I'm hooked

A hook, as per the dictionary definition, is something that draws
you in. In games, a hook can be a number of different things.
Often it is something visually exciting, such as beautiful
illustrations, amazingly detailed miniatures, realistic resources
or some sort of physical component that is integral to gameplay.
Hooks can also be an interesting theme, an exciting gameplay
mechanism or even the background story behind how a game was
made. Certain awards or even the price of a game can be a hook
too. Ultimately it’s about finding something that grabs your
attention and gets you to take a closer look.
