Claw Craze
Claw Craze brings the arcade claw machine to your browser. A glass cabinet full of soft plush toys glows in front of you: slide the claw left and right, tap Drop, and the claw falls on its cable, closes its prongs and tries to lift a toy out of the pile. If it holds on, it swings back over the chute and your prize pops out of the door. Every toy is our own design, from a bunny and a bear cub to a strawberry, a ghost, a donut and a golden unicorn.
Nothing is faked. The toys are real physics bodies that rest in a pile, tumble over each other and roll away when the claw pushes into them. How well the claw holds depends on where it touched the toy, how far its finger tips got under it, how big it is, whether other toys lie on top and how strong the machine's claw is. The game shows the result honestly as a grip percentage, and that is exactly the chance that the toy makes it to the chute. Sometimes it slips, sometimes a falling toy knocks a lucky bonus prize into the chute.
Six machines open as your album grows: Meadow Pals, Fruit Stand, Capsule Cosmos with surprise capsule toys, Monster Mash, Sweet Shelf with a moving prize shelf and the Golden Dream. Each has its own toy set, cabinet look and claw: a three-prong claw, a long two-prong claw or a mini claw. Collect all 48 toys in common, rare and epic rarity, turn duplicates into coins and earn a reward for every completed set. There are no ads and no real money: coins come from prizes, a daily bonus and free plays that refill over time, and the daily machine gives everyone the same cabinet with ten tries for the leaderboard.
How to play
- Pick a machine and press Free play (or pay its coins) to start.
- Move the claw with the arrow buttons, by dragging over the cabinet or with the arrow keys. Wait for the claw to stop swinging.
- Press Drop. The claw falls until it rests on a toy, then closes. Aim at the middle of a toy near the top of the pile for the best grip.
- Watch the grip percentage: that is the chance the toy stays in the claw all the way to the chute. Prizes go into your album.
- Collect toys to open new machines, complete sets for bonus coins, claim the daily bonus and try the daily machine once a day.
