Play Claw Crane Chaos

Grab it, swing it, cage it. Clock's ticking.

Free on iPhone in the Roam app. Android coming soon.

Claw Crane Chaos turns the claw machine game into a race against the clock, and you play it in the Roam app on iPhone. A ship's deck is crawling with colorful critters, the cages are waiting and your shift has a timer of 1:40. Steer the claw, drop it to grab a critter and swing it into the cage of the same color. Hit the cash target for the shift before time runs out.

How to work a shift

Drag the stick to move the claw over the deck.
Tap DROP to grab a critter.
Carry it to the cage that matches its color.
Tap SURGE to speed up when time gets tight.
Reach the cash target, like $260, before the shift ends.

What makes it fun

A claw machine game that is not about luck

The arcade claw is famous for slipping. Here the claw does its job. The challenge is speed and sorting. You have a deck full of critters, cages in different colors and a clock that started before you were ready. Every grab is a small decision: which one is closest, and which cage is it going to?

That makes it part arcade game and part sorting game. You win by planning routes, not by hoping the claw holds.

Each shift ends with a tally. Beat the target and you move on to the next shift, with more critters and the same ticking clock. The ship deck, the cable crane and the toon critters give it a cheerful look even when time is almost up.

Tips for hitting the target

Grab the critter closest to its cage first. Short trips add up fast. Do not chase one far-off critter while three easy ones sit near the cages. Save SURGE for the last stretch of the shift, when every second counts. The title text stays up for a few seconds at the start, but the clock is already running, so start moving right away.

Who will love it

Anyone who loves claw machines, quick timed puzzles or cute critters. Shifts are short, so it is easy to play one more.
