A prompting device for prompting state information of a physical game character includes a smog machine and a control circuit. The smog machine include a smog chamber, a heating element, and an air-blowing device. The smog chamber has a receiving cavity for receiving smog fluid, an inlet, and an outlet. The inlet and the outlet are in communication with the receiving cavity. The heating element is mounted within the receiving cavity and generates heat to vaporize the smog fluid after an electric current is applied. The air-blowing device is disposed corresponding to the outlet for blowing an air flow towards the receiving cavity. The air flow generated by the air-blowing device enters into the receiving cavity from the inlet and discharges smog within the receiving cavity from outlet. The control circuit is configured to control the smog machine to generate the smog that characterizes the state information.

A playhouse assembly includes a playhouse which comprises a lower bowl and an upper bowl that is attached to the lower bowl such that the playhouse has the ornamental appearance of a flying saucer. The playhouse has a plurality of windows that is each integrated into the upper bowl to facilitate occupants of the playhouse to see through the windows. The playhouse has an entrance to facilitate the occupants of the playhouse to enter or exit the playhouse. A plurality of legs is each coupled to and extends downwardly from the playhouse thereby facilitating the legs to support the playhouse above a support surface. A pair of antenna is each coupled to and extends upwardly from the playhouse.

The present invention provides a desktop toy, educational device, or stress relief device that provides visualization of the settling of dry fluidized powder and gas within a transparent container, where dynamic gas and powder streams may be seen flowing along the upper inclined side wall of the toy leading to a surface spout or eruption of gas and powder at the upper surface of the powder bed.

The present invention relates to an interactive toy-set for playing digital media, in particular auditorily recounting a story. The toy-set comprises a housing (10) adapted at receiving one or more placeable tokens (7). The placeable tokens each have a unique identifier incorporated, and the toy-set further comprises a sensing unit (11) for detecting a presence of the one or more placeable tokens (7). A control unit is adapted at selecting a track and a track index number from a number of indexed tracks based on the detected identifier of the one or more placeable tokens, whereby the track and track index is determined based on a specific unique role attributed to each placeable token (7). The interactive toy-set further comprises an output unit for outputting the track and the present invention also concerns a method for operating a toy-set for playing digital media in analogous fashion.
