Castle Age: The FAQ

Some people are neglecting the faq sections of every game they sign up, some of them already know the do’s and don’ts of a game. I say, it would be better to read them than become a stupid on the game. Well you can say that I am one of those people who sometimes neglect reading the FAQ/Help or Guide of a game.

Some people don’t need to read the Help/FAQ of a game. Usually, some games have the same rules, but if this is your first time registering to that game then it’s better to read the Rules/Guide.

New York Times: Zynga the new Google of games?

Familiar with Farm Ville or Mafia Wars? Did you happen to hear this from you friends -- "It's time to harvest my crops," "Add me to your neighbor," "send me some gifts," or "Add me to your clan." This are just some of the popular Facebook game applications that we almost see in our wall or your friends wall. A big applause to Mark Pincus, C.E.O. of Zynga, the man behind those popular games.
