In the last gift guide we covered some sweet desktop apps for your PC. This week we’ll start to take a look at games and one of the most popular categories is for casual games. These could be puzzle games, card games, etc. Don’t let the name fool you though, many of these games are highly addictive and before you know it hours out of your day are gone! Not that it’s necessarily a bad thing though!
Remember, Impulse has gift cards available so a friend or family can pick out their own games.
You can view the Casual games category on Impulse here, but these are some games I recommend.
Peggle Nights
This is one of my personal favorite games, and one that you can play over, over, and over. There are several different game modes like Quick Play, Duel, and more. If you have to get one casual game this year- go for Peggle Nights. ($9.95)
Puzzle Quest 2
Puzzle Quest 2 is a puzzle game set in a fantasy world with weapons, creatures and minigames. Customization of your character is possible with several different types of classes. ($14.99)
Plants vs Zombies GOTY
This is a very popular game, and because it includes zombies how could it not? This action strategy game from PopCap puts you in the action of stopping a horde of zombies that are invading your home. ($9.95)
Luxor 3
Luxor 3 from MumboJumbo is a must-have for any Luxor fans. Several game modes are included and you call use the power of the gods to bring you supernatural power-ups to complete your missions. ($9.99)
