Winner - Outdoor Toy Awards 2019!
Nominated – "Best Startup Product" at CES
Hide & seek re-imagined. The classic playground game with all new bells and whistles.
After you find Countdown, the clock is still ticking. To stop it, you’ll have to beat a series of mini-puzzles!
Countdown has an adjustable difficulty level you set before each round:
Difficulty 1 – Simple hide & seek. No games. Great for the youngest players.
Difficulty 2–3 – Basic games, slow paced. Reading not required.
Difficulty 4–7 – Increasing intensity. Reading required.
Difficulty 8–9 – You better have amazing reflexes to even try..
The difficulties are what sets Countdown apart by allowing a wide age range of kids to play together. A younger player can still create a challenge for an older kid/adult by selecting a higher difficulty.
Countdown is built to be engaging. It’s a high-tech toy in a simple, throwback design. It’s powered by a 32-bit microprocessor, 6 bright multi-color LEDs and buttons, a wide, high-contrast display, a 3-axis accelerometer and more. All that tech is meant to draw this generation of kids into a toy that’s meant for some serious play.

We started developing Countdown in late 2018. We’ve come extremely proud of what we’ve accomplished on limited resources. The next steps are for mass manufacturing, which requires extensive capital.
You can invest in Pressure Games with as little as $100 to purchase stock in our startup and grow with us. You’re investment will grow over time as we do and you’ll be a part of the ideas we believe in and the toys we create.
