How it works
One rule.
Your choice.
The video gives you the challenge. You bring the attention, the choice and the moment to pause.
What is a video challenge?
A short video with a goal you can follow: find an object, track a moving item or pause at the right time. Pause Hunt videos show a fixed sequence. They do not react to your choice.
How do I play?
Read the rule on the challenge page. Start the video, make your choice before the reveal and use the player controls to pause or continue. In timing challenges, check the frame you paused on.
Is it free?
The three published challenges on this site are free to watch. You do not need to create an account or enter payment details.
Are answers or scores saved?
No. The website does not detect your answer, calculate a score, save progress or run a leaderboard. When a challenge has points, count them yourself.
Do I need sound?
No. Rules and answer reveals are visual, and each page includes text instructions. Videos begin muted; you can enable sound in the player.
Can I play on a phone?
The site adapts to small screens and uses standard video controls. Player behaviour and pause timing can vary by device. Physical phone testing has not yet been completed.
Where is the answer?
For Moonlight Market and Flying Simit, continue to the reveal in the video or open “Show the answer” below the rules. For Pause Ladder, check whether the whole dot fits inside the ring in your paused frame.
Can I try again?
Yes. Use the video timeline to return to the start. Once you have seen a fixed answer, another watch is practice rather than a new unseen puzzle.
