KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA, July 9, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Award-winning casual game Claw Stars by Appxplore (iCandy) has launched a crossover with Minto Inc.'s widely beloved Usagyuuun, one of the world's most popular chat stickers, featuring an adorable rice cake bunny that stretches energetically to express emotions. Packed full of squishy cuteness, the Usagyuuun collab is available now in Claw Stars, which can be downloaded for free on the App Store or Google Play.

A must-try for lovers of all things cute and cuddly, the Claw Stars x Usagyuuun crossover has the unique distinction of being Usagyuuun's very first video game debut, giving users the exciting opportunity to play as the iconic bunny. Usagyuuun gets the chance to hop on board the spaceship and become the new hero of Claw Stars, clawing for treasures and rescuing cute animals across the universe.

As a celebration of Usagyuuun's expressive nature, this crossover features the Usagyuuun Pack, a cornucopia of exclusive premium content that includes many delightful new ways for players to express themselves.

This pack includes two quirky new spaceships, the Usagyuuun Ship where Usagyuuun dangles wildly out of the spaceship whenever it moves, as well as the Ninjin Rocket which features mysterious carrot Ninjin!? piloting an even chunkier giant carrot. Players can complete the look with the accompanying joystick and Usagyuuun Helmet, which is adorably shaped to accommodate Usagyuuun's bunny ears, or choose from a whimsical selection of 20 unique unlockable spacesuits and two joysticks, available as part of the Naughty Rabbit and Mecha Rabbit Style Station collections.

The social aspects of the game have been infused with even more charm and personality, with animated Usagyuuun stickers to use when chatting with Squadron members, mischievous Usagyuuun foolstone pics for pranking friends, and five ultra-cute Usagyuuun profile avatars.

Last but not least, players have the option to recruit Usagyuuun's best buddy, the cuddly cat Nekogyuuun, to serve as a new addition to the existing lineup of friendly Helpers who will boost the rewards from clawing. Nekogyuuun's DNA can be collected to evolve your squishable feline friend through four stages of increasingly adorable looks.

All players will get the chance to take home their own Usagyuuun Costume and more rewards by completing a special mission that involves clawing for the bunny capsules that have appeared mysteriously across the land. Supercharge mission rewards with the Usagyuuun Pass which gives access to the Nekogyuuun Spaceship, where the player gets to ride on a giant robot cat, as well as a cuddly joystick with Usagyuuun and Nekogyuuun wrapped around each other in a cute little hug.

"Usagyuuun fits perfectly into the Claw Stars universe and resonates with fans of both IPs," said Appxplore CCO Lim Jenn Yu when announcing the collaboration in May. Players can experience the appeal of Usagyuuun for themselves by trying out the Claw Stars x Usagyuuun crossover, live now in Claw Stars.

Claw Stars is available on both iOS and Android.
