Regular video game play can impact brain development in teenagers, changing how the brain maps out the real world. Puzzle and logic games may improve memory and spatial awareness, while action and role-playing games are linked to worse performance.
Video games provide temporary escape from stress, foster social connections online, and give a sense of measurable progress and challenge through feedback loops and goals. However, gaming can become addictive through mechanisms like high scores, role-playing, and discovery that are aimed at keeping players engaged.
Signs of problematic gaming include craving more time, lying about usage, and continuing to play despite negative consequences. Finding balance through limits, outside activities, and cooperative rather than competitive games can help prevent overuse
