SCRAP was created with respect for Hawai‘i, by people who care deeply about protecting the culture, land, and people. It’s a game for those who understand — and those who want to.

Both are free to download. Wittle Defender sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and SCRAP by emptypenz sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Wittle Defender holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wittle Defender has 3.3K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Wittle Defender's written reviews are positive against 100% of SCRAP by emptypenz's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Wittle Defender ships an update monthly, SCRAP by emptypenz every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
