A timed version is also included so you can find out how you’re doing in the past week, month, etc. Players also can compete against one another to see who can build the most impressive city and who can become the District VIP - the more you check into a district and visit, the better your chances of getting more bonuses and prizes.Ī leaderboard will be featured in the game that will show the players with the biggest and most impressive city. Other interactive features include having a “do-rameter” that will help guide users through all the activities in the game in order to be rewarded while also helping to keep them caught in the moment. It is then your choice to live out that scenario in CityVille 2 and, along the way, meet up with a cast of characters to find out who did it, very similar to how you would solve the mystery on Clue. The game involves all the typical features you might expect from a Zynga game with a “build-it-yourself” mentality, while also having a narrative feature to it - one of the main stories players will come across is what happens when a mansion mysteriously burns to the ground. The game allows players to create their own 3-D metropolis, almost like you would expect with Sim City or Civilization (although it doesn’t consider itself to be a replacement to either game) with different activities and events taking place during the day and at night.
The team wanted to think about the city beyond just a game, but also as a toybox allowing players’ minds to go wild. The focus was that Zynga wanted to find a way to really re-engage players while also preserving what made the original CityVille cool. Creating The Next 100 Million User Gameĭesigned by Brian Reynolds, the creative guy behind Frontierville, CityVille 2 is the next evolution of the two-year old game that has attracted and captivated the minds of millions people (at its peak 100 million monthly average users). CityVille 2 might be the spark that ignites that revitalization. Sean Ryan, the social network’s head of gaming partnerships, said that he believed that while Zynga had a difficult quarter, it wasn’t out of it yet - “ they will come back“, he said. He pointed out some disappointment with Zynga along with other companies on its platform so people were wondering what lay ahead for the company. This is the social gaming company’s first game since it announced earlier this month that it would be shuttering TheVille along with 13 other games, resulting in layoffs.ĭuring Facebook’s third quarter earnings call, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that social gaming wasn’t performing as well as he had hoped. Zynga has just announced the global launch of CityVille 2, the sequel to its popular CityVille game.
