#THE CRAB GAME INSTALL#
Dani released the game on Steam, so you can skip to the “Get Steam” part and install it like a normal game. Whatever you choose, back up the things that you wanna keep because they’ll be wiped. You can also use traditional methods of external storage like SD cards, USB drives, or external HDDs. With Chromebooks, you can easily backup your files to Google Drive by dragging and dropping them into the file directory on the menu. Once you have it installed, you can play a variety of other games that may pique your interest.Ĭreate a backup of your important data because the next step will delete everything on your disk. The idea is to use Linux instead of ChromeOS. The game will likely stutter or crash.īut over time, if the game gets improved, it should be compatible with more Chromebooks.Įven if you can’t get it working, there are other games you can play once you go through the steps. Remember to not expect everything to run smoothly. Here are the steps to install Crab Game on ChromeOS. I did include a section following these steps that you can try as an alternative if this doesn’t work for you. The game is poorly optimized at the time of this writing, so you should expect game crashes, freezing, poor performance, and other glitches. Please note that this is NOT going to work on all Chromebooks. Here are the steps to download, install, and play Crab Game. Okay, so you’re ready to play some Red Light, Green Light on your Chromebook.

Unless you’re one of the few with a Samsung Pro, you probably won’t get that buttery-smooth gameplay. So yeah, don’t think that the gameplay will be a smooth 30FPS. Looking at the recommended requirements, Chromebooks don’t even come close: While Chromebooks have an integrated GPU, it’s not nearly powerful enough to render gameplay fr most models. The GPU recommended by the developer is integrated, not dedicated. Only a few models have Core i3 or higher. Most Chromebooks are only equipped with a Celeron CPU. This is why the game runs so poorly, as it already does on Windows. So this throws 99% of Chromebooks out the window already. On a Chromebook, the majority don’t meet the CPU, GPU, shader requirements. Here are the system requirements for Crab Game. There are people who are playing Crab Game on their Chromebooks with no issue, as you can see here:īut just because a few people got it working doesn’t mean everyone can. While it’s possible, it’ll probably run the game very poorly.Įxpect lag, game crashing, or other technical issues as the game gets developed. If you have a powerful Chromebook with a decent CPU/RAM, you may be able to pull it off.Īlso, even if your Chromebook can run Crab Game, it still may crash due to other issues (server connections, glitches, FPS, etc.).

While it’s technically possible, it’s not smooth. Most people will get a crappy, laggy experience, so don’t get your hopes up. Since it’s poorly optimized for its home system (Windows), it performs even worse on ChromeOS. Yes, Crab Game can be installed on Chromebooks, but don’t expect it to be easy.īefore you dive into a round of Tag, you should know that not all CBs can run it.

You can play online with friends in this all-out crazy game based on the popular Squid Game.
