Casual games can have any type of gameplay, and fit in any genre. They are typically distinguished by their simple rules and lack of commitment required in contrast to more complex hardcore games. These are the games, users don't need to possess any special computer skills to play them and therefore they are so popular nowadays. The word "casual" indicates that the games are produced for the casual consumer, who comes across the game and can get into gameplay almost immediately.



Casual games are getting more and more popular, especially the Hidden Object Genre of those, Action & Arcade Games, Time Management games, different simulators (store-, restaurant-, farm-models etc.), logical games and, it's unbelievable, children games (adults often enjoy playing them).

You need to turn on the computer and start up the game installation file. That's it. Installation program will tell you what to do next. After installation is over, as a rule, you'll always find the way to get the game started up automatically. And right here the most interesting thing happens! Most of us assimilate to the drug-users, we become game-addicted, in positive meaning of the word and keep playing the game (if favorable circumstances) till the eyes are heavy, till your grumbling boss (or wife) drives your off the computer. Playing process tightens you up much, your thoughts occupy the game only, when a spare moment happens and you face a choice : to go get the trash out or to play your favorite shooter game? your choice is so predictable: trash might not be thrown away till the game is over!

Why do things happen this way?

Things are really easy to understand. Researchers' resume such a way of human behavior depends on our brain self-protecting instinct, as we are so deeply loaded with our daily routine matters and charged with our job highly, our brain gets overloaded with information flood and warms up sensu stricto; this can lead to unpredictable consequences. Academicians of different science-brunches were known to get mad or their brains got injured seriously while trying to acquire a food of new information .

While playing a computer game the one switches on it completely, leaves all the rest of thoughts away and the brain gets a bit of rest . Occurrences often happen, when you can't get the office worker off a simple mini-computer game playing.

Highly recommend you, my dear Sirs, to rest a bit from your job and daily routine, let your head relax while playing interesting mini-games!
