HyperSpace Los Altos — Attraction in Los Altos

As you would probably expect, you probably don't want to play the claw game. The owners of Hyperspace have set the claw game to make sure that grab pressure is low so you'll waste lots and lots of money consistently failing to win (seriously, just watch the claw lose its grip right at the very end, dropping your prize).
