Relaxing Puzzles

Pop Us 2

A pop-it toy with hundreds of shapes to unlock — fruit, animals, planets. Tactile, bright, and completely undemanding.

A digital pop-it: press each bump until the board is clear, flip it, do it again. The collection is the hook — hundreds of shapes to unlock, from fruit and animals to planets and snacks.

Like the bubble wrap, this is a toy rather than a puzzle, but it is a better-made one. The shapes vary enough that clearing a new board feels different, and the colour and sound design carry it further than the concept deserves.

Set expectations correctly and it is genuinely pleasant: something to do with your hands while your attention is elsewhere. Approached as a game it will disappoint within a minute.

No timer, no score, nothing to lose.
