What is the last video game that you were completely hooked on?
The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.

Ingress. I was obsessed with it. Couldn't stop playing.
Same. I rocked that game for a year before Pokemon Go came out. It was insanely addictive. I would walk like 3-5 miles a day and I'd take way too many breaks at work to go hit the portals by my office.
Family trips were awkward. I would make detours and hide the reason but just pointed out there was something awesome they should see.
I also took part in global ops where I met irl with other players to move keys.
When I think about it the real life component of that game is amazing.
I participated in a few anomalies, both as support and an on ground person hitting the objectives. Shit was rad, man. I met a couple cool people and even business contacts through it.
I was trying to think of a PC game until I saw your comment. It's totally Ingress for me too. I was hooked and my area (Chicago burbs) had a very active player base. The ops and competition were intense! I really enjoyed the real-world tactical shit, closest I'll ever get to feeling like I was part of a military operation.
I still play it too, but not like before. It's a great way to kill time and explore new places. I think I'm level 12, almost 13, and I'm lazily working towards more badges. I don't understand what the red faction is all about and the other new stuff.
