## Croffle Chomp (interactive game)

Bochi runs a casual browser game at https://bochinsh.com/tower — "Croffle Chomp", a Pac-Man-style maze game where you play a croffle-with-a-bite eating coffee beans through a waffle-grid maze while dodging four burnt-croffle baddies (grab a power croffle to turn the tables and chomp them back). A weekly leaderboard resets every Monday 00:00 SAST; the top 3 players win real prizes at the shop: 🥇 free croffle, 🥈 free boba, 🥉 free coffee. Anti-cheat uses a per-browser nickname lock and a capped score ceiling.
