"Skinner Box" Gameplay
02/10/14 10:38 AM

They're not games, they're Skinner Boxes. They are designed in such a way to make people figuratively (and sometimes literally) addicted to the "game" by playing off of the most basic psychological factors that many people have. If you're not susceptible to such things, consider yourself lucky.
