About the Startup

Describe your product in 3 words.

Digital, physical play.

How did you come up with the idea for this product?

From the CEO, Brian Monnin: "We've watched how addictive mobile gaming has grown at the expense of fitness. Play Impossible is the culmination of our dream to encourage kids to get off the couch and be mentally and physically challenged by fusing addicting mobile games with active play. Inspiration hit us watching the blue light blank expressions on our kids' faces in the basement bloom into wild-eyed grins and shrieks of laughter when they ran across the backyard playing ball together. Mobile technology should build bridges to movement, creativity, and togetherness - and not result in ever-increasing solitary idle time."

What makes your product special?

From the Chief Product Designer, Gadi Amit: "The ball is an ageless object and the fun of playing with it doesn't need to be reinvented. Instead, we're connecting it to today's mobile games and mobile-first audience. Starting this company has been a way for me to bring together the physical and digital to create pure and simple joy."
