Anyone else play Innkeeper a lot?

I have a busy unpredictable schedule, and most times I don't get that 20 minute stretch with no interruptions I'd like for a game. With Innkeeper I can go at my own pace, not worry about roping, and test new deck ideas. Expert Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior are good aggro tests that can indicate if my deck's solid.
Yes I could try Casual more, but my interruptions (kids, especially) will mess up my focus.

Hey Purist.
If you're still about, I recommend the solo adventures. It will be a few thousand gold all-in to buy them, but they don't usually have any roping to them. Plus, if you quite the game (or idle out completely), it will reconnect right back into the turn you were on.
The cards tend to be less applicable to constructed play, but the general mechanics is the same.
Whenever I make a new deck I always test it first against the expert innkeeper (specifically Shaman). I basically use that to get a "feel" of the deck and make sure it works as intended (e.g. Is there enough draw? Are there enough early-game minions? Does the combo work? Do any cards stand out as really strong or too situational? Does the deck have enough top end? Etc.). After I've done this I'll take it onto ladder for proper testing and refining, but I like the innkeeper as a low-stakes first test.
