Comment on YSK about Darkpatterns.games, a website that rates mobile games on their "Dark patterns"
ericbomb@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoOof yeah I sometimes get drawn into idle games. It’s weird to be pulled into those, because just the constant feeling of accomplishing something short circuits my brain, combined with “Oh I should check in on my game once a day, or I’m not accomplishing things”. Usually once I stop playing for a few days I go “oh, why did I care?” But it feels real bad in the mean time.
