OK, casual game creators, what percentage of the games you play
*strictly* for pleasure are casual/social games?

Strictly for pleasure or strictly for pleasure including after I
originally started playing them for research?

This is Year over Year and constitutes 10% of my gaming when normalized
against two years of WoW, (but increasing since I no longer raid):

The two games that approach casual that I played for pleasure (but have
noteable hardcore elements):

Oasis (now Defense of the oasis on the ipad)
Bookworm Adventures (Thanks John Vechey for the complimentary copy while
I
was trying to boot strap my own thing and couldn't spare the diaper
money)

The two social games that I played for pleasure:

Bushwhacker by DJArts
Nanostars: Siege by Digital Chocolate

I acknowledge my tastes run to the contrary of the mass market.

I split my gaming about 60/40 between casual games and more hard-core
games.
I play a little more on the casual side because I usually don't have a
lot
of time to sit down and spend play games.
