A downloadable game

In this little game we've created, you'll step into the shoes—or rather, the shell—of a carnival claw machine! Inspired by classic claw machines, your mission is to use the claw to catch as many balls as you can. I know, you probably think this sounds easy, but here the balls don't stay still—they rain down! So you'll have to be quick to win the prize! Do you have the reflexes and speed to be the number one claw machine? Prove it!


How to play

When you start the game, you'll appear on the start screen. From there, simply press the A button to begin the game.

Your task is simple, though not easy: grab as many balls as you can in 60 seconds and raise your score as high as possible! But be careful, because this claw has 3 lives, and not all falling balls are the same; there are different types with different effects.


  Solid balls: worth 100 points each.  

 Striped balls: worth 200 points each. 

Black balls: make you lose one heart and 500 points. If you have fewer than 500 points, you will be left with 0.



To catch them, you must move the hook around the screen and touch them with it. The controls are as follows:

  • Up: Moves the hook upwards.
  • Down: Moves the hook downwards.
  • Left: Moves the hook to the left.
  • Right: Moves the hook to the right.
