This fish came out of nowhere and I had no idea why it’s now following me, but this is a PSA for Another Crab’s Treasure players that you can get a pet fish!
Yes, you can pet your pet fish in Another Crab’s Treasure
While playing through the main story of this colorful underwater Soulslike, I visited the Enchanted Grove and came across a mini-boss named Diseased Lichenthrope. Sometime after I had beaten the difficult creature, a tiny fish began to follow me. I was dumbfounded since there was no lead-up to meeting this fish and I still have no idea whether I’m supposed to bring them somewhere.
Nevertheless, this is a PSA for anyone player Another Crab’s Treasure to beat the Diseased Lichenthrope so you can get a pet fish. Wherever I go, they go, and if they disappear for some reason they’ll return to me when I enter and exit a Moon Snail Shell.
Not only can you pet the lil’ guy, but they’ll also help fight enemies alongside you. If you notice that your fish isn’t around you, they’re probably attacking a nearby enemy. They don’t hit very hard, but I don’t mind. If I end up needing to drop this fish off somewhere I will be upset at having to leave them, but so far after playing another hour of Another Crab’s Treasure, they’re still by my side.
You’ll get the chance to explore the Enchanted Grove once you reach New Carcinia and reach the point in the story where you’re on a hunt to find buried treasure. The treasure is in this Enchanted Grove somewhere, so it seems like the Diseased Lichenthrope is a non-missable mini-boss.
Nevertheless, it’s nice to see a surprise like this pop up in a game where I thought I was going to be on this adventure alone. Now I can turn to my fish at any point and pet them! Other than this cute pet, you can acquire or hire Stowaways to buff yourself for future fights.
