Best Casual PC Games?

The game is only Gameplay, like a dungeon defender with a few unlock able characters. I don't see how it's not casual.

Osmos, a gravity themed Katamari style game with an ambient sound track.
Crayon Physics Deluxe, physics creation puzzler with a child like aesthetic.
Hexcells, Sudoku x Minesweeper again with an ambient sound track.
Peggle Deluxe, one button pinball physics game play.
Race the Sun, a solar powered craft racing a sun set. Custom sound track recommended.

Try One Finger Death Punch. Surprisingly fun game.
Dude, if you're idea of casual is dungeon of the endless, you are truly hard core
It's also disarming. I'm not sure what to suggest. What makes a game casual to you?
My idea of a casual game is Peggle. Simple mechanics, simple premise, not or veyr little story, and what there is is passively experienced.
But I think I could recommend something like Pillars of Eternity and you'd beat it in 5 minutes or something.
Edit: Given your pure gameplay explination, I'd recommend somehting like Hearthstone, Diablo 3, Torchlight 2.

I usually play the new Geometry Wars or Pinball FX for a bit if I need a short break from work. Both are games that don't require too much time, allow you to space out for a bit while still holding your attention, and still give you something to strive towards in improving your skills. I play both games with a gamepad though, especially Geometry Wars benefits from playing it like that.
I also agree with the people suggesting Audiosurf. Was hooked on that for a while.

Try something indie, like fez or braid.
You could also play civ (any civ game), it requires a lot of learning, but once you get it it's quite a nice game to sit, relax, and play.
Oh yeah, dark souls and Dota 2 have the same effect on me.

Me and my friend had a lot of fun playing Chocolatier.
It's an old game, runs in a tiny window due to poor resolution support and I think it was originally coded in Flash, but damn if it isn't addictive.
It's basically a simplified resource management / business sim / trading game where you try to buy ingredients at the best price to make increasingly extravagant chocolate and sell it for profit. As uninteresting as that may sound, it's surprisingly addictive.

This is a fantastic game. The mobile version is even better though, but it has some f2p issues (but at least you can buy unlimited lives instead of the candy crush model).

Hearthstone is my favourite way to spend 10-15 minutes.
