DuneCrawl is an open world action-adventure game where you and up to three friends explore the sandy seas atop a gigantic Crab Crawler.
Battle against the jar-headed Vassals, survive hordes of wild bugs, explore oasis islands and delve devious dungeons all to help your fellow Polloi pilgrims win their war against the Ceramicist’s invasion!
Key Features
COOP AND SOLO PLAY:
Adventure in local or online coop with up to 4 players, or take to the wastelands by yourself with a bit of help from a ghostly companion!
OPEN WORLD EXPLORATION:
Navigate your Dune Crawler through the desert and visit dozens of islands to complete quests, explore secret dungeons, and collect piles of loot!
UPGRADE YOUR ARSENAL:
Gain powerful new player abilities by collecting Masks, Tunics, and Talismans! Unlock weapons like the Buzzooka and Acid Harpoon! Deck out your Dune Crawler with upgrades like Spike Armoured legs and Guided Torpedoes (or just give her a new hat and sporty paintjob)!
CRUSTACEAN COMBAT:
Man the cannons and take the helm with your crew to fight against other crawlers, gigantic bosses, and island fortresses! Load cannonballs, repair damaged legs, and even launch yourself through the air for daring boarding actions!
BUG RIDING:
Giant crabs aren’t your only form of arthropodic locomotion! Team up with friends to ride multi-saddle Beetles, zip around on skittering Nymphs, or smash through any opposition with armoured Scorpions and Ball Bugs!
SWASHBUCKLING ACTION:
Sometimes fighting on two feet is best! Help your fellow Polloi fight off the Vassal invaders with a wide array of hand weapons and items, or make use of the deadly local wildlife with Bomb Flowers, Beehives, and Spider Eggs!
