The hunt for the egg continues, with two Japanese hunters named Daito and Shoto gaining points. Sorrento offers Wade a lucrative job to help IOI finish the hunt, but after Wade refuses, they attempt to assassinate him. He is approached by Nolan Sorrento, an executive from Innovative Online Industries (IOI), who want to control the OASIS. He takes advantage of his fame, endorsing virtual products for credits, and develops a tentative relationship with Art3mis. His avatar becomes famous within the OASIS, as does his friend Aech and another gunter named Art3mis who clear the Gate shortly after him. After clearing the Gate, he is awarded points and his avatar's name appears on the previously empty scoreboard. This places him in a simulation of the film WarGames in which he has to recreate the lines of the lead character.

Then Wade, who goes by the avatar name Parzival, stumbles upon the possibility that the first clue (known for containing a Dungeons & Dragons reference) refers to the virtual school planet Ludus (on which he is stuck) and after defeating an NPC character at Joust, is given the Copper Key which unlocks the First Gate, and a clue about where to find it and how to access it (by beating the video game Dungeons of Daggorath in a recreation of Halliday's own bedroom). The hunt has been going on for five years, yet no one has been able to find the first key (the Copper Key).

He is a "gunter" (an egg hunter) who spends all his spare time researching films, songs, TV series, and videogames from the 1980s and '90s to aid his hunt. He attends school within the OASIS but lacks the virtual currency or XP levels to travel to other locations. Wade Watts is a teenager who lives in a slum with his aunt. This has led to an intense interest in all aspects of 1980s pop culture, which Halliday made clear would be essential to finding his egg.
