Zynga quietly releases new Sims-style game, Party Place
Between lawsuits, studio closings, layoffs, and a rocky relationship with Facebook, Zynga has had a rough year. But the recent release of a new and original game shows the company isn't ready to call it quits just yet. Party Place is a social game for mobile that allows you to create, customize and share your own party house, then invite friends over for a raging all-night blowout. It sports the tagline "fight and make-out with your friends", so even if you're not much of a party animal, you have to admit to at least a touch of curiosity.
