What causes the addictiveness of games like animal crossing?

Asked by live_rose (1223points) February 28th, 2010

I’ve been playing animal crossing on my computer for a little over two hours now. And basically it’s going through the tedious activities of real life (having a job, mailing letters, talking to neighbors that are kind of annoying) but regardless I’m hooked what is the appeal of such games that would cause my attention to be captivated for extended periods of time?
