English term or phrase: holiday gamers
Buenas tardes,
¿Existe alguna expresión en español que sea equivalente a "holiday gamers"?

Contexto: son las instrucciones de un juego de cartas para Android

Holiday gamers listen up: this game is now available for Android.


Muchas gracias

Explanation:
I figure that in this case, holiday gamers refers to those who only play when they have a huge amount of time to kill on their hands, and may not own a console, i.e. casual gamers.

So you could translate that term as jugador ocasional or jugador casual. But I don't think you can keep "holiday gamer" as it is; I can't think of a natural and grammatically correct translation.
