Why Clawfall

A classic artillery duel, rebuilt for quick matches with friends.

Destructible terrain

Every explosion carves the map. Dig tunnels, cut bridges and knock enemies into the sea.

22 weapons

Bazooka, homing missile, sticky grenade, napalm, laser, airstrike and a nuclear bomb, plus a grappling hook, jetpack and teleport.

Six sea creatures

Crab, turtle, hermit crab, octopus, shark and seahorse, each with its own health, attack, armour, speed and jump.

A new map every game

Four worlds and many layouts: open hills, caves, a crystal mine, sky islands, arenas and three handmade maps. Wind, mines, barrels, crates and a rising sea.

Play with friends

Create a room, send the code and play with up to 8 players, each for themselves or in teams. Open rooms are listed for anyone to join.

Bots and phones

Practise against bots on three difficulty levels. Play on a computer or a phone with touch controls.

Blow a hole in the hill

Tap anywhere on the hill: a grenade flies from your creature and carves a crater, the same way the ground breaks in the game.

Craters: 0

The arsenal

From the trusty bazooka to the nuclear bomb, with tools to cross the map: grappling hook, jetpack, teleport and drill. Crates drop more on the battlefield.
