Abstract

A claw gaming machine may comprise a cabinet, a claw assembly, prize objects, and a shooter unit. The machine may be configured to: determine an outcome of a claw game; allow an input device to control the claw assembly; end the claw game when the claw assembly does not pick up a prize object and the determined outcome is a losing outcome; cause the claw assembly to move and release the picked-up object away from the shooter unit when the claw assembly does pick-up a prize object and the determined outcome is a losing outcome, cause the claw assembly to drop the picked-up object on the shooter unit when the claw assembly picks-up the object and the determined outcome is a winning outcome; and cause a winning game presentation display when the claw assembly does not pick up a prize object and the determined outcome is a winning outcome.
