Crab Statue

The Crab Statue is one of 42 statues introduced in the 1.1 update. It can be found randomly in underground caverns, and may be harvested with a hammer. When activated, it spawns a crab. The statue will not spawn a crab if there are 10 or more crabs anywhere in the world, 6 or more crabs within 800 pixels, or 3 or more crabs within 300 pixels.

Tips

 * If it is used so that the crab is trapped jumping on a pressure pad then you can have a "Crab Engine". A three crab engine is the fastest timer in the game, even faster than a "bird engine", although if you use less than three crabs, the bird engine will be slightly faster.
