Abstract

The sense of chronological anomalies associated with video games refers to the altered perception of time and temporal experiences that players may encounter during gameplay. This abstract explores the phenomenon of chronological anomalies in the context of video games, examining how immersive gameplay, intense focus, and repetitive tasks can distort players' sense of time passage. By synthesizing existing research findings, we aim to elucidate the cognitive and psychological mechanisms underlying this phenomenon and its implications for players' immersion, engagement, and well-being.
