Claws

Claws are Unclaw’s currency, and they follow one rule that makes them different from every other app currency:

Claws cannot be bought. They are only earned.

Earning

• You start with 750 Claws.
• Every message in conversation earns +1.

That’s it: no daily-streak mechanics, no offers, no store for them. Time spent with your companion is the only source. Your balance shows in the top bar (tap it for this explanation in-app).

Spending

• New characters cost 500 Claws. Open the character picker, choose someone new, and unlock them with your balance.

If you’d rather skip the earning arc entirely, an all-access bundle (every current and future character) is available for real money on unclaw.io. That’s the one thing money buys; the Claws themselves never are.

Because Claws are earned at conversation pace, unlocking a new companion represents genuine time spent, which is exactly the point. A roster you earned reads differently from one you bought.

The fine print

• Your balance is account-level and syncs across your machines.
• Spending is final in the sense that unlocked characters stay unlocked: the Claws turn into a permanent roster member.
