Amazon.com has launched a digital distribution service for casual games, according to Shacknews.

There are over 500 titles available for download at the new "Game Downloads" section of the site, all priced in the $6.99 to $9.99 range. Also, for a limited time, Jewel Quest II, Build-a-lot, and The Scruffs, are being offered for free. There are also plans to expand the selection past casual games at some point.

"We always want to offer the widest selection possible, just like we've done with our boxed games over the past two years," Amazon VP of video games and software Greg Hart told Kotaku.

Each game will have a trial version and will be acquirable through the Amazon Games & Software Downloader, a small 3MB download. Check it out and let us know what you think.
