Peggle on Minesweeper - how do you play this?
Casual Games. It is a horrible, snobby record. There is something paternalistic about this topic - as is so lonely, because he is 70 hours in history, or a hundred rendering scenes, which is slightly less than a game.
He ignores the fact that many people may be more hours of recording time on your business, every player in World of Warcraft, and even less to a serious player in a direct competition.
The biggest problem with the "casual" as a definition that it means nothing. You can enter up to 3 filming preamble to regen at a breakfast, but it does not matter. The lack of complexity may not play more that an informal complicated, like the fact that you can learn on a computer to play chess champion, but now we have not a prayer, a good game Go On.
Quake Live, you can jump into the game directly from the Web browser, but no one will be your opportunity tic Deathmatch traffic good time killer. However, it can happen, if we say what you think: "I know that when I see it."
What you see is not necessarily the size of the market. More than 70 percent of the people who pay to play Peggle and taste of women, and not even as a player. Games are boring to close a few minutes here and there not be a lifestyle. But we can assure you that one of the largest in the world of games scheduled services now on your PC.
Yes Minesweeper
Interestingly, Solitaire and Minesweeper were never designed, as the killers of productivity, we all know and love, but as hated as the "edutainment". When Windows first success in the streets around the world used to the interfaces in the command line and must be the best way to deal with the mouse.
Minesweeper is a simple application to understand the two mouse buttons (clicking the left mouse button to find a niche, click on a flag on the square), in demonstrating the art solitaire drag. The fact that they were in each office to office clerks, if they are a little boring, not something that is unnoticed.
Many games from the era, including the original game Leisure Suit Larry, has a "Boss Key", which the player can make a request for assistance from the game at any time. (We have something similar in the office, Microsoft Excel, apparently from Team Fortress 2, if it is on the work of the Games.)
In addition to these initial dalliances, casual games on a home on the PC at the moment. There were simple games, shareware, in general, but we think differently. Since the systems are more, many problems are obvious.
The first games on the PC could be a nightmare to run, and are usually expensive. The arcade games waiting pretty damn nearly everything else, the PC and the idea that the team has the task, and not exactly in the Help.
If we are to search for games, we wanted to fleshy Price - adventure games, role playing, strategy games. If I wanted something simple, buy an Amiga, or God help you, an Atari ST. Or course, a console. Even now, the words "casual players" can also mean a person accidentally in a train, he intensively on a Game Boy, lost in the world Tetris.
Consoles are ideal for occasional games. No body, no high-end hardware, nothing to lose, except for a few minutes of your time. You can change the game, until they needed, and press everything in your pocket.
Simple games, like the king of the zoo, which have brought more than anyone else, just a few minutes. We are not yet to the point where we can with our PC, but in recent years, we have something almost as good. Instead of the handheld consoles, we have the Web browser.
Instead, pay £ 20 £ 30 for a console, the world is our house. There were occasional games before the Internet - as a puzzle or Supaplex The Incredible Machine or Pipemania - but it was the internet, that really the kind created.
Glorious Time
Regardless of the casual nature comes into play, share some fundamental characteristics. You have the possibility before you buy - or a variety of levels, or 60 minutes of the meeting. It is cheaper, you can use the procedure, to say: "Yes, okay, and buy, without the great soul. With success comes with a nearly one billion clones.
Gateway to the Home page of the online games ever, the quality of the quantity of crude oil and developers are always on the lookout for the next big thing.
Popular targets include Diner Dash (seated, and also as a client without end), object-games (in general, the challenge is that the sail area or whatever you want, is that currently 20 meters high and part of the silhouette of the city) and everything is words from a mix of letters.
This May game well, but they are rather difficult to leave - especially if someone do all the work done, hard to get pleasure principle. Clone most frequently in recent years is a "game-three" game, one of the icons located on the horizontal, vertical or diagonal lines of at least three. It sounds so simple, as it is.
Thursday Bejeweled popular during the monitoring, Bejeweled Twist, is to facilitate the exchange of color gemstones for a clockwise rotation. This seemingly small rotation immediately makes the game tactically, and focuses on the fulfillment of certain colors in the correct order and not just the transmission.
One option is further advanced Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the warlords involved in the same basic idea in an RPG world is thrown into the magic and the items in stock, jewelry and other things as needed. The colors, the magical, diamonds, has more experience with the end of the battle, and the skull contracts damaged opponents. The same basic idea, such as Bejeweled, but quite different to their own thing.
Then Galactrix makes something similar to change seats on board a hexagon, the addition of precious stones from all directions, and into the room instead of a Kingdom fantastic.
The brightness of the gold
Among the numerous developers of games occasionally, PopCap, by far, is impressive - and less opportunity traffic. His first games were starting and there, but the first, Bejeweled, has drawn the attention of the Internet (and especially on the website of the comedy Old Murray) in a big way.
PopCap quickly approaches its name is relatively good, but the polish until it shone. Rocket Mania Pipemania is simply the rockets, but the speed and more explosions, more fun to kill, just a few minutes.
Zuma, who little more than an old game called Puzz Loop (something that the original author is not too happy), has taken the initiative from the color of the balls around the track Aztec theme.
Since the games on laminates, the production is more and more until the Bookworm Adventures, the challenges for the entire genre. It took two years to create, and a budget of $ 700,000 - nothing compared to a great game, very good, but the money for an uncommon. Five minutes of the game show that the money has been lost ... but we were too long to speak without too much: Peggle.
Before the head. Peggle is by far the best game, occasionally over the years - a nice mix of Pinball, Pachinko, magnificent graphics, and more poignant chorus of Ode to Joy never in a shooter about unicorns money on the balls of money pines.
He demonstrated the art of casual games, like some others, especially significant as it is a simple framework is as important as that is. The original "delete all anchors orange was originally only one of many in a game that is much more activity in several shooting ball.
Time and concentrated on a small deviation in most of the game of the year with a good margin of time. This has to follow, Peggle Nights, and a free Half-Life/Team Fortress 2 spin-offs in the context of the Orange Box.
Needless to say that this is not a bad position to play occasionally choice for all "good" game world.
Dial-a-game
As games have occasional simple puzzle, we have an unusual trend - Games that try to be faster than just a diversion. On the PC this is usually done by adding a description of the story - or at least a year.
Gabriel Knight, Jane Jensen, designer two of the narrative focuses more offers - and BeTrapped Inspector Parker - with a reasonable amount of success. Inspector Parker is a style of the game Clue, the breakthrough secrets very literally by deduction - the elimination of all possibilities until the truth. Minesweeper BeTrapped effective, with the twist that the rooms are in a house, and had the conversation between the phases adventure bit.
Another was from the big industry, and how things Snob. Developers have a range (usually a single quarter arsed) in equal parts in a game can play on your mobile phone. How seriously was, in general?
Five words. Prince of Persia: Harem Adventures. You want to hear the amount? Of course you do: "The women of the sultan were removed from the vizier to carry out experiments on abstinence. Sultan's real mad!" He no longer knows how their wishes. Seven female prisoners - and may not be free and back to life!
No, but seriously. Die
Casual games on mobile phones
There are many casual games on phones, especially if the picture from the iPhone. A combination of touchscreen and the gold is in the iTunes Store, you may not be one of the main funders of something interesting and inventive step. You can also requests to fart and flashlights, but also the point.
Some of the best understood Trismus (one game and three derivatives), the liquid is treated and Enigma in the autumn, when the structure of Tetris has more and more against the physics, and the building of their own care. It is closer than the iPhone is currently the world's enormous Goo - simply the best game Peggle occasional services companies. Unless you Peggle Nights. But it would be free. (Peggle!)
World of Good
In addition to web browsers, the greatest support in the market for PC games casual partners, the Xbox 360 - especially the Live Arcade. Development of Microsoft XNA platform, it is easy to develop on PC and console simultaneously.
Simple games tend to be better on the Live Arcade - polished, with a small budget, preferably because of something that stimulates the glands, to the harrowing longing - the big leap to the PC with a simple no. The time of deformation of the platform game Braid is one of the most exciting of the last, and you can not beat a rapid explosion of Geometry Wars.
World of Goo is, however, the state of the art in the field of casual games to go. At the same time so simple that it is - goo all pieces are liable for the solution of the problems - and spectacular, with its design, the metaphors and challenges.
It is the perfect example of how details of the weld can be something really convincing, or how the mouse and deformed, like the adventure on the screen or the ease with which the trains, to think in terms of natural images. If you look at the definition of an occasional game or not, we do not know. For us this is the proof that there is nothing temporary.
For more rugged and price structure, the websites in flash are always handy. The games are generally easy to sound banal, until the diabolical strategy underlies something simple like a cube vehicles across a network, or the cover to beat a friend of the highest possible rating.
Auditorium is quite simply the last in a long line of attention on the desktop. Everything you need to do is, the light in the music through the redirection of workflow assistance - but "all" is not the word.
Casual Friday
The future of casual games is no doubt. Like all indie releases, not a guaranteed a huge slice of cake from the big money, but there are many developers who are on the next big thing, so many customers willing to abandon books a little bit off for them, the big portals and successful companies not walk.
In some cases, the developers even more food, apparently for the lunch - PopCap as the publisher and developer, and the acquisition of the former Mumbo Jumbo FPS necessarily Ritual (Sin: Episodes) for simple entertainment. In many cases, the games that we are apart of the process are simple really boring waste, the world does not need another copy.
During the work, but the magic is born. We have all the time of death at the hands to fill, we all had times when we are back on TV just to watch. When you click the perfect entertainment, the perfect distraction soon.
