How many hours do you put into one game?

[GGracchus]

Two to three hours on standard sized maps. I do play standard/normal, so I get less time than those who play marathon.

stfoskey, thanks for necroing the thread.

Usually takes me 8 hours to play a standard size game. I play slowly.

I had 50ishs hours games ( normally huge maps with some variant that forces heavy human intervention ( say, lots of espionage ( spy use is almost impossible to automatize and the UI for espionage stuff is simply dreadful ) or lots of military units ), but normally i don't pass the 8 h per game.

I play games which end up being about 20-30 hours if I finish them, and I once played for 17 hours straight.

Can win Culture games in under 2 hours, warmongering games take around 3-4.

4 -6 hours.

As I often minimize game, I cant take that "time" as real one.. But it could be around 50 clean gaming hrs for 1 real game (Mar/Hug/18 civs)... I just love to spend time with CIV (sounds funny)

For single player games, anywhere from a few hours (quick fix) to 50 or so, perhaps averaging 10-20.

If I count multiplayer Pitboss games which last 6-12 months at a turn a day... it can sometimes go into the hundreds of hours per game.
