Which in-game mini-game completely derailed your main playthrough?

According to personal gameplay logs, side activities often consume more hours than critical path objectives. In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, tracking down rare Gwent cards easily took priority over locating Ciri, turning a high-stakes fantasy narrative into an obsessive regional card tournament.

Whether it is perfecting fishing spots in Final Fantasy XV, managing the cabaret club in Yakuza 0, or mastering the casino tables in Fallout: New Vegas, developers frequently tuck entire separate games into their worlds. Which mini-game completely hijacked your attention?

The cabaret club in Yakuza 0 honestly felt like robbery in the best way possible. I grabbed the game on a deep sale expecting a standard beat-em-up, and suddenly I was sinking endless hours into coordinating hostess shifts, buying dresses, and dominating rival clubs. When a developer tucks an entire polished management sim into a game for free, the value per hour goes through the roof. Pretty sure I forgot what the actual plot was about.
