Game: The Smurfs & Co

Something about the Smurfs license is terribly friendly to social gaming, especially of the city-building variety. The Smurfs & Co takes more cues from FrontierVille than Capcom's Smurfs social game, Smurfs' Village, but actually manages to make the formula feel fresh, fun to play, and appropriate to the license. In The Smurfs & Co you've been tasked by Papa Smurf with building a new Smurf settlement as part of a complicated plot that involves making a magic potion to defeat Gargamel. For most of the game, though, you simply focus on trying to chop down weeds, build Smurfy buildings, and attract more Smurfs to your village.
