City of Wonder Review
As a huge fan of Sid Meier's Civilization from many years ago, I have been waiting for the game to launch on Facebook. While we're waiting for what seems like an eternity, we can enjoy City of Wonder now. City of Wonder is the closest you can get to this classic on a social media network.
Pop Boom Review
The 3-in-a-row puzzle, with its many varieties and twists and turns, has been among the most popular genres for casual games on every single device and platform, except for Facebook.

CrowdStar aims to change that with their latest game, Pop Boom. Though not revolutionary, Pop Boom adds enough twists to stand out in the 3-in-row puzzle crowd.
