incremental time

German translation: eine Stunde Spielvergnügen

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:one hour of incremental time
German translation:eine Stunde Spielvergnügen

English term or phrase: incremental time
within the hotel brochure it talks about in room entertainment:Here is the sentence:
"the charges are based on one hour of incremental time. and not per game."
I understand what they are saying, but I am not sure what the typical expression in German would be for that: is "inkremental" used in this context?
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

Notes to answerer
Asker: ja, passt wunderbar und viel besser als "inkremental"; damit kann bestimmt keiner was anfangen

agree  BrigitteHilgner: Genau - das Hotel will ja, dass die Leute dort ihre Zeit und ihr Geld verschwenden - da muss man es positiv formulieren. ;-)

Explanation:
Da man die Stunde (incremental) ja scheinbar über mehrere Tage stückeln kann (so interpretier ich das zumindest), würde ioch das hier evtl bevorzugen. Andererseits auch nicht, da ich das so verstehe, dass man eine Stunde kauft und die dann stückeln kann.
Nur mal als Idee.
