The Video Game Portal
Video game addiction (VGA), also referred to as gaming disorder by the WHO, is the common term given to the phenomenon whereby an individual becomes mentally reliant on video games. The condition is characterised by the individual's tendency to believe that computer games actully are 'real life' and vice versa. This can have varied consequences, ranging from the incredibly violent to the clinically insane depending upon the video game and individual in question.
As of December 2020, it has been reported that searching "video game a", the phrase "video game addiction" appears near or at the top, suggesting that video game addiction is becoming increasingly common. (Full article...)

| Defender of the Clown was praised for its high quality graphics, family friendly environment and ability with balloon animals. |
Defender of the Clown is a computer game released in 1986 by Cinemaware Corporation. The player directs resistance against the Pierrot occupation of England with an army of whitefaces and seltzer-spraying hobos. The object of the game is to seize the circus rings of one's opponent or build up an appearance that will give him nightmares.
The game had state-of-the-art pie fights for its time, and fully demonstrated the Commodore Amiga's schtick abilities.
Defender of the Clown was first released for the Amiga, followed by loud, honking ports to the Commodore 64, the IBM PC, the Apple II GS and the Nintendo Entertainment System, although Nintendo insisted that an arcade game involving a rubber chicken be deleted.
