Quick Links
Another Crab’s Treasuretells the fun and challenging adventure of Kril as he tries to retrieve his shell underwater. However, since the game is in the soulslike genre, this won’t be an easy journey.
In this adventure, your weapon is a small but effective fork. However, you are not limited to fighting with just the fork; the game includes Umami abilities, which can be considered as magic. These include adaptations learned by defeating bosses and the abilities of your shells. If you want to use more Umami abilities, you need to find Old World Whorls.
What Are Old World Whorls Used For?
Shell abilities and adaptations are Umami abilities, and they consumea certain amount of Umami charge.Initially, you have a total of three charges. By finding Old World Whorls, you can obtainmore Umami charges:
The more you increase your Umami charges, the more you can use your adaptation and shell abilities accordingly. You can replenish your Umami chargesby standing on rotating purple mists,but they are not found everywhere. Additionally, since you regenerate Umami charges as you deal damage to enemies, the best method is to engage in combat.
Old World Whorls are generally found within oysters, although some may not be contained within them. By following the locations in this guide, you may find their exact locations.
Old World Whorls are not associated with any achievements, andyou can complete the game without collecting them.
