- 00:00:00 - 00:01:10
In the imaginary city of Novoco, a famous arcade features claw machines that seem like an exciting challenge, yet winning the plushies is impossible due to a dial inside the machines being set to zero. Players, unaware of the rigged nature of the games, repeatedly play and lose, attributing their failures to a lack of skill or bad luck, rather than recognizing the deceit. This situation raises a moral question about whether the arcade's practices constitute a criminal act or simply a clever but unethical business strategy.
