Ahoy there me hearties! It’s me again, yer friendly app pirate back from an exciting adventure around the seven seas. I remember when I was a little lad, me and me friends would always go in arcades. We even skipped school at times and went home late ‘cause this bucko enjoyed playing so much. Me mama would always get mad at me naughty boy. Har, har, har! Me found this app that reminded me of me childhood. ‘Tis called Clawbert by HyperBeard and I will share it with ye me maties in this review.
It’s a Casual Game
This game doesn’t have a background story, missions, achievements, or challenges. It’s a casual game that you can pick up and stop playing anytime. If you are familiar about the arcade game claw crane or also known as claw machine and teddy picker, this is that game only made into an app. You have the same goal of trying to catch an item by positioning the claw on the right spot, hoping that you will get an item. In this app, the items are in the form of eggs, so there’s an element of surprise. You won’t know what you will get until an egg is picked and cracked to reveal the item.
Cute Graphics
This app is a winner in the graphics department. The developers nailed the graphics of the game as the items are cute. They are an eye-candy, which adds to its appeal. The claw can be decorated and there are also hundreds of different items to catch, which all look adorable.
Can Get Boring in the Long Run
The real claw machine game played in arcades will give you real items so you might get addicted since you will really get something from it. However, since this is just an app, the items that you will get will be added to your collection, which is on the app too. Adults may not find this interesting for a long time, since it can be repetitive. Kids on the other hand may have fun playing this even for an extended period because of the variety of items that they can collect, even though it’s just in the app.
The Ups
It’s a free game that you can play on your device without spending anything. Although it comes with in-app purchased, it’s up to you if you wish to purchase anything or not. You can continue playing the game without spending real money. The graphics of the game is cute. This adds to the fun and appeal of the game.
The Downs
It’s more for kids. Although adults may find it fun to play, it’s not something that you will probably keep on playing constantly for a long time as it appeals more to children. There are also advertisements that can affect the overall playing experience.
The Verdict
If you have a child that you want to keep occupied, this is a nice game option to add on your device. It’s free and it has great graphics that kids will love. You may also find it enjoyable, especially if you are into claw machine games when you were a kid.
