MATCHBOXX is a single physical object + software loops that create short, meaningful play moments— designed for focus, connection, and real presence.
“Like expressive instruments, MATCHBOXX runs on custom embedded firmware rather than a general-purpose OS, so interaction stays immediate and embodied.”
Get updates, playtest invites, and the first prototype drops.
Phones can do everything—but they can’t create the same embodied presence. MATCHBOXX is built for the moments screens keep stealing.
Play designed like a ritual: start, engage, finish—then return to life with clarity.
Micro-games that create shared moments—at tables, parks, offices, and gatherings.
Light, sound, and touch cues that feel like a physical instrument—fast and satisfying.
Simple on the outside. Extensible under the hood.
The core hardware provides an ambient feedback layer—light patterns, subtle audio, and tactile cues— built to feel immediate.
Each loop is a repeatable play pattern: prompt → action → feedback → outcome. Solo for focus, social for connection.
One platform. Multiple contexts. Same core promise: presence.
Ritual play that replaces passive screen time with shared moments.
Fast resets between deep work sessions. Office micro-breaks that actually work.
A social object that becomes the table’s “spark”—quick, playful, memorable.
We’re assembling the team to take MATCHBOXX from prototype to product.
If you ship devices, love interaction, and want to build a new category of physical play—let’s talk.
Want to build loops, interactions, visuals, or tools around the platform? Join early playtests.
Short answers. No hype.
Yes—but phones pull attention away. MATCHBOXX is built for embodied, screen-light presence.
Optional. The core experience is always on-device. Companion tools can enhance, not replace.
Join the waitlist. We’ll invite small cohorts for playtests as prototypes are ready.
