A new kind of arcade is coming to San Antonio.
Unlike a typical arcade, where one might encounter one claw machine in a sea of Street Fighter games, first-person shooters and pinball machines, this South Side attraction is nothing but claws.
Featuring a total of 25 claw machines, Klaw Time will open Saturday, Jan. 11 at 1324 Southwest Military Drive. The notoriously vexxing game will offer players the chance to win prizes from plushies to high-end items such as Nintendo Switches and even e-bikes, according to Klaw Time’s website.
Players win prizes by swapping cash for credits. A player can start small with 40 credits for $10 or go big with 540 credits for $100, according to the arcade’s website.
Families who just want to give their kids access to low-stakes, low-cost fun can also keep it simple. Every $1 play gives the player the chance to win an 8-inch plushie toy, according to a report by the Express-News.
Conveniently — if gaming works up an appetite — Klaw Time is located in a shopping plaza next to a Wing Stop and a Pizza Patrón.
Klaw Time’s hours of operation will be 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
