Dad, I'm sleeping!

Dad, I'm sleeping! puts you in the shoes of a kid who just can't resist the glow of a phone screen after lights out. Your dad is on patrol, popping in at unpredictable moments to make sure you're actually snoozing. The game blends timing, quick reflexes, and a bit of nerve as you duck under the covers, hide your screen, and try to appear totally unconscious. Each level raises the stakes with new hiding spots, distractions, and dad's increasingly suspicious behavior. You'll unlock snazzy phone cases, pillows, and other gear that help you blend in better. The charming pixel art and playful sound effects keep the mood light, even when you're sweating over a creaky floorboard. It's a short, punchy arcade experience that's easy to pick up for a few minutes, but hard to put down as you chase that perfect score.

What is Dad, I'm sleeping!

Get ready to master the art of fake sleep. Sneak in some late-night gaming without letting your dad catch you.

How to Play

Tap the screen to hide your phone under the pillow and close your eyes when you hear dad approaching. Time your actions to stay undetected and earn points for each successful dodge.

Tips for Playing

Watch the door—dad often peeks in through a crack before actually entering.
Don't hide too early; stay still for a moment after he leaves to avoid suspicion.
Use the 'snore' button to make your fake sleep more convincing when he's close.
Level up your pillow to reduce the chance of the screen light leaking out.
If you get caught, try again—each attempt teaches you dad's patrol patterns better.
