Impulse Holiday Gift Guide - Day 1 for Casual Gamers

from JoeUser Forums

The holiday season is here, and as we have mentioned before, it’s very easy to send digital gifts to people next door, or around the globe via the Impulse Store .  I decided to create a Gift Guide for Impulse to give people some ideas for gifts, or for themselves.

Day 1 is dedicated to casual gamers.  These could be people who aren’t “hardcore” gamers, but still enjoy playing some games on their PC during leisure time.

Games for Casual Gamers:

Kitten Sanctuary

This game has been widely popular in the Stardock office.  I mean who wouldn’t want to rescue and keep the kittens safe!
World of Goo

This award winning puzzle and construction game is a must-have in any gamers’ library, casual or not.
City Rain

City Rain is another addicting game where building literally fall from the sky and rely on you to rescue and organize the cities.
Flock

This is one of my personal favorites.  You pilot a UFO while trying to herd animal life back to the Motherflocker. 
Braid

Braid is a visual masterpiece.  This is a puzzle-platformer with a “painterly” style.  Another addictive game that you will spend countless hours on.

Braid is freaking hardcore. Hardly casual.

Despite the fact that there is a lot of depth to it, I would still argue this a casual title on the surface. You can stop playing at any time without fear of losing significant progress.

It is kind of funny since the title is not listed in the causal section (g).
