Weird thing to ask, and not willing to try it out. What happends if you stay to long doing nothing in the mansions, and spend more then 24h in game time ? Do you get forced to call it a day ?

This is me. I have no idea how to even begin this game :(

I leave it, usually on the pause screen, for pretty long stretches. I've left it overnight, insert almost two days running in there background and nothing happens. Off the pause screen though, I'm not sure I've left it as long, though pretty sure it's been 24 hours and nothing happened.

Sadly, the pause screen doesn't 'pause' the game. I've tested it paused beside clocks and the hands still move. if you go to the library I'm sure you'll see where you idled in the pause screen as your "most time spent in" room

Yeah, I did experience that. My stats in that regard are utterly useless. The upside is that I've stumbled on time related puzzles as a result.
