You were once a generous claw machine arcade owner famous for your player-friendly machines. Now, you become bankrupt due to your kindness... Left with only a single claw machine in your uncle's garage, you chose to transform into a cunning entrepreneur!
Build Your Arcade
Design and customize your arcade with unique claw machines, furniture, posters, and decorations. Mix and match machines and furniture to find out the perfect combo to boost your arcade’s popularity and comfort to attract more players!
Play Action Cards Use action cards inspired by real-life tricks to outwit your players! Weaken or tilting claws, activating magnets… every card gives you an edge. But beware that some cards will damage your machines or hurt your arcade’s rating. Use them wisely!
Challenge Arcades
Challenge neighboring arcades to increase arcade ranks and unlock new features. Outsmart opponent owners by stopping them from winning your prizes, or send your players to raid their arcades instead. Beat the arcades to get rewards and expand your arcade!
