Overview
Don't Move the Mouse is a minimalist indie game that challenges players with a single, deceptively simple rule: don't move the mouse. Developed and published by Rpx, this 2D title strips away all conventional gameplay elements, focusing purely on the player's ability to exercise restraint and patience.
The moment the game begins, a timer starts, and any perceptible movement of the mouse cursor results in an instant failure. There are no levels, no story, and no objectives other than to remain perfectly still for as long as possible.
