The Flash Stopper from Mega Man 4: it supposedly works by blinding the enemies with a bright light, but in game they just straight up freeze in place as if time stopped.
Oo oo ah ah
Is there a version of Time Stands Still without any sci-fi elements or actual time stopping? As in, a group of characters just suddenly stop, and then resume actions later. I've seen this trope done several times, for both comedy and horror (such as in The Prisoner (1967)).
