Just like "Where's Waldo?" used to keep us awake long past bedtime, flash game Pixel Students makes getting work done very difficult. The concept is the same as classic Waldo -- find a specific person within a huge crowd. But, since this version comes from innovative interactive designer Alan Outten, we get to feel a little more grown-up while we play.
