Those that find themselves constantly hitting the snooze button in the morning will find the 'NEMO' puzzle alarm clock to either be the best or worst way to help eliminate unnecessary snoozing.
Instead of featuring a snooze button, the 'NEMO' clock features a maze game on the top that requires users to play in order to snooze. The ball must be shifted to the blue section in order to be set, while moving it to the red section allows users to snooze. However, the act of having to move the ball in the complicating maze will incite users to simply get out of bed rather than trying to figure it out.
The 'NEMO' puzzle alarm clock is the design work of Snežana Jeremić and is conceptually designed in three wooden color options.
