They claimed that apart from not being able to concentrate on anything else other than the game, the children also faced sleeping disorders like shouting "maar maar" while sleeping!The game can be, honestly, quite addicting. And many who got addicted became victims of unfortunate circumstances. If you google "Most bizarre PUBG related accidents, you'll find some really unpleasant stuff.
