my favorite casual game is probably gravinull.

what is more casual than battling in zero gravity with one hand and eating a sandvich with the other?

you could make any game a fun casual game to play, especially CSS if you get the right people.

I sort of hate the phrase "casual" games. (Even after a stint at a casual-games company.) It means whatever the speaker really wants it to mean.

That said, my definition is: "It's still fun even if you play for only five minutes every day."

Monkey Island wouldn't fit, because that's not enough time to get back into the story and to figure out what you already picked up from where and what those clues were from that piece of dialog, etc. Braid might fit, but only for the shorter puzzles. FPSes won't work, because it takes you that long to get "in the zone".

Minecraft is a favourite with a fair few of us on lopers chat...it's one of those games you go to play when you just want to chill and build cute stuff...or massive flying ships/rocket lairs/bridges etc like we have :)

Quakelive/cs strafe/surf maps with no sound, only sweet music ;) That is what casual is to me, everything else I take to serious. Have never really get the term casual right yet...

But for filling out the list Wow and minecraft is probably some games I could play without caring to much :)

Chris Sawyer's Locomotion? Wii Sport? Pac Man Adventures in Time? I play them casually.

Btw, Chris Sawyer's Locomotion is the greatest game of all time! Don't deny it.
