  • Hasbro To Make Toys Based On Zynga Games

    Hasbro, the famous toy manufacturer, has acquired a license to develop some awesome toys based on some of the more memorable games by Zynga. Zynga has created a dozen Facebook games which became phenomenal due to their addictiveness and huge following. The possibilities of real life incarnations of some of the most played games on Facebook are endless.

    I can just imagine playing a physical version of Words With Friends or Farmville. Mafia Wars might also make an appearance. Hasbro owns the rights to a lot of famous IPs, from super heroes to fairy tales. Combining these two together could result in some of the most fun action figures / board games we’ve seen in a while.

    Zynga was knee deep in accusations from various game manufacturers for copying their ideas and mimicking them into their own games, but Zynga still stands strong as being a larger part of Facebook revenue and one of the most notable gaming studios.

  • Zynga Copies Another Facebook Game

    Zynga, a popular game-studio that designs Facebook games, has again been pointed the finger at for copying another game for their own release. They are the creators behind the enormously famous Farmville and Mafia Wars. They are also very well-known for taking design and gameplay concepts from other smaller studios and copying it for their own use without any courtesy for the original game makers.

    A smaller gaming studio accused Zynga of copying their game “Tiny Tower” and creating their own called “Dream Heights”. This week a studio called Buffalo Studios accused them for stealing their gaming concept from Venture Beats and creating their own game called “Buffalo’s Bingo Blitz”.

    People are now starting to hate this gaming company, they very smoothly copy big ideas from smaller companies and make them into their own. I don’t believe in not copying ideas, but proper courtesy is necessary if you’re working on someone else’ creation.
