TOKYO CLAW MACHINE is the online crane game to get prizes by using real online claw machines.
There are various prizes which gamer green or toreba don't have, such as Japanese core fans’ unpacked second-hand prizes, new prizes only for the crane game, accessories and sweets.
We prepared the largest item numbers by using dummies, not the real prizes in the crane game.
The number of play limit is set for each prize. If you reach the limit, you can get the prize for sure.
There are several ways of playing the game. Choose the way of playing you want and get prizes.
You can order to deliver the prizes you got free of charge by using a delivery free ticket.

1. Use a sort function or a keyword search to find your favorite prize to play the crane game!
2. Select a prize and decide how to play!
3. Move a crane with buttons while watching the crane on a video screen.
4. Enjoy the game to win your prize! You failed? Don’t be sad! You can still get the prize if you have reached your limit for the number of plays for the prize!
5. After you get a prize, the prize will be delivered to your home! If you use a delivery free ticket, the prize will be shipped free of charge!
6. You can get free play tickets with a log-in bonus or for some events!

■ Notice ■
In the game, we distribute the video and operate crane game machines in real time.
If your internet connection is not stable, some failures might occur, such as the video doesn’t appear, you cannot make a reservation, or the operation of the crane game machine might be slower.

### 1/5 — Weird and interesting items but unfortunately unplayable

*2024-01-06*

Pros:

1 - This has stuff you won’t find in literally any other app. Tons of weird items like cat treats and a replica of that mouth you stick your hand in to detect lies. It’s like a mini Don Quixote in your pocket. 

2 - They offer free shipping tickets after a purchase of 25 bucks. 

3 - Crazy selection of Pokémon stuff. Seriously. If you like Pokémon, this is the app for you. 

Cons:

1 - On my phone, there’s no search function. You have to rely on the categories to narrow it down. Unlike most, however, it’s incredibly poorly sorted. Baby toys are in the same “hobby” category as, erm, adult clothing, as an example. 

2 - the “free tickets” are, as far as I can tell, useless. Nothing accepts them. It’s also expensive. $25 might get you four to five plays. For a machine you can’t test with a free ticket, that’s exorbitant. 

3 - The major negative. It’s almost never actually open. They supposedly have hours of operation, but good luck figuring out when. Either it’s “closed” or it’s stuck in “prepping now” for a week and a half. The last news blurb says it’s open from 3 PM to 3AM, but it’s… not. At least not JST or CST. Very strange. 

4 - Support doesn’t exist. I asked a question, and two weeks later they answered by saying the ticket was closed. Very frustrating. 

Bottom line: amazingly weird stuff, but it might as well be a museum. One star.

### 1/5 — If in the US don’t bother

*2023-12-08*

It looks fun but due to the hours the games are open, if you’re in the US it will be very hard to catch them open as it’s after midnight (central) when they are supposed to be open. I really wanted to play but it just don’t work for our time zone.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Crane Game App

*2023-09-15*

Great selection of Pokemon prizes

### 1/5 — No no no

*2023-06-12*

This game is a scam and you have to pay money just to play the game and it says it’s free when it’s not And the machines are so glitchy and the prices never go to you it’s a scam

### 1/5 — rigged.

*2023-03-14*

as someone who has previously won a prize, let me tell you. they made it so you need to win 2 prizes before you can use your delivery ticket. imagine how much money you need to win 2 prizes in a month and then you have a leftover delivery tickets yet again.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2022-03-23, version 1.1.5*

Played daily for about 6 months. Weak claws and impossible setups.

### 1/5 — I’m surprised anyone has won

*2021-12-21, version 1.1.5*

Because it’s basically impossible. Super glitchy, and not made to win, even with the “shipping” prices.

### 1/5 — Not well made

*2021-10-13, version 1.1.5*

It’s lags so much you can’t even play. You have 14 days to claim your prize but some don’t ship unless you have more than 1 prize. If you can’t win another prize within the 14 days, you forfeit the first one.

### 1/5 — Crazy game

*2021-08-13, version 1.1.5*

I was trying to play one of the claw machines and it completely lagged so bad

### 5/5 — It took over a year but my prize finally arrived

*2021-06-08, version 1.1.5*

It takes a while, but it will eventually get to you! Please be patient!
