Crane Yokocho Kiwami Sagamihara Oyama Store (クレーン横丁 極 相模原小山店), a crane game specialty store operated by AEON Fantasy, is set to open in Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, in late November 2026. Crane Yokocho Kiwami is a specialty store brand that pursues the very "pinnacle" (kiwami) of crane games. The Sagamihara Oyama Store will be the brand's first location in Kanagawa Prefecture and its largest-scale store, with about 600 crane game machines and about 1,400 types of prizes.
The store is meant to be a new outing spot not only for crane game fans but also for families and groups of friends, who can play crane games as if they were shopping.
A "Town of Crane Games" You Can Play Like Shopping

The store will offer about 600 crane game machines, among the brand's largest, ranging from the latest and popular models to big prizes and mini cranes.

Players can pull a dedicated cart and enjoy crane games as if they were shopping, at a new leisure spot that offers both a sense of value and fun.

Cashless, Ticket-Machine-Free Play With the "Yokocho Tegata - YOKO-PASS -" LINE Mini App
At Crane Yokocho Kiwami, LINE users can use the mini app "Yokocho Tegata - YOKO-PASS -" (横丁手形ーヨコパスー) to pay for crane game play and to manage and use accumulated points from their own smartphones.
Players can play with just a smartphone, with no need to bother with exchanging money, and can also earn points, for an easy and rewarding experience.
Three Key Features
1. Two Payment Modes (Charge Payment and Pay-per-Play)
- Charge (prepaid) payment: By charging (purchasing) "value" (house money) in advance, players receive value equal to the charged amount, bonus value, and points, making this the most cost-effective mode. It supports both cash and electronic payment, and cash payments can be settled at the in-store payment machine.
- Pay-per-play: Players do not charge in advance and instead pay for each play on the spot with electronic payment such as PayPay. Points are also awarded in this mode.
Points are awarded at 1 point per 100 yen in both charge payment and pay-per-play.
2. Smart Play by Scanning a 2D Code With Your Smartphone
Scan the 2D code on the machine with the reader in the LINE mini app and select the number of plays, and the game starts. With charge payment, the amount is automatically deducted from the charged balance. With pay-per-play, payment is processed for each play.
3. Point Redemption Also Handled on Your Smartphone
Accumulated points can be exchanged for gifts. Scan the 2D code for the desired gift displayed in the store and the 2D code of the attending staff member, and the gift is handed over on the spot. Point balance, expiration dates, history, and more can be checked on the smartphone at any time.
