Weird and interesting items but unfortunately unplayable

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.

If in the US don’t bother

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.

Wonderful Crane Game App

Great selection of Pokemon prizes

No no no

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

rigged.

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.

Trash

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

I’m surprised anyone has won

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

Not well made

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.

Crazy game

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

It took over a year but my prize finally arrived

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

Still haven’t received prize.

I won’t prizes dating back in March 2020 and I still haven’t received my prizes yet. SCAM!

Scam alert abusing pandemic

I won 3 prizes back in 08-18-2020 and have waited patiently for 3 weeks before inquiring about the shipping I requested. They provided the tracking and I have patiently waited for another 3 weeks. It’s now 12-25-2020 and I proceed to inquire what is going on. Their reason is I won be receiving any prizes before I have no prize won since August. This app is a scam. Do not download and waste your money.

$25 to ship any prizes, expensive to play

Three free plays when you first download, but none after you use them. You can’t get any free points to earn free plays either, every play costs $, around $3-4.50 per play.
There are no referral points or codes. No ads to watch.

If you win something, you have to ship it within two weeks by either paying over $50 usd or paying $25 usd for 5-6 plays (1900 pts) plus a shipping ticket. I’m not sure if the shipping ticket covers multiple prizes, you may have to repurchase that $25 each time you win something.

Amazing app

I don’t know why people are saying shipping is 50 dollars it’s 4000 cop without a free shipping ticket. But if you spend 25 dollars you get a free shipping ticket and credits and the main reason the prizes haven’t gotten here is because of COVID and there aren’t as many flights from Japan and us but this is one of the best online claw machine games there are.

Expensive shipping

You’re better off buying what you want. A single item costs around $50 USD to ship

Haven’t received prizes

Lately when I try to play the machines are either jammed up or never bother loading. The app also freezes up as well. Not sure if I recommend either due to how scammy the whole shipping process seems as well.

So I won two Pokémon plushies on 6-08 and 6-11. I made sure to get them shipped ASAP because
it always makes me excited when I win on apps like these. However the tracking number that shows for my prizes has no updates and “doesn’t exist in the system” yet when I try to search them. So I’m pretty sure they haven’t even been shipped yet. I understand with COVID there are delays but I have no luck getting updates from the staff. IMO don’t waste your time with this and stick with Toreba or something else.

Worst game ever

It does not give me my prizes and lags

Very fun!

For me, it was not as laggy as the other reviewers said. Not like, impossible to play, just a bit delayed. I love how you get 1 free play per day, because you could really win one of these great prizes without even wasting a dime. This has been my one problem: one time, a long time before the time actually ran out, and right when the claw was reaching down for the box, the app suddenly told me the time had run out and forced me out of my play. I never got to see if I had won. And again, the time had not run out, it was an error. It had also lagged more that usual that play.
