addicting is a verbal adjective
addictive is an adjective
Addictive works in both cases grammatically. As a pure adjective modifying a noun in the first case and as a substantive adjective in the second.
Addicting is also correct, try replacing it with "trying" (as in trying your patience)
That is a trying game.
That game is trying.
I was wondering what everyone uses.
