According to statistics, 90% of players are more likely to choose an object that is placed separately and not stacked with other prizes. The data shows that the success rate of prizes placed separately is about 35%, while the success rate of prizes in stacked areas is only 15%.
Market data shows that prizes with regular shapes (such as spheres or cubes) have a success rate of 25-30%, while prizes with complex shapes (such as cartoon models) have a success rate of only around 15%.
Studies have shown that when the space around the target prize is larger, the gripper can locate and grasp the target more accurately, with a success rate of up to 40%. If the target is closely surrounded by other prizes, the success rate drops to about 20%.
The data showed that prizes placed at a low or tilted Angle had a success rate of about 35%, while prizes placed vertically had a success rate of only 20%. According to consumer behavior research, 80% of players tend to choose prizes with higher value. For example, the success rate of some high-value electronic devices or limited-edition toys may be as low as 10%, but players are still willing to invest in more attempts. Less valuable prizes can have a 50% success rate, but are less attractive.
The data shows that within 1-2 minutes of the prize being placed or adjusted, the success rate is about 40%. Beyond this time window, the success rate drops to about 20%. According to statistics, experienced players are usually able to quickly evaluate the weight, material and position of the prize within 5 seconds, with an average success rate of 15%-20% higher than novices.
Aim at the angle
Data show that when the gripper drops at a vertical Angle, the success rate is usually 20%-25%; When the gripper is lowered at a tilt Angle of 15 to 30 degrees, the success rate can be increased to 30% to 35%. Studies have shown that the success rate of grabbing prizes located directly below is about 25%, while prizes located on the side or slightly away, where the gripper needs to be accurately positioned by adjusting the Angle, the success rate can be increased to 30%.
The data shows that regular shaped prizes such as spheres or cubes, the best grasp Angle is vertical Angle or slightly inclined within 10 degrees, the success rate is about 30%. For prizes with complex shapes such as cartoon models, a grab Angle of 20 to 30 degrees is more suitable, and the success rate is increased by 15%.
According to industry statistics, if the gripper is already in the initial position of 5 degrees of deviation when starting, it is easier to form a gripper point during the operation, and the success rate is 10% higher than the vertical initial Angle. The data shows that the success rate of prizes placed at a tilt is about 35%, while the success rate of prizes placed vertically is only 20%.
In a 20 to 30 degree tilt grab operation, the gripper’s clamping force can be more evenly distributed over the force surface of the prize. The data shows that the success rate of this method is as high as 40%. Vertical grab success rate reduced to 25%.
The smooth surface of the plastic prize, the best grab Angle is 10 to 20 degrees of tilt, the success rate is 30%; Plush toys with textured surfaces had a higher success rate when grabbed at a vertical Angle, about 35%.
The data shows that lighter prizes (weighing less than 200 grams) have a success rate of about 30% when grabbed vertically; Heavier prizes (weighing more than 500 grams) require a tilt of about 20 degrees to improve grasp stability, with a success rate of 25%.
The data shows that if the player can quickly adjust the tilt Angle of the gripper after it moves above the prize, the success rate can be increased by 15%. For example, when the gripper moves above the target and there is no interference around it, the player can grab a difficult prize by quickly adjusting the tilt Angle of the gripper.
The gripper design of some machines only allows vertical descent, and the player needs to position the gripper and the prize more precisely, with a success rate of generally 20%-25%. Machines that can freely adjust the Angle have a success rate of more than 35%.
Grasp the timing

The data shows that when the prize is placed in the state of the machine has just finished replenishing, the success rate is 35%; For prizes that are moved or stacked after multiple attempts, the success rate drops to 20%. Players have the highest success rate when they operate within 1 to 2 minutes after the machine replenishes the prize.
The research shows that some claw machines have programmed “reward Windows”, and every 10 coin drops or so, the machine will adjust the grip strength to increase the success rate. Players who operate within the reward window have a success rate of about 30-40%, while those who miss the window have a success rate of only 15%.
According to statistics, the average skilled player takes 5 seconds to complete the target selection and start the gripper, with a success rate of 35%. While novice players usually take more than 10 seconds, the success rate drops to 20%.
Data show that after continuous use of the machine for more than 30 minutes, the strength of the gripper may decrease by 10%-15%. For light prizes (weighing less than 200 grams), the best grab time is 0.3 seconds after touching the prize. For heavier prizes (weighing more than 500 grams), the best grab time is 0.5 to 0.7 seconds.
The data show that when the starting position of the gripper is closer to the target, the operation time is shorter and the success rate is higher. If the initial position of the gripper is less than 10 cm from the target, the success rate can reach 40%. For targets more than 20 centimeters away, the success rate is only 20 percent.
Studies have shown that players who are emotionally stable have a 15% higher success rate than those who are anxious. Some high performance claw machines are equipped with faster gripper response speed with a delay time of just 0.1 seconds. The average success rate is 35%, while the grip delay of low-performance machines can reach more than 0.5 seconds, and the success rate drops to 20%.
Keep the mentality
Studies have shown that emotionally stable players have an average success rate of 30%, while anxious or irritable players have a success rate of only 15%. According to consumer behavior data, 80% of losers will try again in a short period of time, but only 20% of them can adjust their strategy when they are emotionally stable.
When the player fails five times in a row, the grip strength may increase, and the success rate rises to 35%. However, if the player is emotionally disturbed when he loses, he may ignore this opportunity to improve, and the success rate drops to 20%.
According to the survey, 60% of players get impatient after a series of failures and try to make up for the loss by moving faster. The success rate dropped by about 10 percent. Calm players will spend an extra 5 to 10 seconds watching the machine and prize placement, and the success rate will increase to 40%.
Among skilled players, 75% were able to quickly adjust their mindset after consecutive failures, while only 40% of novices were able to do so. This results in an average success rate of 35% for skilled players and only 20% for novices.
Research shows that when players know the reward cycle of the machine (e.g., one chance of success for every 10 coin drops), 75% of players have a better attitude. Players who don’t understand the reward system are likely to give up after a series of failures, with a success rate of only 15%.
In a quieter environment, the player’s success rate can increase by 15%. In noisy or crowded places, 70% of players are disturbed.

Insert the coin reasonably
The data shows that without a clear strategy, players need an average of 10 to 12 coin drops to successfully capture a prize, spending between 30 and 50 yuan. Through reasonable coin operation and planning, the success rate can be increased by 20%-30%, and the average cost can be reduced to 20 to 40 yuan.
Market research shows that 80% of claw machines use a programmatic reward mechanism, such as triggering a higher grip force every 15 to 20 coin drops. According to statistics, the success rate of players using this method can be increased from 20% to 35%, and the number of coin transfers can be reduced by about 30%.
The data show that in the case of continuous rapid coin operation, the strength of the gripper will not increase significantly, and the success rate is maintained at about 15%-20%. For players who put in coins at intervals of 5 to 10 seconds, the success rate increased to 30%.
According to the survey, 75% of players will immediately coin their next grab after a failure. Research has shown that players who pause for 10 seconds after a failure to observe changes in the operating state of the machine and the position of the prize increase their success rate by 15%.
The data shows that for prizes with higher value (such as electronic products or branded toys), the average number of coin drops needs to reach more than 20 times, while prizes with lower value can usually be captured within 10 times. On high reward cycle machines, it is recommended to budget no more than $50 per time, while low reward cycle machines can be set to $20 to $30.
