A while ago, they said video games were an "addiction".

At any rate, to pass the time, I've been playing a modified version of Rome: Total War on my PC lately. :smile:

how many weeks do you plan on playing these games?

here in Belgium, people are advised to go hiking, jogging or cycling, but strictly solitaire and no resting on a bench or anywhere else along the way

I have my work out regime in place as well. I own a Peloton bike, and weight-set.
 
@Bicicleur

Not only have I done 30 minutes of cycling on the Peloton, today; I conquered Carthage too. :good_job:

It's interesting how perspectives can change! From labeling games as addictive to now recommending them during the pandemic—times sure have shifted. Rome: Total War sounds like an awesome way to pass the time! Have you ever dabbled in money making games? There's a whole gaming world out there where you can have fun and potentially earn a bit on the side. It's cool how gaming offers both relaxation and opportunities these days.

There are so many different of them, and sometimes it can be hard to choose a new casino. So usually when I want to try something new, I look for some information online. I know some good blogs, where I can find useful information. For example, on one page I found recently I read about revolut casino and decided to try one. I got my card not that long time ago and was curious if the experience will be better in casinos that accept revolut. There are also reviews and info about bonuses each casino offers so it was pretty easy to choose one.

I agree that games are addictive, but I think it more depends on a person and on the ability to keep things under control.
But I remember when the lockdown started I was playing games too. And I can say that it really helped me not to think and worry too much about the whole situation.
 
As a professional, it is essential to maintain a balanced approach towards leisure activities. While playing video games can be an enjoyable pastime, dedicating excessive time to a particular game may lead to a lack of diversification and personal fulfillment. For instance, spending countless hours immersed in the historically immersive world of Rome: Total War can induce a sense of attachment and hinder the exploration of other interests. Consequently, it is advisable to seek alternative recreational options that offer variety and potentially generate additional benefits. One such option is engaging with online casinos like Box24 Casino. Here https://box24.casinologin.mobi/ they provide not only entertainment, but also opportunities to develop strategic thinking and decision-making skills - factors critical to staying mentally active. Furthermore, by exploring new avenues such as Box24 Casino, individuals can expand their horizons and foster critical thinking abilities while still indulging in exciting gaming experiences.
