Nintendo eShop Update: Another Crab’s Treasure, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

It’s another fun week for Switch owners, highlighted by Another Crab’s Treasure, which offers soulslike combat in a (presumably misleading) cute-looking package. You play as a hermit crab that uses its trash in its environment as shells, and it’s looking very promising.

Also this week is Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. We were a little lukewarm about it in our review, but if you’re an old-school JRPG fan, it’s probably worth checking out.

There are plenty of other games out this week on the Switch, too, so see the full list below and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list, here.

This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following content:

• Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch
  • Tales of Kenzera: ZAU – Embark on a poignant action-adventure game inspired by the rich myths of Bantu cultures. As Zau, you must face your own emotions to become a worthy Nganga, or spiritual healer, and reclaim your father’s spirit. Wield cosmic powers from the sun and moon and brave the beautiful and treacherous lands of Kenzera alongside the God of Death. Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is available now on the Nintendo Switch system.
  • Another Crab’s Treasure – Become a hermit crab and reclaim your prized shell in an epic treasure hunt across a polluted ocean! Wear the trash around you – cans, cardboard and whatever else you find – as shell-like armor to protect yourself against crabby foes and other threats lurking in the deep. Collect over 60 shells with distinct special abilities to defend yourself and improve your combat prowess with Adaptations learned from a variety of ocean creatures. Have a shell of a time when Another Crab’s Treasure washes ashore later today.
