So, one of the things that’s come up again and again among the bunch of us at Self Aware was that Word Ace and Card Ace (coming soon on the iPhone) are really perfect games for people with new kids.
A handful of people we know have had children recently, and while we were beta testing Word Ace, a lot of our testers were nursing moms, who really appreciated a game like Word Ace, where it wasn’t super-frantic, and they could play it with one hand, with friends online at any time of the day.
We’d see people on at 2am for half an hour at a stretch, and know exactly why they were online.
Last week, I had a son. He’s lying on my chest as I type this, and though clearly I’m not a nursing mom, having a game I can play while holding onto the sleeping kid is fantastic.
We’d thought about the convenience of having a game you could play with one hand – but we never expected the specific appeal to new parents. Now that I am one… well, you’ll see me online a lot. 
Cheers!
