The Pauser

The Pauser is a narrative adventure in which you play as Mr. Egg, a father searching for his child. After waking from a nightmare, Mr. Egg finds that the world seems to be paused. You use paused blocks to make progress.

The game satirizes the use of ads to offer rewards and the interruptions caused by ads on social media and video platforms. Ads appear along the way; watching them significantly reduces the game's difficulty.
