Whois & Analysis for jayisgames.com

Jay Is Games (stylized as JAYISGAMES or JAY IS GAMES) is a game review website that features daily updates and links to casual games, indie games, browser games and flash games of wide interest to casual gamers.

A mobile game is a video game played on a feature phone, smartphone, smartwatch, PDA, tablet computer, portable media player or calculator.

A casual game is a video game targeted at or used by a mass audience of casual gamers.

Casual games can have any type of gameplay, and fit in any genre.

They are typically distinguished by their simple rules and lack of commitment required in contrast to more complex hardcore games.

They require no long-term time commitment or special skills to play, and there are comparatively low production and distribution costs for the producer.

Strategy guides are instruction books that contain hints or complete solutions to specific video games.

The line between strategy guides and walkthroughs is somewhat blurred, with the former often containing or being written around the latter.

Strategy guides are often published in print, both in book form and also as articles within video game magazines.

In cases of exceptionally popular game titles, guides may be sold through more mainstream publication channels, such as bookstores or even newsstands.

Some publishers also sell E-Book versions on their websites.

An independent video game (commonly referred to as an indie game) is a video game that is created without the financial support of a publisher.

Indie games often focus on innovation and rely on digital distribution.

Indie gaming saw a rise in the latter half of the 2000s, primarily due to new online distribution methods and development tools.

Some indie games have been very successful financially, such as Braid, World of Goo, Flow, and Minecraft.
