I’m 50 now. Haven’t played video games to much over the years. This one brought me back and let me tell you it’s the best video game experience I’ve had in my entire life. From Contra alien wars, which was my all-time favorite by the way, to madden football, to my sons PS 4 games I’ve tried them all, but just haven’t been enthralled until now, Tears of the Kingdom, best game in my life so far. I’m all in and love it. You see I go back to the vectrex i’ve played so many video games, but never spent a lot of time on them If they didn’t capture me & captivate me. The new Zelda is worth being a gamer again bravo! I spent six hours on it last night straight out the box😂. Absolutely amazing. 🎉

I really want to get Dredge now! I love it when you guys do the addictive game videos, I always make a point to try at least one game from each video. My current addictive game is Slime Rancher, I was playing after work the other night and couldn’t believe 2 hours had passed. Keep up the good work guys!
I found Children of Morta thoroughly addictive but I think maybe part of it was because I enjoyed playing in coop, spending time with my 15 year old, (who was also completely hooked by it) which isn't that common these days.

Same for me, until I finished the game feeling really op and with no options on where to spend the money, the new game plus didn't do it for me.
For me, addiction takes the form of monster hunter rise... still waiting to pick up sun break (that dlc price is pretty daunting) but I love trying different playstyles for familiar monsters... it's a brilliant combination of big game hunting and dress up 😂
Thanks for recommending Dredge! Never heard of it until now - straight on my wishlist!
Great list! I would have never thought a truck game would have been the number 1 to kick it off 😂 but after listening to you talk about it I gotta say I'm intrigued!
Putting Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope Gold Edition on my wishlist, looks solid and would like Nintendo to keep collaborating/experimenting in the future -
Zelda TOTK!!!! Are there other games? Oh I remember! Dredge is also very addictive.
For me, nothing ever came close to the original Seiken Densetsu III or Trials of Mana. At this point, I lost count of how often I beat it throughout the years and I keep on coming back. Trying out new class combinations in different scenarios is so addictive. In fact, just planning the optimal team and strategy for the next run is part of the fun.

I dont think you know what "hidden gem" truly stands for... that game has been shoved down my throat since before release.. an i still have no interest.
I have to go with Darkest Dungeon. It's probably the only roguelike that I have not gotten bored with nor insanely agitated over dying so much. And of course a big shoutout to SnowRunner, seriously everyone needs to play this game. I myself have it on XBox, but one day, it will grace the SD card memory of my Switch!!
Totally agree with Mario Rabbids. Persona 5 was also a massive time sink. I would add Loop Hero and Roguebook. Both I have as fillers or chill games, but end up syncing a few hours without even realising. So good! Plus, I haven't put Zelda down - an incredible game.
Hello guys! Been watching for a while now but this is my first time with a commitment. Just wanted to say thanks so much for making these videos I really enjoy them and they are part of my every day life, so again thank you. Also one game I wanted to suggest that is addictive as hell and I'm not sure if I've seen it mentioned on the channel that is The last spell, it's an amazing turn based base defense that's so much more than that. Anyhow, keep up the good work and peace out.
Star Wars pinball is a great value, has boards covering all the Movies, a clone wars board, and rebels. There’s loads of content on it for a pinball machine lover
Thanks for pointing out Prodeus, i never new it existed and its that type of retro style doom inspired game ive been looking for, Great game
Got addicted to Mudrunner and after finishing it had to get Snowrunner and now working my way through it 😁 Dredge has also been a recent addiction 😊
Snowrunner is such an addicting game. I also resigned myself to the fact I may not ever finish it. There is so much to do! I love the chill vibe (until I tip the truck at the last leg of the journey.) Dredge is my favorite addicting game I don’t own yet. I’ve watched 2 full walk throughs and played the demo. I will buy it soon but man. What a crazy good game.
I had to pick up snowrunner after your last sale video. Loving it!!
Hades is definitely my addictive game on Switch. I’m a pretty busy dude so I rarely have time for all the intricacies of huge games like Tears of the Kingdom. I love that I can just hop in and make a couple runs attempting to escape the Underworld.
I absolutely loved my time with MH - just sad I haven’t been able to afford sunbreak yet. I love how many updates they still seem to be giving it!
If Tears if the kingdom wouldn't be so addictive, I would definitely be playing Dredge. Loved the demo, almost bought it, now it will be sitting on my wishlist for after totk
Ducktales, mud runner, Dying light, Any Super Mario Bros, Aladdin on the SNES, and Witcher 3.
No Man's Sky, Dragon's Dogma, Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning, Dragon Quest Builder 2, Skyrim, Monster Hunter Rise and Monster Hunter Stories are games I keep going back too. Out of games I mentioned most definitely NMS. My son bought it for me close to end of November 2022. I already have 1, 000 plus hours in the game and has top all my other games in hours. Safe bet to say I'm highly addicted to NMS 😂
I've mentioned it before but Farm Tycoon is hands down my most addictive game, and as I've said, the game has major issues, especially the larger your farm gets. I do have an older switch so that could contribute to the issues, but at 9 open squares the game lags, crashes and freezes regularly. There is some auto saving, but you can still have to repeat a season of work after some crashes where it doesn't trigger. You can watch and learn what to look for before a crash, but some will still sneak up on you, mostly it randomly freezing in menus. I love it, still play it constantly, but yeah game has major issues so if your going to get it, get it on sale. I payed $1.99 and I feel like that was fair for the level of frustration I've had with it. Still can't stop playing....

155 hours since January on Snowrunner and in no sign of stopping soon. Haven't been able to play any other games lol
Picked up Snowrunner cause of y’all a couple weeks ago and I’ve sunk dozens of hours into it! Great game!
My most addictive swicth game is hades. I usually hate rouge lites but the continuing story and great combat just hits right
Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak, Dead Cells, Hades, Skull The Hero slayer and Darkest Dungeon. These are my "addictive" games. Making it hard for me to clear my backlog. And now i am addicted/obsessed with TOTK! Is there a rehab center for video game addicts out there? 😅😂
BOTW, TOTK and MK8D go without saying, but the most surprising hidden gem for me was Yoku’s Island Express. Got it for under $5 and did not expect it to hook me to 100% completion. Relaxing, addictive, and underrated.
Rouge legacy, slay the spire, and okami are all very addicitive to me. I like the rouge part of the first two, never knowing what I'm going to get- combine that with solid mechanics I'm sold. Okami, the combat and art style are so unique I can never put it down each time I play through it.
The Trails series got me hooked, really glad they bought it to the switch. Hopefully they bring cold steel 1,2 and the sky trilogy along as well.
I still haven't opened my switch but Snowrunner looks so beautiful. I could easily get hooked on that one. I'm also dying to try Disney Dreamlight Valley.
I agree. Snowrunner is unreal. So much content I can’t keep up. I love it
I really enjoy y'alls lists. Just a recommendation for one, top 10 local multiplayer games. I really like Sniper Elite series and the fact that it can be played locally on switch. Battle Zone is another great one. Just wonder what games yall would put on a list. ( I think local wireless is so great because one day there won't be any one playing it online but as long as you have a switch and a copy of the game on 2 systems you are set )
First off, I love the channel! Really great stuff and a awesome list, for me another game worth mentioning that’s addicting is Cuphead, the 1930s art style, the run and gun gameplay, it’s a brutal game, it looks “cute” by my God, it kicks my ass so much but every time, I think to myself, okay one more go!
My current addictive game is Blaster Master Zero, the game is so good! found the game by accident and it's the kind of "just 5 more minutes..." ahahah
For me being a big baseball fan, I just play MLB The Show constantly. I can’t be a sports GM in real life but I can take control of my favorite team and build a World Series caliber team. I put 80+ hours in to last years version and I’m about 40 hours in this year. Can’t get enough.
I'm in the same boat for Persona 5 lol it's my 3rd go at it total (having Persona 5 Vanilla then Royal on PS4 then Switch for portability) and I've never beaten it but I'm 35 hrs in on switch. I stop at times if I get stuck or out of it but it's way too addictive. Can't really respect that length but still the quality is there.
I mean this in the kindest way possible but in the back of the Snowrunner bit I needed up on your review for Mudrunner from 4 years ago and you have certainly honed your craft!

My most addictive top 3 Skyrim: living in one of the town for a few days moving on to the next adventure Fifa: training up my youth academy and focusing on different skill for each to have a role on the field Botw: the survival aspect and the beauty in the world
Usually I get addicted to strategy games like Advance Wars or creative design games like Animal Crossing or Stardew Valley. So I was pretty surprised at how addictive I found the indie RPG adventure game 'Haven'. I picked it up in a sale having seen the intro on KZread which was a stunning bit of animation with a killer soundtrack, and I expected to just dabble in it now and again. Instead I completely fell into the story of two young lovers stranded on a remote planet, having fled their highly-ordered and very controlling 'utopian' society. You live day to day exploring and uncovering the mysteries of the planet, dealing with hunter-droids sent to bring you back and fixing up your little crashed spaceship to feel more like home. The soundtrack is killer and fully voiced dialogue warm, engaging and feeling like a genuine relationship. I couldn't put it down. It's not too long either, it felt just the right length. It's not going to set the world on fire, but I was pretty gripped by something that felt a little Daft Punk cool crossed with Iain M. Banks / Sherri S. Tepper sci-fi and while I usually jump back and forth between games I was stuck on this pretty much every spare moment I had until it was completed. Mileage may vary, obviously, but well worth checking out.
Necrodancer is tough as nails at first, but when you git gud it really becomes a whole other game for you to enjoy
I keep coming back to Hades, by far my most played game on Switch. Dredge looks really interesting, definitely one that will jump to the front of the backlog when the price is right.
Definitely will try Dredge, once my TotK fever burns out in a few months...
I’m still cursing you for sharing Pirates Outlaws on here. I took a punt on it, and I’ve found myself still awake playing it at 2am so many damn times! I need something else to break the habit!
At the moment nothing is more addictive than TotK. The gameworld is absolutely mindblowing! Getting side-tracked and losing hours every single time you set out to do a quest never gets old.
Dredge was one of the best games I play, and I love cosmos horror that was just cream on top it
Snowrunner is fantastic and plays really good on Switch. Ultra Age with its Roguelike or roguelite mode is great. Lastly Super Mega Baseball 3 is a great way to chill. Also SMB 4 is coming out I believe next month. Also shout out to Children of Morta, one of the best games on Switch period.
I got hopelessly addicted to dead cells not to long ago. Put in about 50 hours in a week and a half. Rougelikes in general get me. And way back when it released Pokemon unite was one I couldn't put down.
Right now, its Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, this is so impressive and the controls are so intuitive. The audio, art, and story matches a rich gameplay. It will be my addictive game for now. Before that, I was playing Dead Cells and Witcher.
Snowrunner, Mario & Rabbids, Dredge, those are amazing games. addictive to the point they are the last thing you think about when going to sleep, and the first when you wake up. Moonlighter, Labyrinth of Refrain (and some other similar dungeon crawlers like Labyrinth of Yomi, and the upcoming Etrian Odyssey when played on DS and 3DS), and recently something as silly as the Cannon Fodder clone that is Tiny Troopers, did the same for me. There's definitely others that also had that addictiveness, that perfect loop and constant progression, challenge, fun,... Like Remnant from the Ashes, Zombie Army 4, World War Z,... Some big RPG's,... Fuga is on my watchlist, Persona 5 and TotK are in the pipeline.
Slowly but surely you are convincing me to purchase Snowrunner...one of these sales.

2D side scrollers are my current addiction, and thanks to you guys with the last couple of weeks EShop sale list my 256gb sd card is now full. Chasm and Neon Abyss are my current accition (for now). Nintendo thinks I also have a problem because they are hidding my wish list from me. I can quit ANYTIME, just after the next EShop sale.
I am loving Dredge! Don't know what it is I particularly love about it, but it's got me hooked! I'm not sure about TOTK, certain aspects of BOTW really did my head in, so I might pick it up at some point, when the price has come down or a pre-owned copy maybe?
I am absolutely hooked to Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive right now. 23 hours in and I can't stop questing and taking down huge baddies while messing with my party to see who's the best. Not to mention the breathtaking levels and story that keeps you hooked.
Never heard of Knives out until now! Have to give it a go for sure 😊
Just bought prodeus and snowrunner physicals thanks to this vid, still caught up in TOTK so backlog extended once again 😅
I tried out the demo for a game called 'Lonely Mountain Downhill' Played only a few minutes, but it felt very addictive! Like you end up every run knowing that you can do better than that!
The issue with snowrunner is that any region passed Alaska, runs like crap. Especially the late game maps
You convinced me to download the Japanese PUBG. Dunno if I can get it to work but if it does than this will be an interesting experience for sure.
MH rise and sun break is the game that's so addicting specially that Capcom supports the game a whole year after release. Once you've grinded to upgrade everything a month or two there's a new thing to upgrade.
For me at the minute subnautica has me hooked ands taking all my game time love the fact there's so much to build and discover
Is it possible to play invert in Knives out? I've downloaded the game, I can't seem to find the setting for it.
I'd be hooked to Dredge for sure, if only I could put down Tears of the Kingdom. Dredge has been on my list since I saw the review, just looking for more time.
Hands down my most addictive game is the binding of isaac, I think I'm done with the game, but it keeps pulling me back. Also a blast in co-op
I hold SwitchUp entirely responsible for getting me addicted to Pirates Outlaws, I'm over 100 hours in and still can't put it down.
SwitchUp out of context: "Insert to the soul cannon and they die." Crazy laugh.
Tears of the Kingdom has me hooked back into the world of Hyrule something crazy. They really have outdone themselves!
Before TotK, I’d get lost (literally and figuratively) in Snowrunner for hours. Strangely calming game
Our hidden gem here is the river city girls series. Super addictive side scroller beat em up!
Playing through Advance Wars 1+2 Reboot Camp it's being just a fun ride.
I LOVE Snow Runner! It's my go game to when I need to relax and clear my mind
Nice hidden gem in this video ❤❤❤😅 I wanted to buy Zelda for my bday today but, I don't have botw so uhm maybe another game.. maybe 😅
I'm shocked at how hooked I got on Golf Story
The most addicting game for me was Planet Puzzle League for the original Nintendo DS. The oeiginal game (Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack) was originally released for the snes, then there was Pokemon Puzzle League. But the DS version was perfect foe the console.
My addictive games currently are the Atelier games and Soul Hackers 2. When I did have gamepass, I did enjoy Prodeus. I played a but of Persona 5 Royal, but didn't get very far before my gamepass sub lapsed. I have been thinking about getting Persona 5 Royal for the Switch, but haven't jumped on it yet. I have Strikers, so I will need to complete P5R first.
Got Prodeus and is absolutely amazing. And on Wednesday getting Warhammer Boltgun.
How does Snowrunner handle the lack of analog triggers on the Switch? Is there some sort of workaround?
Really hope they make more after Sparks of Hope, great game all around. Thinking about getting either Dredge, FAR: Lone Sails or something else next.

I'm only here for snowrunner 😅.. yeah, I have a problem 😮💨... enjoyed the video, Keep it up.
Monster Hunter Rise is still my most-played Switch game EVER. I couldn’t get into any previous MH games - not even World hooked me in (at the time the menus and such were daunting). I gave Rise a good solid shake - and man am I glad I did on release. My brother and I have a blast on the weekends playing it - and we’re both 40! Haven’t been this hooked on a game since Rocket League.
I like how you got all of the prices in lots of different currency s!Handy.
Power Wash Simulator has to be my #1 addictive game
I finished Signalis the other night, I found that hard to put down, but I couldn't tell you why. Monster Hunter Rise failed to truly grab me though, which is weird, because I couldn't get enough of World when I was playing that.
I see you're a fellow LBG, a true gentleman of refined tastes. Monster Hunter and Splatoon are my addictions.
