Tech-toy start-up Pressure Games is launching a Wefunder crowd equity campaign to bring their first toy – Countdown – to market in 2020.
Countdown is all about beating the clock by solving over 12 different retro inspired reflex, logic and movement puzzles. Games playable with the toy include Trigger Finger, Color Wheel, Whack-a-Mole and Cut the Wire.
Founded in late 2018, Pressure Games was created with a belief that active, social and imaginative play is instrumental to childhood development, and the firm aims to create toys that merge technology with traditional play themes.
