Star Claw Demo

Stretchy paw. Cosmic claw. Haunted haul.

New in 1.1974: Pixel Charms now have rarity frames, from carved walnut to a gold reliquary. Enjoy clearer CRT detail, refined cat fur and faces, and the original Charm animations and Holo effects.

A claw machine where the claw is a cat paw. Time your fling, bank off bumpers, and pull strange prizes out of cosmic-gothic rooms. Every run brings new routes, hazards, and Charm combinations.

Play the free Windows demo: Rooms 1–30.
