Every year, we make a promise to our community. Not a vague promise, a real one. A passport-and-sunscreen, sand-between-your-toes, completely-free family holiday kind of promise. This is the story of how we kept it.
In the summer of 2025, a French family landed in Crete, Greece. They hadn't saved up for months, or hunted for deals on a comparison site. They had simply played TOSSIT, subscribed to our newsletter, and won. This is their story (and ours).
How It All Began: The TOSSIT Anniversary Giveaway
TOSSIT turned 3 in October 2024. Three years of silicone darts flying across backyards, beaches, living rooms and trade fair stands. Three years of watching strangers become competitors, and competitors become friends. We wanted to celebrate the way we know best: by giving something back to the people who made it all possible: our players.
We launched a giveaway with two dream prizes: a week in Crete, Greece, and a trip to Budapest, Hungary. No purchase required. No complicated mechanics. Just subscribe to our newsletter and you were in. Want extra entries? Post a video of yourself playing TOSSIT, tag us, and add #TOSSITGiveaway, because we love seeing our community play.
The response was extraordinary. Thousands of players joined from across Europe and beyond. The winners were drawn live, in front of our whole community, in December 2024.
The Winner: A French Family's Dream Come True
Fabrice Ferrier, a French TOSSIT player, won the trip to Crete. For him and his family, it wasn't just a holiday, it was proof that these things actually happen. That brands actually follow through. That a game you play for fun can, sometimes, change your summer plans completely.
In August 2025, the Ferrier family arrived in Crete. They were greeted with the warmth the island is famous for — and on their very first day, they were treated to a welcome massage, courtesy of the resort partnership TOSSIT had arranged. Not a bad way to start a holiday.
Crete Through TOSSIT Eyes
What makes Crete special? Ask anyone who's been, and you'll get a different answer. The Aegean light at 6pm. The tavernas that never rush you. The way the mountains meet the sea. For the TOSSIT team, Crete had an extra layer of meaning: it's a place where people gather, slow down, and play, which is everything our brand stands for.
Our German team member Jenny, who was in Greece at the same time, made it her mission to document the island through a TOSSIT lens: the open spaces perfect for a quick game, the beaches where our silicone darts wouldn't scratch, the energy of families on holiday who just needed something fun to do. The content she captured became part of our story: and part of how we showed the world where TOSSIT belongs.
Because that's the thing about TOSSIT: it doesn't need a sports hall or a scoreboard. It needs a flat surface, a handful of people, and the urge to compete. Crete had all three, in abundance.
More Than a Prize: A Statement About Our Brand
Why does a game company send families on holiday? Because we believe that the people who play TOSSIT aren't just customers, they're the reason TOSSIT exists.
Every pack sold, every tournament organized, every video posted with #TOSSITGiveaway is a vote of confidence in what we're building. The giveaway is our way of saying: we see you, we appreciate you, and we want to give you something real in return.
We don't run giveaways as a marketing trick. We run them because they force us to be accountable: to book the flights, coordinate the logistics, show up, and deliver. And when a family lands in Crete with a TOSSIT-branded itinerary in their pocket, that accountability becomes something we're genuinely proud of.
Why TOSSIT Belongs on Every Holiday Packing List
Here's a practical note for your next trip: TOSSIT is made from 100% silicone. That means it won't rust, won't scratch, won't sink, and won't leave a mark on a marble terrace. It weighs almost nothing in a suitcase, sets up in 30 seconds, and works on grass, sand, gravel, or a hotel terrace.
The rules are simple enough to explain to a 6-year-old. The strategy is deep enough to keep adults competitive for hours. It's the rare game that genuinely works for the whole family, which is exactly why it belongs in Crete, or Budapest, or your garden this weekend.

The Promise Continues: What's Next
The Crete trip was one of two holidays we gave away in 2024. The second winner headed to Budapest: a city, a river, a thermal bath, and a set of TOSSIT darts. Different destination, same philosophy.
In 2025, we raised the stakes: our community is playing for a week of skiing in Avoriaz, France, and a premium camping experience in the French Pyrenees. We announced the winners live on social media, in front of thousands of viewers, because we want everyone to see that this is real.
Every year, TOSSIT grows. Every year, the giveaway gets bigger. And every year, a real family packs their bags and goes somewhere they might not have gone otherwise — because they played a game made of silicone and kept showing up.
