Music game main entrance: music game

Music is one of the contents of most games, so it is classified according to the game content. Music game (or rhythm game) is usually defined as a type that relies on music rhythm to make rules of the game and play the game accordingly. Main entrance of casual games: casual games

Casual games are an extremely broad category containing a large number of games, and the definition of this category is also very vague. Classification for the purpose of "games that players are allowed to play during rest and leisure time". This can be temporarily classified as "the purpose of the game", but not only the classification method is rare, but also this purpose is difficult to define.

When asked about different players, different players have different answers to "games played in leisure time". For example, Super Mario can be called a "game to play in leisure time", but some people will play fantasy tournaments in their leisure time. Obviously, these two kinds of works are completely different, but because the player's behavior is "playing games during rest and leisure time", they can both be defined as "casual games". So "casual game" is a very loose game definition.

But most players' impressions of casual games are small games that can be played in a short time and get the game effect. Therefore, casual games often refer to games with short game levels, which can be played anytime and anywhere and require less time each time. In this way, games such as Angry Birds will be classified as casual games, while works such as Civilization that can reach 10 hours in a single game are obviously not casual games.

In any case, the definition of casual games can only be said to be "the default between industries and players", and there is no rigorous statistics, so it is not recommended to define games in this way. (Note: Mario and fantasy tournaments can be defined as action games, while Angry Birds and Civilization can be defined as strategy games).

At present, small games, which can be called casual games, have developed rapidly and occupied the game market. Most of these games are distributed on portable game platforms and personal computers, which are very popular among female players. According to the survey, 74% of casual gamers are female gamers. It is worth mentioning that the antonym of foreign casual games is "hardcore games" (also often translated as hardcore games). Main entrance of sports games: sports games
