Best of Casual Gameplay 2006

It is difficult to believe another year has passed, but we have tons of games and reviews to show for it. And what better way to celebrate the year than with a look back to give credit where credit is due by giving props to those special titles that stood head and shoulders above the rest. This will be our third annual "Best of" feature and, like each year before, we invite you to participate.

This year we are doing things a little differently than previous years, however. The nominations for the year's best games were hand-selected by us from all reviews published here within the calendar year, 2006. We have identified several categories and we will be choosing one from each to represent the year's Best Casual Gameplay of 2006.

You can play along by voting for one game in each category. Simply click the "Vote" button under the entry of your choice on each of the following pages. You don't have to vote in every category, but we ask that you limit your voting to only one game per category. Once you vote for a game, you will be automatically taken to the next page, and you will not be able to change your vote. So think carefully about each selection.

We will publish the results along with our picks right here beginning on January 1st, 2007! Thank you for all your visits, your comments, and your support. All of us here at JIG Casual Gameplay would like to wish you a very happy new year.
