Depending on what you got I would expect some to make it. Over the years had this happen a few times when heat packs were used and should not have been. Usually crabs do ok, snails are toast.

All of the crabs are doa and look like dead spiders
The snails mostly have their feet dangling but we’re giving the college effort

Maybe 5 moved… all crabs are confirmed doa…
This is basically a total loss
I recorded video of temp and status when opening box
I took photos
I acclimated and put in tank despite not wanting to
Refund is going to take days to even begin to properly process bc, there is still a chance…
There are certain vendors we have to learn not to use the hard way I guess

I’ve had this happen before. It’s not always the vendors fault. I had an order that was in shipping for over a week and you could tell the condition just by smell. I put the ones that I was sure were alive in the tank, questionable ones in a bucket and dead ones in the trash. Even though it was a shipping delay, the vendor took care of all of it.
