They tap to spin, again and again, until all three reels match and the big news lands. Works on a phone or a TV for the whole room.
“The suspense the slot machine created was the cherry on top.”

A sweet watercolor card they scratch with a fingertip, one silver circle at a time, until three match.

about the studio
A tiny studio for the moments in between
JoyJot started with one question: how do you share big news with people who can't be in the room? The answer turned out to be a game. Something they get to play, not just read.
Every design is art-directed by hand in a soft, painterly style, then built into a little experience that opens from a text message. Each one comes with an easy builder, so you can make it yours in minutes. If anything goes sideways, I answer messages quickly.
