As if arcade games aren't already large, welcome to the Human Crane
Dave & Buster's new lineup of midway games includes the Human Crane, a life-sized version of the classic arcade claw machine. The Human Crane allows guests to become the claw, gently lowering them into a sea of oversized prizes. The game is currently at over 40 D&B stores, with plans to roll out 100 more locations in the near future.
