CityVille
CityVille was a fantastic City Building, Construction and Management Simulation by Zynga, the creator of biggest titles such as FarmVille and Draw Something. Back in the day the game allowed the players to be the owner of a whole new City and develop it from scratch by erecting buildings, developing markets, businesses and by collecting taxes, and resources, etc. The basic task of the players was to start developing the City and eventually turn it into a massive Metropolis. Visiting the neighboring Cities, trading for resources, building diplomatic ties and strengthening the economy were the most important and promising parts of the game. As the City grew, the players were rewarded with experience points along with the reputation points that they could use to buy upgrades, energy and loads of other great things. The players could also earn the CityVille currencies such as CV Cash and CV Coins and spend them to acquire some of the most special items from the in-game store. With a variety of tasks that the players could do, amazingly addictive gameplay and beautiful 3D visuals, CityVille was a fun Construction and Management Simulation to enjoy until it was closed down in late 2011 because of some undisclosed reasons. From the day on, the game is no longer available on any of the servers but a number of groups are trying to revive the game. Hopefully there will be another game someday that will offer the same fantastic things that the CityVille did.
