With the basic 2D version you can sit at the computer with your spouse and look for the objects together. It's a kind of co-op mode for casual games ;), but it works great. With 360 degrees this isn't as fun. The view area is limited in such case and only one person can control the camera, thus dominating the game.

They aren't all that complex and everybody seems to like them :-) If I were to make a casual game, it could be a “Find an object” game.
