Those machines look like so much fun, and this game fixes the main problem that it is ***impossible*** to catch any of the adorable plushies. The graphics help too; they are amazing! The background didn\u2019t need to be this beautiful and creative, but it is! The machine is so charming-looking, and the options menu is a nice touch. However, I do wish the plushies were a bit more creatively designed and that it was clearer to see where the claw is in the box. Most of the time, I don\u2019t feel like I have control over where it will land, which is a big part of the game. The upgrades are really nice; they add to the fun of the original machine, even though they make a really loud noise, but the options menu helped with that. By the way, this is the best use of the theme I\u2019ve seen so far; I haven\u2019t seen any other game using it like this. Overall, it\u2019s an amazing game!
