Designed by Dmitriy Baltovskiy, the toy works by allowing users to project foam darts at their colleagues from their desk to start a lighthearted war that helps staunch workplaces break out of their daily grind. The see-through design of the toy with red accents makes it a stylish addition to your workstation that won't detract from the overall look of your space.
