This may look like another throwback 3D adventure, which seems to be a growing trend among indies, but it’s actually a souls-like adventure, which will see you taking on hardcore bosses and trying out a bunch of different shells, each with unique skills!

As Kril the hermit crab, you’ll need to wear the trash around you as shells to withstand attacks from enemies many times your size. Embark on an epic treasure hunt to buy back your repossessed shell and discover the dark secrets behind the polluted ocean.

Check out the launch trailer below:

This surprise indie release seems to be ticking all the right boxes and has a pretty positive initial score of 79 on Metacritic.

As seems to be the case lately with Nintendo Switch releases, it doesn’t perform quite as well as on other consoles, but according to a Reddit AMA, the developers reveal that more refinements are on the way:

Like most 3D games of this scale, the Switch version is locked to 30 FPS and has graphics downgrades compared to other platforms. It's just the reality of the hardware we're working with.

Honestly, if you're looking for the best performance you're better off elsewhere, but its still decent on Switch and we still have plans to bring the Switch version closer to parity in future updates.

Popular Switch YouTubers Switch Up seemed particularly fond of the title in their review, though they also lamented the occasional performance hiccups.

Check out the full description of the title below:

TRASH OR TREASURE?

In this undersea society, trash is not only a way of life, but a valuable resource, used for everything from fashion to firearms. But with the presence of trash comes a mysterious infection known as the Gunk, which could spell doom for the entire ocean.

LEARN FROM NATURE

As Kril explores the ocean, he'll gain a variety of Umami Techniques—powerful attacks learned from the denizens of the seas. Punch your enemies with the overwhelming might of a Mantis Shrimp, ensnare them with the horrifying Bobbit Worm, and much more.

UNEXPLORED DEPTHS

The ocean goes deeper than one can imagine. Fight your way through kelp forests, coral reefs, sand castle cities, and even the unfathomable darkness of the deep-sea trenches, all in the name of getting back your prized shell.
