Two parameters define a casual video game to me. The first parameter is how easy it is for me to start and stop the game. The second parameter is a game that I can start playing without any tutorial. The game, Mini Motorways is an example of a casual game for me on PC. And Unpacking is one that is a casual game on PC.
