This research examines description of Flow Experience on online gaming experiences. The study aims to explore the depiction of experiences based on the 9 dimensions of Flow Experience for individuals who play online games. The topic of this research is important because the large number of people playing online games in today's digital age can trigger deep experiences related to engagement or full focus while playing, which can impact their experiences, behavior, and daily lives, either positively or negatively. Internet usage in Indonesia has grown rapidly, with most people using it to play online games as a means of communication, self-expression, and entertainment. This study uses a qualitative method in its research. Data collection was conducted on 10 participants selected through purposive sampling techniques. The results of this study indicate the influence of flow experience on online gaming, leading to full engagement, high concentration, and a loss of time perception among players.
Practical implications that can be undertaken include the need for education on digital literacy, time management, and strengthening positive social interactions in games to ensure that the gaming experience remains adaptive and supports psychological well-being.
