There are games that can keep one glued to their seats for a longer period of time. Have you ever played such a game going for over an hour? Which game was that?
 
Every game that one played can glue the person for a longer period of time in their seat unless the person isn't a gamer, maybe he/she is passing by or using the game to pass time.

I have played many games that I was glued to my seat for a very long time. Clash of clan, Candy Crush, puzzle games, racing games, Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty, The Sims and many more.
 
Whenever a game is very captivating, you are going to be playing it for hours without realizing that you have spent so much hours playing that particular game. I had this experience when I was playing the Punisher on my SEGA Genesis years ago.
 
I once played Minecraft for 5 hours straight without even realizing it. It's crazy though but the gameplay is so immersive. I was building one very massive castle, and I got carried away.
 
This has happened to me multiple times. I once played Fortnite for 6 hours straight without really realizing it. My mom had to remind me to eat dinner 😁

Aaaah, the mommy's boy 😂 😂 😂

I don't think you really felt hungry because if you did, you wouldn't know when you leave the game and look for food.

That's indeed a great dedication! For me, I get carried away with games with great storytelling or intense multiplayer action.
 
I have many times played a game for over an hour without getting up. The games that I remember doing this on were

Halo 3
Rainbow Six Vegas 2
Fortnite
 
It happens with most the games I play. I ended up getting locked in for longer than I intended.
 
Well, this happens to me multiple time. I think for a lot of us losing the sense of time while playing games is common
 
Back in the day, it was sly cooper 2 on PS2, that game melted the hours in a blink of an eye.

If a game has got a great storyline, playing it for more longer period of time is quite fun and it is awesome when you are playing with friends.
 
Yes, when Counter-Strike was a thing.

I was developing my pet site while concurrently playing TvT CS maps and would find myself getting wrapped up in CS, delaying the development process.

I had to cut back. It was hard though, because a lot of my friend groups were on there. They were also apart of the pet site, but playing it didn't take as much time for them as playing CS as there is only so much you can do with a pet in any given time, otherwise you'll have a "100 year old" pet in a day if you don't impose growth limits, etc.

That's too funny. The game had you hooked. Has there been any other games that had you playing for hours on end like this?

I feel you because I've spent hours playing games without knowing. It was The Legend of Zelda. I was fully immersed in the game with no concern on what was going on in the outside world.🤣

In fact, another game that almost got me into trouble again was The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I was so immersed in the game and the interesting storyline that I lost track of time. Before I knew it, 8 hours had passed.🤣
 
I have played career mode in FIFA 17 for complete seven hours. Didn't feel hunger, and I didn't feel sleepy. Not even a single fatigue. Those were days I was addicted to gaming.

I remembered my days of playing Call of Duty for longer hours without feeling tired or bored. This is always possible when one doesn't have many things to do as well. However, I would say that those days are fun and happy.

Yes, there are games which totally engross you and you won't know that you have spent a lot of time on them. That type of immersion is hard to find but they are memorable.

You are right about that. Is there a game that has ever made you feel like that before? Did you spend money on the game as well?
 
You made a very good point! Some games can pull you in and you will not notice that you have spent so much time and you will lose track of everything else and when you get too deep in the game, spending money feels much easier.
 
I don't waste my time too long on any video games which I'm not getting the connection I wanted. I might play it for 30 minutes or 40, if it's not registering, I'm off.

I won't advise anyone to do so on any game that they don't get the desired satisfaction from as well. Is there a game that you ever played for more than the said 40 minutes, let's say for two hours straight?

I’ve absolutely passed the two-hour limit before without realizing it. Occasionally it’s narrative-driven games that captivate me particularly when the story intensifies.
 
Actually, this happens to me all the time. Losing time in game is very common for me. These days I set an alarm so that I known when to stop.

Setting an alarm that reminds you when to stop playing a game sounds thoughtful, you know.

However, what happens when you are playing a game that is quite interesting and you felt like not stopping when the alarm bells rings or have you always stayed in line?

Losing sense of time when playing game is very common in many people and I belong to that group.
