A rather fun time to be had – TokyoCatch Claw Machine Review

Honestly, Claw/Crane games are my jam and I love a good challenge when I see one. I think the most important thing to note is to make sure you know when to walk away. The UI was confusing at first, and I wish they gave a tutorial on the fact you need to press and hold the buttons, but once you get it, it’s pretty fun! I’ve won 2 prizes so far and I’m kind of shocked, but the reason I don’t give it 5 stars is only due to 2 things: Not much variety—I’m not an anime fan, but I love Sanrio, Pokèmon, and I love the plushes that are in Japan. There are a lot of figurines and some cool water bottles, but I’m really all about the large plushies. This is my first week with the game, so I think that if I wait there’ll be more choices, but I’m really hoping and looking forward to more Sanrio plushies. The second thing is the pricing of the gems. I’m so grateful for the free play February that’s going on, but if you’re like me, and you’re in focus mode and you KNOW you’re one or two plays away, it’s rather pricy to pay for the gem packs. I do however have to note the free shipping from the company as a plus/bonus—that was surprisingly nice to see as I was expecting it was going to be SUPER expensive. I do also appreciate the fact they have a hold for I believe 60 days on a prize? That was wonderful to see as well. I think it’s be nice to see future deals on gems or watching gems/offers maybe that aren’t too out of grasp for players to get some gems, or Lower the price for machines with smaller prizes to half the 120 gem per run. Either way, with those two being the only things I have impressions on, as I know the nature of the claw is a cruel and at times forgiving mistress, snipers for prizes are a thing as are “rigged” machines. I do believe that there are none here, and that in fact it’s just practice and good internet connection to get the most optimal experience (as physically playing is the best you can get, and I HIGHLY recommend you try a machine!)
