Solitaire Bliss asked gamers across the country to tell them about their video gaming habits on phones, consoles, and computers.

Video games are often considered a new American pastime, especially with the introduction of new VR platforms like the Metaverse. But just how much time do gamers spend online — and what would they be willing to sacrifice?

Solitaire Bliss wanted to find the answer to this question and asked 2,000 gamers about their gaming habits.

Key Findings:

  • Ohio, Michigan and Texas gamers played the most — with 2 average work days worth of game playing per week (17 hours).
  • Just over 2 in 5 gamers (42%) play on their phones every day.
  • Women were more likely than men to play video games on their phones (69% vs. 58 % of men)
  • Gamers spend the most time playing on consoles (6 hours per week), followed by mobile devices (4 hours per week).
  • On average, nearly half (45%) of gamers have played video games during work.
  • 72% of gamers have sacrificed sleep to continue gaming, while 40% have skipped meals to keep playing.
  • 32% of gamers would forego a social event to continue playing as well.
