Busy adults, especially women, saw that games could have a valuable place in their lives and offer you more than empty calories.” How FarmVille came to beīefore FarmVille, Zynga’s most successful game was Zynga Poker. FarmVille sparked a new category of ‘invest-and-express’ games, where players could invest time and express themselves to friends and family.
“Games could also connect groups of people and bring them closer together. “FarmVille demonstrated that a game could be a living, always-on service that could deliver daily surprise and delight, similar to a favorite TV series,” Pincus wrote. I wanted to share the story of how we created it and why it has played such an important role in the evolution of gaming. Tomorrow, Zynga shuts down FarmVille on Facebook after 11 years. Mark Pincus, cofounder and former CEO of Zynga, memorialized the 11-year-old game in a series of tweets. Zynga stopped accepting payments in the game in November, and it offered a bonus package to those who migrate to FarmVille: Tropic Escape. Those who are still playing can migrate to FarmVille: Tropic Escape or play games on the browser such as FarmVille2: Tropic Escape, FarmVille 2: Country Escape and FarmVille 2. Rather than adapt the original game to run on HTML5, Zynga chose to shut down the social game. And that means Flash-based FarmVille will no longer run. After today, Flash will no longer be supported by browsers and Facebook, as it has been surpassed by web technologies such as HTML5.
