Look around your average casual games site and you're likely to think you have double-vision. Clones and copy-cats abound, whether it's the latest gem-swapping game or the next version on Sudoku.

Casual gamers, the argument goes, don't want something new - all they want is the same safe gameplay in a new package. Nobody is interested in innovation.
