About Caught Napping!
Caught Napping! is a free browser game about falling asleep in all the worst places. Hold anywhere and your eyelids really close. The classroom goes dark and a dream opens behind your eyes: you ride a flying pillow over the clouds and catch sheep. The deeper you sleep the more it pays, and the longer you take to wake up.
Here is the catch. With your eyes shut you cannot see the room. All you get is a moon wearing your teacher's face. When one eye opens, somebody is about to look at you, so let go and look innocent. Stay under too long and you start to snore. Sleep through a math class, a 212-slide meeting, a video call, a wedding speech, a silent retreat, a night shift, a first date and your own court case. Then, at last, go home to your own bed.
