Claw Grabber

Claw Grabber is an arcade claw-machine game on the thank-you page. The customer positions the claw and drops it — a strong grip carries the prize to the chute for a win, a weak grip lets it slip. It’s one of the Giveaway Lottery instant-win mini-games.

Requires: WooCommerce and the free Giveaway Lottery plugin (Pro for auto-generated numbers and full prize delivery). See Instant Win Games — Shared Setup for the complete setup process; this page covers what’s unique to Claw Grabber.

The Game

  • Each purchased ticket is one play.
  • The customer moves the claw left/right and presses DROP.
  • Win: the claw grips the prize and delivers it to the chute.
  • Loss: the grip is weak and the prize slips back into the pit.

Pro tip: Fill the pit icons with items that match your prizes (e.g. gift boxes, gadgets) so the machine visually reinforces what customers are playing for.
