Crack a shell of hard wax and meet the squishy hiding inside. โ–  The joy of breaking It starts solid. Press and hold to make the first crack and the wax splits with a snap. Every tap and pull sends more flakes tumbling off. The sound is a real recording of wax breaking. โ–  The squishy underneath Strip all the wax away and a squishy is waiting. Push and it sinks slowly; let go and it eases back. Every knead comes with its own crunch. โ–  Real sound, real vibration Nothing is synthesised. Cracking, flaking and kneading each sound different, and the haptics answer the sound. โ–  How to play ยท Press and hold โ€” the first crack ยท Tap โ€” break that spot open ยท Pull with two fingers โ€” tear a flake away ยท Swipe โ€” roll the ball and work the other side ยท Shake โ€” hear the loose pieces rattle โ–  Several balls Different colours, different hardness. Pick a favourite and start breaking from scratch. Best with headphones.
