This place was the perfect place to test your claw skill. The claws are not easy to win, but also not impossible etheir which makes them almost more rewarding when you do win. (Definitely not rigged machines though) Another cool feature is you can swap out your multiple small pushies for bigger ones. Staff was friendly. All the machine's were well stocked, and employees stock them regularly by the looks of it. (Tip dont give up the moment some fall out of the claw, and dont alway have the claw perfectly centered over what your going for)

Stopped by while shopping because the bright claw machines instantly caught my attention. The arcade has a decent number of machines and the overall space feels clean and organized, which makes it a fun quick stop if you want a little entertainment break during your mall visit. However, the plush dolls in most machines were honestly a bit underwhelming. Many of them looked low-quality and not as cute or vibrant as you would expect from a modern claw arcade. They felt somewhat generic and didn’t really create that strong “must-play” excitement when you first walk in. That said, I did notice a few blind-box style collectible machines with branded mini figures and cute character boxes — those were definitely the highlight. The designs looked more premium and visually appealing, and I could see collectors or younger players enjoying those much more. Pricing seemed reasonable compared to similar arcade spots, so it’s still a fun casual stop if you’re already in the mall. Overall, this place has potential, but upgrading the prize quality and creating a more immersive, eye-catching vibe could really elevate the experience.

Lots of fun! The staff was very friendly and even offered to help my daughter by placing the prizes in positions that made it easier to win! Looking forward to coming back!

I had a bad opinion at first because I really felt as if it was rigged, but I was blown away because a fellow shopper there was obliterating every single machine and giving me great tips which just showed me that I needed to lock in and hone my skills. I ended up getting a small keychain and she gave me a plushie because she felt bad I didn’t win anything else lol. I now know this place isn’t rigged and the staff are also very friendly :)
