samba

Sparklz noticed how Bonga became Tromba with its new shell, and decided it needed to experience evolution as well. This is how Samba was born. Since it is not organic, it copied our linear, perpendicular form of nature, and this is what it came up with.

To make Samba move, hold the wheels, and wind the key on the bottom counterclockwise. Let Samba go on any smooth surface, and, it may find the meaning of life in its new, evolved form. You can set up a small community, by assembling Samba, Tromba, and Pitomba together.

This series is dedicated to the Brazilian poet Manoel de Barros, who once wrote: “The snail is a house that walks”.

Enjoy!
