The Crab Game is a cultural phenomenon. One of the most buggy games on Steam, full of exploits and hackers.
But still, it’s a remarkably fun game that peaked at over 56,000 concurrent players. Quite a feat. Especially considering its creator. Dani is a part-time developer.
Out of the success of its launch came an outcry over the cosmetics, as all players looked exactly the same.
Months after the launch, different varieties of cosmetics were added, from hats to footwear.
Dani saw fit to please the community and add rarities to these items. Some cosmetic items are naturally rarer than others, but they can also come in shiny forms.
I will review the 10 rarest and most expensive items in Crab Game. Just remember, prices are set by players, so the most expensive items aren’t technically the rarest.
Basic items will be given as these are quite rare, but obviously their shiny forms will be even rarer!
10) Cutting Bowl
store price: $270
As horrible as a bowl cut is in real life, Crab Game makes it an extra special piece of helmet that you can get your hands on. The sillier your character, the better!
The black hair color variant is the most expensive at the moment.
9) Dani’s special
store price: $333
Surprisingly rare and commanding a mass market price is the Dani Special, one of the most exclusive cosmetic items in Crab Game.
It’s just a mask and sunglasses but we all know how much Dani loves her sunglasses.
8) YIKE Brick
store price: $113
It is a brick that you carry in your head. Yeah, it’s not physics based at all and even has the word “brick” plastered on the side.
I’m not sure why this exists, but it’s a rare legendary item that looks amazing when it shines.
7) Gas mask
store price: $55
One of the cheapest legendary items, gas masks are still a very rare legendary cosmetic item.
It covers the entire face, eliminating the ability to show manly facial hair, which probably explains the lack of customers in the market.
6) high top sneakers
store price: $60
By far the most attractive footwear you can get, but not the rarest. Soaring sneakers have cool wings coming out of their sole.
The shiny variant is particularly impressive, but this is one of the most expensive basic items in the entire game.
5) Brilliant 0.5 Yakuza
store price: $300
Triumph hair. Absolutely amazing, a must have for any Crab Game enthusiast. There is only one shiny variant available, making it one of the rarest hair you can get!
4) YIKE lucky hat
store price: $85
There is no such thing as a shiny YIKE Lucky Hat, it’s just the base version that comes in a light blue color.
Few items are as exclusive as this one, you will surely stand out from the rest.
That said, it doesn’t come with any glitter, so there are a few more that are a bit shinier.
3) Shiny 1.0 Ground Force 2
store price: $100
Few shiny shoes are as rare as the Ground Force 2 shoes, and the basic variant is pretty common for a Legendary.
It seems that at this time, there are few glitters for players to obtain.
The shoes themselves are fairly standard, which explains why they are highly sought after, with many players preferring a more traditional look style.
2) Bright Headphones 0.9
store price: $650
There are plenty of headphones out there for as little as $1, but this particular version is incredibly rare, starting at a whopping price tag.
Only 1 Shiny 0.9 headset is available on the market, so we can deduce that it is probably one of the rarest, if not the rarest, in the game.
It looks amazing, but another cosmetic item is even more expensive.
1) Shiny Gold Fedora
store price: $893
By far the most expensive item in the game (some items are listed as more expensive, but that’s just player nonsense).
Felt hats are the perfect symbol of online gaming, and a gold version should be thought of as a crown.
We don’t know the exact odds of getting this item, but there are only 3 of them on the market!
It is surely the rarest and most expensive cosmetic item in Crab Game.
