About Just Crow Things
Just Crow Things is a level‑based sandbox adventure where you control a crow that can be dressed in hats, scarves, and other skins. The game offers ten distinct locations—including a French Riviera, Ancient Egypt, and New York—each filled with tasks that test skill, intellect, or pure silliness while you work toward higher Crowputation.
The experience encourages playful experimentation: you can pick up tools such as a leaf‑blower, graffiti can, or blow torch, and you can discover a variety of “poop modes” like glitter bombs or spicy poops. Optional side challenges add hidden costume hunts, racing trials, and a Sandbox Mode that lets you spawn tools at will.

Tools and Objects
Throughout the game you can pick up a variety of tools, including a leaf‑blower that can push characters, a graffiti can for marking territory, and a blow torch that can warm people up. Each tool has a distinct function that can be applied to tasks or creative chaos.
Sandbox Mode expands this system by letting you spawn all sorts of tools of mayhem. This freedom encourages you to experiment with tool combinations and design your own challenges without preset objectives.

Making new animal friends and helping them out is central to building your Crowputation, a trust metric that grows as you complete tasks. Each successful interaction nudges the metric upward, reflecting your reputation among the animal community.
Tasks range from simple assistance to more elaborate challenges, offering multiple pathways to increase Crowputation. As the metric rises, you move closer to the goal of becoming the “coolest bird in town.”
- Prioritize tasks that involve direct help to animals for quicker Crowputation gains.
- Observe which tools elicit positive responses from specific animals to plan efficient assistance.

In Sandbox Mode you can spawn all sorts of tools at will, allowing you to design chaotic scenarios without preset objectives. This mode emphasizes unrestricted experimentation with the game’s quirky mechanics.
- Try different poop modes on the same target to see how reactions vary.
- Combine a leaf‑blower with glitter poop for a striking visual display.
