For me it was Terraria, Satisfactory, Tetris Effect Master Mode, Minecraft with Mekanism mod & CSGO / CS2 (almost 2000 hours in CS alone).

Edit: There are so many answers that I might only reply if I have something interesting to say. I will read all of your answers though. ๐Ÿ™‚

Edit 2: It has become too much for me and I have to disable notifications. Thank you for the massive response and please continue to discuss with everyone here. โค๏ธ ๐Ÿซก

AuDHD means every game is part of an addiction phase. I will binge a game for like 100hrs then drop it out of nowhere. Then return right where I left off anywhere between 6 months and 4 years later.

    Unless the return consists of restarting the game, or trying to play for an hour or two then quit out of frustration because you have no idea what the fuck was going on here, I just can't relate.

    Interesting. I have been diagnosed with ADHD since childhood and besides rare Hyperfocus, this doesn't happen for me. But everyone is different, of course.

    You probably need to find the genre that tickles your brain just right. I found that automation games are like crack to my brain. Since you mentioned minecraft and satisfactory, have you played Factorio or Astro Space Colony or Dyson sphere program? Those are games in a similar automation vein and are other ones that gave me the same feeling as the other two (currently playing Minecraft again rn)

    I tried factorio and didn't like it. I really enjoyed mindustry though. I have Dyson sp widllisted, maybe that'll be the next game I try. Thanks for your recommendations. Have fun in Minecraft ๐Ÿ˜Š
