Steamworld Dig 2 for sure.

Right now, Super Mario Odyssey. This game is really special. For me, more so than Breath of the Wild.
Before that, I got lost in Xcom 1 and 2. Amazing games. They have some issues, but these only get visible after dozens of hours and repeated playthroughs in higher difficulties.

Super Mario Odyssey. I ended to go to bed last night at midnight and looked up and it was already 1am.
same here. exploring the world and just losing yourself in it is just so much fun.
Stardew Valley on the Nintendo Switch. 40 hours played in a very short period of time. Thank god Mario Odyssey came out...
If I had to take a guess of most recent, it definitely would be Mario Odyssey. Thought I was only going to put in two hours when I got the game at the midnight release, and I put almost four hours before realizing it was about to turn 2 A.M.
Before that, I'd probably say Overwatch due to working on the Halloween Skins and the time taken to get that "one more loot box"

DOOM and before that probably the God of War 3 remaster.
Not many games hold my attention like that these days. In particular, I find games like Uncharted a real struggle. On one hand I feel like I should be enjoying it, and I love the environments and scenery, but on the other hand I lose interest at every cutscene (would rather watch an actual film) and do find the games a bit of a chore.
That why I like games with less talk and more gameplay. DOOM was exactly that, in spades.
Also enjoying SMO at the moment too, which would typically fit this mould, but that's working well in 20 minute chunks in portable mode whenever I get some spare time.

This happens in nearly every game I get in to!
I don't play that many games, and if it doesn't click after a while then I'll move on, but I lost track of time so often. I think playing most of the time late at night when my wife's gone to bed makes time fly too as I'm always conscious of it ticking away!
Recently it's happened on Picross (just one more puzzle), BotW (just get to that mountain, do that shrine etc); just one more battle on M+R; one more Salmon Run...
