If they're not eating or playing, they're usually sleeping! Rats are nocturnal, so they sleep during the day and are most active at night. However, rats are great at adjusting to your schedule, so if you play with them during they day, they'll learn to sleep more at night.
And I wouldn't worry about playing with them too much. Yes, they sleep a lot, but they also love getting to play and explore. If they do get tired, they'll let you know--mine either go back to their cage, or simply curl up next to me and take a nap!
