    Empires & Allies Review

    By

    Empires & Allies is CityVille with guns. At least, on the surface. It takes the formula that has made CityVille the biggest game to ever grace Facebook, but builds off of it, adding engaging, approachable combat and a narrative that creates a true sense of progression. This leads to an overall better game, and one where you're doing more than simply building up the biggest island nation possible: you're also defending it from evil.

    Hanging With Friends Preview

    Spelling words correctly should never be a life or death situation - unless, of course, you're playing hangman. But what fun is hangman if you can't play it with a friend? The fine folks at Zynga clearly feel the same way we do on the subject, which is why they're gearing up to roll out Hanging With Friends, a multiplayer hangman game from the makers of Words With Friends.

    In the same way that FrontierVille was a clear evolution of the FarmVille formula, Zynga's first foray into strategy gaming builds off of another immensly popular game: CityVille. Set to release tomorrow, Empires & Allies is described by executive producer Amer Ajami as "CityVille meets Risk," and features elements of city building, strategy, and even player vs player combat. We managed to get a brief first look at the game in advance of its release and, really, we simply can't wait to finally get our hands on the game.

    For the uninitiated, playing a collectible card game can seem as complex as casting the spells printed on the front of each card. A lightweight mathematical discussion lies behind each lurid painting of a scantily clad sorceress, and few novices these days have the patience to work this calculated arcanery with pen and paper. It's perhaps no wonder, then, that Zynga dumbed down the experience a bit for Warstorm, an ambitious CCG that's been out for a while on Facebook. It's not a bad game, but it yields too much control to the computer in the name of accessibility, and in the process loses almost every bit of the genre's magic.

    CityVille is Zynga's long-awaited entry in the city-building genre, which has proven itself amazingly durable on Facebook. Where many city-builders must be played strictly in brief bursts, CityVille actually offers enough to do that you can spend a considerably longer amount of time with it per session. In theory you can only do things until you run out of energy, but I found myself needing to wait for things to happen more often than I found myself waiting for my energy to regenerate.

    As a kid, I'll always remember the first time I encountered New York City. Driving in the back seat of the family car up Interstate 95, I recall staring at the Manhattan skyscrapers in awe as they rose over the horizon into the skyline. Yesterday afternoon, Zynga gave me a sneak peak of its upcoming game, CityVille. It wasn't the exact same feeling as staring at Manhattan for the first time, but it sure comes close.

    Mafia Wars Review

    By

    Zynga has been quietly closing a lot of games of Mafia Wars's vintage lately, with both Street Racing and Roller Coaster Kingdom gone in the span of the past few months. Mafia Wars might have become a relic of an earlier era in social gaming in the hands of a lesser developer, but Zynga has steadfastly refused to abandon Mafia Wars and its 24.1 million active users, 8.7 million of whom are playing every day. Instead, Mafia Wars has seen a series of updates and upgrades roll out in the past year that try to bring this old text RPG into the era of more interactive, graphically rich games like FarmVille. Mafia Wars: Las Vegas is possibly Zynga's greatest success to date.
