Sažetak
Nowadays, with the development and diffusion of modern technologies and Internet, the use of video games as a pastime is
growing, both online and non-networked. Traditional games are increasingly outdated by video games, and players of all ages are growing. With this research, we have been asked how much video games, seemingly pleasant and innocent pastimes, can become a problem for players, to the detriment of their health and to create new addiction.
A review of the literature over the last two decades has been carried out in PubMed, Medline, on video game addiction and IGD, and books and newspaper articles have been cited online. The frequent and protracted use of video games with serious personal, family and social consequences is no longer just a pleasant pastime and could lead to mental and physical health problems. Although there is no official recognition of video game addiction on the Internet as a mild mental health disorder, further scientific research is needed
