^This. Heck, my wife doesn't even watch tv (seriously). That said, I gave her an iPad (I'm thinking it was a waste of $ at the time, but she kept taking mine, so I assumed she wanted one) and to my surprise, she did play one game a while back: Bejeweled. Other than that, she keeps bugging me why I need more than one console cause they are all the 'same".

Cut the Rope is really good for casuals and gamers. It's cute, simple, quick and has plenty of levels.

Thanks for all the recommendations! I started responding to all of you in one combined post, but it got too long and was too off topic. So, just thanks.

Mine loves Jewel Quest, #2 especially. Also Fairway Solitaire.

My wife was obsessed with Bejeweled, which is ridiculous to me...

I think *everybody* gets obsessed with their first match-3 game. I certainly loved it, until endless mode beat it out of me.

My wife doesn't play games at all really, but she's been hooked on Spelltower the past couple of weeks.

My wife and I are both hooked on Fairway Solitaire. We fight over the iPad because of it.

I dont have a wife.

On the iPad my ball and chain plays Draw Something, Buddy Bones, also hidden object and dash games. She plays Bejeweld 3 and Battlefield 1943 on ps3.

Thanks for posting. It's awesome!

DL'd the iphone version and it plays well. But got fed up with the small screen and paid the the buck for the ipad version

My wife is the total opposite she loves to try and out level me in any game we get. From iPad to 360 and now on the PC so its just a competition match now. My only saving grace is she still has a problem with FPS games so my CoD and BF games are my saving graces lol.

I just bought this last night, it's great. I had already owned Faerie Solitaire and this is similar but way better.

I think it's about time to make this thread a sticky.

should i play squids before Squids WW?

Just noticed that Stick Tennis free at the moment. Not played it yet but I've always enjoyed Stick Cricket so hopefully this won't disappoint.

It would help introduce the characters. The description shows that the story itself is all inclosed in WW. I recommend Squids it's fun.

Is that an intro price or regular? I realized that I have Squids, but never got around to launching the app...
