Do you make time each day to play? Play only when you have time? And approximately how long to you play? I play at least an hour every day when I have no serious business in my village. I am hesitant to say that I have been known to play for eight hours at a time every now and then. Don't judge, lol.

I don't play for that long, most of the time. I have a part time job and I'm a college student, so I don't have too much time. I've been really good about playing for around 30-45 minutes a day lately. I usually play in between class, homework, and work.
I talk to every villager (who is readily available - ie. - not deep in the depths of the museum) and landscape and lay paths while I have time. I, also, find all the fossils, check the shops, and see if Redd, Katrina, or Gracie are in town or if someone is at the campsite.
Honestly, I could and would play more if my animals were more diverse in their conversations and did not say the same things over and over again. In previous games, they said really funny things and had great conversations and I could play for hours and hours.

When I was in school, I barely had time to play at all because I was so busy. Now I'm taking a year off before going to college (because I just moved to a new country, sooooo), and I have so much free time, I find myself playing ACNL a lot. When I'm done with a day, I time travel. It's a nice way to spend time when I'm bored and have nothing better to do.

I'm an early riser, so I usually play for about an hour or so at the crack of dawn. Have to have early bird ordinance just to get anything done! 
I like to play it when my baby naps and there's nothing much to do, or on breaks in work.

I play for about 15-20 minutes every day, or every other day. I didn't play much this summer, though, because I was kind of bored of my town. Now that I'm trying to finish my town and complete my encyclopedias, I play more often.

I play all the time. Currently a college student, but I only take two classes in the morning then go home, so it's pretty easy to sit down for hours and play Animal Crossing. I also play a lot more now because I just started a new town, so I'm trying to unlock everything quickly.

Well currently im 23, no job, live with my parents, so I have a lot of free time.
I spend most of my day watching tv and playing animal crossing.
Unfortunately its taking up most of my time, I should be looking for a job but the game is SO DAMN ADDICTING!!!!

I play on and off throughout the day most days! I am in uni but have a lot of time between lectures and doing project work...it's nice to chill out and play it for a while 
At home it usually goes hand-in-hand with watching junk and drinking too much coffee!

I don't play it too often now because i'm resetting but I hope to get back into it.
I play all the time after school, sometimes I wait till the evening. It usually depends on what I'm feeling for. My town is always fun to walk around and do stuff in. I mostly try to just sit back and enjoy since my town is pretty much settled down. Lately though I've been trying to get my last few villagers I'm so-so about to swap places with my dreamies so I haven't just enjoyed the moment as much. On average I play 4-8 hours a day though.

I play multiple times a day, normally about two or three times for about twenty minutes. Although, if I decide to play it after 8:30pm I might be there for a while. I could play it for ages if my friends didn't come for me all the time. And if I didn't have school.

I water my flowers on the way to school- it takes 20-30 minutes. If I have time then, I check the shops- if not, I do it in 3rd class. All my important stuff (e.g. TBT business, socializing with my villagers, etc.) I do in 3rd class and/or after school.
i used to just play every night when i got home from school
but now that i'm in university i'm finding it so hard to find time to play any game at all, not just animal crossing! i feel like when i'm not in a lectures i'm at home doing extra work, or i'm just too tired to do anything after all the work i've done that day
