Another Crab’s Treasure: All shells, abilities, and locations

Shells come in all shapes and sizes in Another Crab’s Treasure, and the best part is most of them aren’t even shells. As you venture throughout the Shallows and beyond, you’ll come across a variety of “homes” that protect Kril and assist in combat.

Each shell has a defense level and a weight, which determines your dodge and movement speeds. Most of the shells you find in game also offer an ability with an effect that can help you in combat. There are a total of 69 shells in Another Crab’s Treasure, and you’ll need to find each one before it appears in your collection.

But you can’t find every shell at the start of the game. Certain shells spawn in specific areas you can reach only as you progress through the game, meaning many of the entries on this list will be withheld from you at the start of your journey. But for those who are curious to see what’s on offer further into the game, here are all the shells in Another Crab’s Treasure, their stats, where you can find them, and the names and effects of their unique abilities.
