Crab Tide Dash

Run with a little crab along a beach lit by the colours of dusk in Crab Tide Dash, a 2D endless runner. Jump over obstacles, dash through rows of barrels and collect pearls to boost your score as the pace picks up.

One tap to jump, two to dash
Tap the screen to jump over shells and avoid jellyfish. Tap twice quickly to turn your jump into a short dash that smashes barrels and leaves a trail of foam behind you. Watch the dash recharge indicator and time your moves carefully: dashing only protects you from barrels, and hitting another obstacle ends the run.

Five zones along the coast
Start in the shallows at dusk, then advance to the glowing reef, kelp cove, stormy pier and moonlit lagoon. The backgrounds, rhythms and obstacles change as you progress, from shells and jellyfish to driftwood, sea urchins, nets and swaying buoys.

Collect pearls and improve your score
Pearls appear on the ground and in arcs above obstacles. White, green and purple pearls award bonus points, and your score combines the distance travelled with these bonuses. Speed increases gradually, and the track sections vary from one run to the next.

Records and badges on your device
Track your ten best runs in a local records table showing distance, pearls, zone and date. Unlock 24 badges through distance milestones, pearl collecting, barrel smashing and other challenges. Badges are achievements to collect and provide no gameplay advantages.

A night-time beach atmosphere
Enjoy coastal scenery in shades of purple with glowing green accents, layered backgrounds and music that grows more intense in later zones. You can turn off sound and vibration in the settings, and pause a run before resuming or starting again.

The game works entirely offline, with no adverts, purchases, shop or accounts. Settings, records and badges are saved locally on your device.

The game interface is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian and French. The game starts in English, and you can change the language in the settings.
