How to win prizes from a claw machine
Article:
This pandemic has really changed the way we do everything – from working in our offices down to enjoying our free time. It has caused us a lot and has also limited our options on what we can enjoy daily. The same can be said about gaming.
Though gaming has slowly changed its course towards mobile avenues, there are still some sources of amusement that remain solid with actual live fun. An example is the claw machine. Which got us asking, are claw machine mobile apps the thing of the future during this pandemic?
Claw machines are a type of merchandiser – games that offer merchandise to players as a form of reward after overcoming the game. But since the pandemic has banned us from leaving our homes and actually going to an arcade, a lot of gaming merchants turn their eyes towards creating mobile apps simulating the exact same game. But is it really the same feeling?
Well, we have to distinguish how it does things first. Firstly, there are those games that actually give you the ability to control a real claw machine right at your fingertips. Once you win, you have the option to have your prize delivered to your doorstep. Then there are those who only provide a simulation and prizes depend on how many points you get per machine.
One could argue that the first type of machine is more applicable to the pandemic because it offers the same thrill of using an actual machine but like in the real world, you are queued so you take turns with other users online. The second option is more free-willed but it has less thrilling prizes compared to the first option.
Regardless, claw machine apps are now becoming a thing, with more than 500,000 plus users (according to an app’s statistics on Google Play Store). And with regards to the question if this is the next big thing in this pandemic. We say, YES! Lot’s of arcade games are now being converted into mobile apps so why not the claw machine? Think about it.
