1. I'm currently battling myself to know if this sentence is correct or not, 時間をゲームするために過ごす seems correct to me but adding a を doesn't. If it isn't correct please paraphrase it

  2. Is there even a difference with adding a を to a 漢語名詞 ?

question
grammar
Is this sentence correct? 時間をゲームをするために過ごす (spend your time in order to play games)
I would not use 過ごす in this context; I would prefer ゲームに時間を費【つい】やす, ゲームに時間を使う,
ゲームするのに時間をかける etc.

「有意義な時間を過ごす」「楽しい時間を過ごす」「家族と時間を過ごす」are perfectly fine, but somehow I find
時間をゲームするために過ごす or 時間をゲームに過ごす extremely unnatural or even at the verge of being
ungrammatical.
