It was a fun experience with my little brother at the spot. I like the puppachino that I won. But most of all, the worker was nice enough to let my brother trade in 3 plushies instead of 4 for a hazard because he wanted it so bad. So thank you to her. read more

May as well be a scam. Don't waste your time or money. You got better chances playing a claw machine at a local grocery store and that's sad. After reading other reviews, its clear they rigged the machines to pay out a lot less often (if ever lol). Several months back you could actually win something spending $10-$20. Guessing the owners felt they were losing $ or something? So they increased the prices and made it harder to win? read more

Wow I can't believe it got even MORE expensive. So now this place is two dollars purple that's insane. I spent $50 and didn't win anything once again a huge rip off waste of money save your time and stay away. read more

I had a terrible experience at Extreme Claw in Sacramento, at the Arden malll. We spent $20 on tokens, and the claw was so weak it couldn't even lift a single teddy bear. Honestly, it was a complete letdown. To top it off, the guy working there was kind of iffy--I would avoid this place at all costs. read more

This place is rigged. Every play we would pick up a plush just for the claw to swing wildly and drop the plush before it got to the drop spot. Weird that the claw doesn't swing at all until after you pick something up... Just take your money and go buy a plush. The odds are zero that you'll be taking anything home from here. read more

Our family hasn't been here in a while because it started feeling scammy. Decided to give it another shot in the off-chance that they could have changed. Sad to say that they did change, but for the worse! The prices have basically doubled with it being 2 tokens (dollars) per play and it also seems like the machines are a lot more rigged for less payouts than before. I don't know what happened to this place. We used to be able to go in with $20 and leave with anywhere from 5-10 prizes. Now you're lucky if you're able to leave the store with 1! Truly sad that this location has become so greedy. We definitely will not be coming back and we also recommend that you all steer away from here as well! read more

They increased the prices as it was $20 for 22 plays now it's $20 for 16 plays (32 tokens) as they increased it to 2 tokens per play. It's way more fair compared to round one but disappointed in the price increase. read more

What a cool arcade for children of all ages! We attended a Santa pajama event nearby and were instantly intrigued by all the lights and toys. This new claw arcade is located near the elevators and main entrance. As soon as we enter the arcade, you'll see everyone having fun. Make your way to the back where the cash register is to purchase tokens. The employee was very nice and helpful. There are a variety of claw machines to play, our 2yr old was able to play with ease and even won a prize toy! Pricing seems reasonable and the claw machines have some fantastic prizes. So much fun. Check them out the next time you visit Arden mall. read more

Love coming here to pass time! Came for their St. Patrick's special and got 58 tokens for $50 plus a free Hello Kitty plush. They had the Hello Kitty dumpling series and I was able to win all of them :) so $50 later, I won everything in my photo plus a Pokemon trade-in (Bidoof) that didn't make the cut for my Sanrio pic haha. You can easily trade plushies for another within the same machine, so just be sure to go for the easy picks rather than selecting for a specific character. You can also trade up for larger plushies at the counter valued anywhere from like 3-12 smaller plushies. I just wish they kept their website/IG updated with the plushies they have in their machines & available for trade ups on a rotating basis. They seemed to be really good about posting weekly on their IG stories last year, but don't really post as frequently anymore. read more

Xtreme Claw - My wins from yesterday hehe. - Arcades Near Me - Sacramento, California

Honestly we had a blast! The prices and the payouts/winning rates were fair IMO. At this claw game arcade, it's 1 token per play, but if you spend $20 or more they give you extra tokens. We spent $60 and won 8 plushies in about 45 mins. Would totally come back again! read more

Cute little claw arcade. Unfortunately the claws wiggle a lot so it's not easy to win even if the claws grab the stuffed toys.

Friends wanted to go, therefore I was here. Spoiler alert, I am absolutely horrendous with crane games. If you never played a claw game, that is a good thing. These games can become addicting as Vegas slots. Take care of your wallet and set yourself a hard limit. It can be frustrating if you don't win anything. So try not to fall into an endless pit of tries. That being side, if your lucky you will win. If your not, it may become costly. If you go for fun with a set budget you'll be fine. The toys offered here are nothing too special. There is a lot of Sanrio, Pokémon, and popular series to choose from but the arcade itself is quite small. They only have crane type games. The staff is friendly and will assist if you have questions or issues. Good way to kill time and burn spare change. read more

I spent twenty dollars trying to win a plush and the machine is clearly rigged. The claw grabs the plush with a strong grip but then hits the roof of the machine and makes it drop every single time. It is designed so you cannot win. Months ago you could win a plush with six to ten dollars, but here it feels impossible no matter how much you spend. It is cheap and frustrating. Save your money and just buy the plush somewhere else. read more

I've never seen claw machines so obviously rigged to prevent a child from winning prizes - will never go back

Mark and Janna were amazing!! Great customer service!! The kids had so much fun!! Will come back with my niece and nephew!! read more

I love this little hidden gem in the Arden Fair mall! The claws wiggle a lot when playing but that's the rush of playing claw machines. Their prices are affordable and my kids always walk out with list of toys or trade ups and smiles on their faces. It's always a good time when we're there! I really appreciate how accommodating the employees are; they're always willing to swap out our wins and help out the kids. read more

In theory, the store is super fun with good quality toys that are desirable for children and grown-ups who are still children at heart. It's one dollar a token, with most of the machines costing two tokens for one play. The more you buy the better the deal for the tokens ($20 for 32 tokens, $50 for 90 tokens. The problem is that their claws are very loose and we captured so many toys only to have them fall out of the claw because it jerked so much before it got to the dispenser area. Some claws were too small for the items in the machine and others had claws too big for the small toys inside. I asked the really nice worker what odds they set their machines to, and she said 1/20 odds. It didn't feel that way. My child was incredibly frustrated by the time we left, and was bitter and upset to leave with the toy that he ended up getting. Overall, the experience was not a positive one and we spent more money than I wanted to because the experience was so frustrating and stressful for my kid. We won't be coming back. read more

I'll start by saying this place used to be great initially. Not sure what happened but the last few times we came they don't stock the machines up anymore and they have prizes so big the claw can't even pick it up. Hoping things change as we used to have a ton of fun here. Trade ups are always pretty cool, decent options. read more

It's a cute place. They had a few machine. We didn't win much but we had fun. Last time we were here we won a lot more prizes

Took my daughter and three of her friends here. We went through 141 tokens and ended up with about 10 small prizes. The kids had a great time, which was the main goal, but as others have mentioned, the machines are definitely set up to make winning difficult. For the amount of money spent, the prizes don't really feel worth it. Overall, it was a fun experience for the kids, but I don't think I'd return to this location. read more

Actually won so many plushies! They are super cute and the place looks super clean! Staff is really nice! read more

Xtreme Claw - Actually won so many plushies - Arcades Near Me - Sacramento, California

Awesome experience! Just left a few minutes ago with a handful of plush toys. It's my daughters birthday tomorrow and she's into claw machines. We decided to try out the one in Arden mall as she had tried some machines in Round 1 in Roseville. The manager and employees were great! Their customer service is top notch. When the manager noticed her "9th" birthday balloon she kindly asked if it is her birthday. My daughter said her birthday is tomorrow and that today is picture day. The manager gave her 5 additional tokens to play with. This place is going to be a go to for claw machines. Thank you Xtreme Claw Team for a pleasant experience! read more

Xtreme Claw - My daughter with her prizes. - Arcades Near Me - Sacramento, California

Pros: staff very friendly Cons: win rate 1:13. We play a lot or crane games and usually get 1 in 5 or 1 in 7. Prizes were decent quality but goal was to trade in 6, 9, 12 littles for big prizes. We saw people winning at a better rate than us initially like 1:3 or 1:5 but seemed longer you stay, worse odds. read more

We had a blast! Caitlin was the best!! We got the whole wicked collection!! Thank you Caitlin!! We appreciate you

Awesome place fun for the kids so many claw games from hello kitty to little ducks dressed up .

This is a small claw machine area for kids. Place to kill some time, wished it was bigger

So much fun! We like to come here and spend a couple of dollars when we come to the mall. Sometimes we win something, sometimes we loose. It's a good time to read more

The claws were very difficult to win, they probably have the difficulty turned up pretty high. We spent a good amount of money and we were only able to get 4 things. At other claw places I have gotten 12 plushies for the same price. The employees were also not very attentive, they were on their phones the entire time and we had to ask for a bag. We also asked for one plushie to be moved in the machine which is pretty standard at these places and he acted like that was difficult. They never greeted us when we walked in but welcomed the next couple that came in behind us. I will say one good thing is the plushies are a little more higher end than the usual claw place. I think with a few small fixes this place can really be great. read more

Agree with all the recent reviews..the business owner has gotten greedy. What a shame. The claws are not picking anything up! Constantly bringing the toy to the top and then drops it. Save your money and avoid this place! read more

Third trip here with the grandkids, spent $40 on tokens and could not win anything. The claws were so loose they could not lift anything. Save your money, the machines are not the same as they were for our first visit (we left with 12 stuffies then). read more

Where to even start, this new claw spot is one of the finest examples of customer service + entertaining experience. My kids went to town on the claw machines, and they ended up winning big multiple times. We left with 3 large bags worth of plushies. What I like about this place is that the staff right off the bat is super friendly, and because it was memorial day they gave everyone a free pin. The staff is also willing to give you tips and strategy to help you win, and they tend to rearrange the machines to give you favorable chances at winning. Another cool thing that they offer is a trading system, so you can take multiple plushies and trade them up, trade them for interesting items like bags and backpacks, or do a 1 for 1 trade if you think the thing in the glass display is cooler you can trade a plush for it. Overall this is one of the best things to come to the Arden Fair Mall, and I would suggest any fan of claw machines to give this place your business, they will definitely have us returning in the future. read more

Even if you feel you are good at these games, you might not want to go here. Ofc all these pack prizes well. But for the ones that did have "good targets" the claw would collapse and not grab it right when you landed on it. One buck per game. But goes fast when it's set up to loose. Good luck! read more

I truly love coming here!! Rachel (I hope I spelled her name right) is awesome every time we come here she's so nice and welcoming. The trade up system is my favorite. Better than round1! read more
