Did you have an Etch-A-Sketch as a child? I did, and although I played with it quite a lot, I never managed to create anything more than a random collection of lines that might look like something if you squinted and turned your head on one side.
Despite my lack of artistic ability I remember that unusual toy/art tool with a lot of affection, and it's nice to find there's a keyring toy that works on the same principles.
You have 2 little knobs, one which moves the line on the screen vertically, the other, horizontally. Cleverly turning the two at the same time can create diagonal lines and curves. Or it can if you're a more able sketcher than I am! Once the design is finished, you've admired it and shown it to all your friends, simply shake the Magic Sketch to set the screen to blank again, ready for the next masterpiece.
