- This installment transforms the franchise into a real-time strategy experience

- Dominate battles by deploying specialized crab armies with unique roles

Longtime readers might remember our 2019 review of the quirky battle royale King of Crabs. While it didn't fully win over our reviewer, developer Robot Squid is giving the franchise new life with King of Crabs - Invasion - this time venturing into RTS territory rather than revisiting the battle royale formula.

Channeling the spirit of classic RTS games like Age of War, King of Crabs - Invasion features head-to-head battles across linear battlefields. Strategic decision-making becomes crucial as you carefully select units to deploy - from standard crab battalions to specialized artillery like catapults and mace-wielding warriors - all while navigating environmental obstacles that add tactical depth to each encounter.

The game successfully translates the original's crustacean combat chaos into this fresh RTS format. What began as a humorous concept of battling crabs naturally evolves into this accessible yet entertaining strategy experience. However, considering our initial concerns about the original game's lasting appeal, questions remain about whether King of Crabs - Invasion can sustain player interest beyond its novel premise.

Mark your calendars for May 30th to discover whether this crustacean RTS manages to sink or swim. For players seeking more conventional strategy experiences, we recommend browsing our curated list of the 25 best mobile strategy games currently available on iOS and Android platforms.
