You guys know Zynga, right? The mega-popular mobile app developer? Their games always sell in the millions, but critics say that all their games are uninspired clones of other successful games. For example, FarmVille is similar to Harvest Moon, Words With Friends is basically Scrabble with a different title, and Pictionary Rip-Off bears an odd resemblance to Pictionary.
Well, Zynga has announced some of their upcoming games! Will they break the trend of imitating games from other companies? Ha ha, of course not. Here’s the list of the games they’re making now:
| Game Title | Game it is Based Off Of |
| Chef Ville | Cooking Mama, Diner Dash |
| The Ville | The Sims |
| The Fortune Wheel | Wheel of Fortune |
| Dog Ville | Nintendogs |
| Resident e Ville | Resident Evil |
| Cry Like a Baby Ville | Metroid: Other M |
| CastleVillenia | Castlevania |
| Completely Overcrowded Ville | New York City |
OK, fine, I made all those up, except the first two. Zynga is also making FarmVille 2, for those of you who are interested in the company and its exciting innovations in the world of gaming.
I heard about The ‘Ville. Isn’t it supposed to contain adult themes?
Lol, Resident e Ville. I can actually see that happening.
