Disclosed is an online crane game apparatus. The crane game apparatus includes: a body accommodated therein with prizes; a camera for photographing an inside of the body to generate a game play image; a screen unit provided on at least one surface of the body and having a single color; a communication unit for synthesizing a background video or image to an area corresponding to the screen unit in the game play image to transmit the synthesized background video or image to an outside; and a control unit for controlling the communication unit. Accordingly, the user plays the game while watching the game play image that is more exciting, so that a dynamic and realistic game is implemented.

Disclosed is a crane game machine, which includes at least: a camera unit which images an inside of a main body in which prizes are accommodated, and generates an internal image; a prize moving unit which picks up a prize and then moves the prize to a first score point inside the main body; a sensor unit which is installed at the first score point and senses the passing of the prize through the first score point; a communication unit which transmits the internal image and the sensing result to an external device, and receives a prize moving unit control signal from the external device; and a control unit which controls the movement of the prize moving unit according to the prize moving unit control signal.

An arcade game with that allows a player to control the game using a video feedback plus a tactile response is provided. A player must use the video feed for controlling the game, and the video feed can be altered to vary the difficulty of the game. The tactile response can also be controlled to provide a more realistic game experience to the player.

A game comprising a hand-held device and a retractable magnetic grabber connected to the hand-held device by a flexible cord or string. A person using the educational game may pull on the grabber to extend it to a desired length, and then proceed to attach the grabber to any one of a plurality of targets. When a target or group of targets have been attached to the grabber, the person may then press a pressure sensitive button on the hand-held device, and the grabber is retracted back to the hand-held device at a self-controlling speed. The targets may be magnetized pieces covered with a dry-erasable material, allowing a parent or teacher to write on the pieces the desired responses to educational questions posed to a person. Some embodiments may include a timer and wireless communications for tracking interactivity.
