Not to disagree with you, but in the case of Civilization, I do find it addicting in both senses. It is one of two games that I just cannot play, because I will be up until 3am playing. (Puzzles and Dragons was the other one, I think I had to uninstall it the day after I downloaded it)

Oh, not Factorio. I guess Factorio might be slightly less addictive than crack because I was eventually able to put it down.
