A Look Inside Colorado’s New ‘Claw Zania’ Arcade in Loveland

There's something thrilling for kids, and adults alike, when your claw captures a prize in a claw machine. A claw machine in Loveland is the first location in Colorado of a business based out of Texas, that began in 2024.

What is the Claw Machine Arcade in Loveland, Colorado?

In late February of 2026, we told you about Claw Zania coming to Loveland's Loveland Yards. While there are a couple of claw machine arcades in Colorado, this one stands out, as they have a "Catch, Trade and Upgrade" system. It adds more "adventure" to it all, as the more you catch, the more you can get.

How Does the Trading Work at Claw Zania?

It's hard to not like this idea that Claw Zania came up with, where the more you play the more you can "win." When someone "catches" a plushy, they can keep that prize forever, or they can count that as a "point' towards getting a bigger/better prize.

If you want to keep your points, but can't stay to keep playing and getting more points, you can set up an account that keeps track of your accumulated points. The plushies you're trading in for points go back to the arcade; you can't take them home and then come back and trade them in.

When I stopped in to get a look around, there were more than a few people inside, having fun. One little girl with her dad, let out a huge scream when she "clawed" a prize; that's what it's all about.
