If it existed you’d never know. Unless you add an additional feature of preserving your characters memories across game loads. But then it’s not a common game feature.
Instant constructions and destructions. City needs a new road? Done in a second. Wind turbines and solar panels? Plopped before you could finish blinking. Pipe network to get water in and sewage out? There, it’s already flowing beneath you.
With a proper mayor, said Karen will be elevated into a 4m² mountain, over 2km above the rest of the place, where her ego from “being atop everyone else” will keep her from realizing nobody can hear her screams.
Also, “building” an entire forest also happens in a snap
Infinite wealth exploits that the average person can exploit without getting into trouble. I could especially use this feature.
Though, a more serious answer would probably be something like infinite resources you find in certain games. For example, infinite weapons in games like Fallout 3, NV, and 4 from enemies periodically respawning when you’re gone. Or in sandbox games like minecraft, how you can easily get seemingly infinite trees and bonemeal without completely destroying the ecosystem.
A challenge most people fail in video games for unfair reasons will generally be considered a badly designed element of that game by fans and critics.
Meanwhile the challenge of making it ahead in modern life, which most people fail at out of no fault of their own even if they play the cards they were dealt as smartly as possible… is considered a perfectly good design element of adult life.

On a lighter note I really wish the pinging system in games like Alex legends could be combined with a simple face recognition overlay (that only pulls from your semiprivate private network of photos with friends under certain sharing conditions) that just reminded you of people’s names and maybe very succinctly their connection with you.
I’ve been noticing a lot of movies and TV shows now adopt a video-gamey behind the car view sometimes, mostly due to how cheap and good drone footage has gotten lately
