    This unique indie blends idle mechanics, clicker elements, and adventure mini-games to create a humorous and surprisingly deep reflection on how we spend our time. While some puzzles can be frustrating or disrupt the pacing, the imaginative scenarios and emotional depth make it a standout experience worth discovering.

    Both While Waiting and The Swimmer seem deeply interested in life - what it's made of, how it unfolds, and how easy it is to miss important details. Both are larks, in a way, but difficult, complex, ponderous larks. You know, if such a thing is possible.

    While Waiting turns the most boring parts of a person’s life into an equally reverent and irreverent look at life itself. The 100 minigames offer plenty of variety – even if some of them add to the boredom rather than disperse it – and the overarching story will tug at your heartstrings and tickle your funny bone.
