Shrimp is a clicker game centered on accumulating shrimp through repeated taps, with the ability to trade items on Steam's marketplace. The game's minimal mechanics and focus on marketplace transactions have drawn criticism from players who view it as a monetization scheme rather than substantive gameplay. It appeals primarily to those interested in Steam inventory speculation rather than traditional game experiences.

A low effort clicker game in a long line of them all about Steam inventory items to make money with no over-sight for poor gaymers.
Shrimp is another disgusting clicker scam game like "banana". Effectively a blockchain/NFT game, but abusing the Steam Marketplace instead of some other blockchain/wallet system... the end result is the same, this isn't a real game, it's just dumped on Steam to scam PC gamers through the Steam Marketplace. It has no value as a serious game, you just click stuff in the hopes an "NFT" marketplace item drops so the developer can get paid for the sale... and of course so the developer can sell ones that he's farmed up himself.
So while this looks "free", it's only superficial. The real purpose for this game is for the developer to farm and exploit Steam Inventory items that drop through the game. They can then sell these items in bulk on the Steam Community Marketplace. This kind of Steam abuse, combined with a minimum-viable-product non-game, does no service to gamers whatsoever.
This is pollution... it's harmful to everyone. It hurts genuine indie devs, who have to compete with this pollution to get visibility for their sincerely made games. It makes indie devs look bad. It makes it harder for gamers to find those genuinely made games. It's designed to prey on gamers and manipulate the Steam Community Marketplace to the detriment of all.
