I got pretty addicted to that. Then it started all over again when it became its own seperate game in Sonic Mega Collection.

I remember that! Man, I got to like level two hundred and something (or maybe it was one hundred and something; it was so long ago I forget, quite far either way)...and then lost the code.
I'm gonna mention a pretty obscure one. The game Time Stalkers (aka "Climax Landers") on the Dreamcast, though it wasn't that good in my mind in and of itself, had an addicting VMU minigame called "Dungeon IV". You basically ran around in a Phantasy Star-esque dungeon, killing baddies, leveling up, getting better stuff, descending further down into the dungeon, etc. The battles weren't turn-based, and once you died, that's it. It might sound a little boring, but I actually found it quite fun. I think I ran out the VMU's batteries a couple of times from playing this game.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
