Another brainchild of topnotch social games developer, Playfish (Electronic Arts), Hotel City has recently invaded the world of Facebook. This hotel simulation game lets players experience how it is to own and manage one’s very own hotel. To keep the hotel thriving, the player is in charge of adding rooms, room decorations (like wallpapers, chairs, tables, lamps, etc.), hiring friends as hotel staff, and building amenities (like a swimming pool, gym, and a restaurant).

The game starts out with a brief and simple tutorial, then the player is given the liberty decorate the hotel building as he or she wishes. Purchasing decorations and other hotel features help increase profits in the long run. Like other games, initially there are only a few decorating options. As the player increases his or her level, more furnishings are made available.

Like any real hotel, income is generated when customers use the rooms and hotel facilities. Guests pay more in larger rooms and rooms with more furniture. In addition, these rooms earn higher ratings; and the higher the rating, the more popular the hotel is.

Aside from waiting for customers to get a room, there are 2 other ways to earn coins: by poking a sleeping guest and by visiting friends’ hotels.

Hotel City is a combination of Playfish’s other game, Restaurant City, and the Chinese Play Crab’s Happy Hotel. Despite the fact that the game is new, it already has over 76 thousand monthly active users.

It is easy to get hooked to the game, especially with its designing freedom and startup budget. To play, click HERE.

The Super Bowl season had just ended but that does not mean that so will the craze. In fact, the football fever is just about to hit Facebook.

In an interview on Bloomberg Television, EA (Electronic Arts) Sports president, Peter Moore, said that a Facebook version of Madden NFL will soon be released on the social networking site to make the game more accessible. Taking advantage of Facebook’s 400 million users may be just the right move. However, unlike the Madden NFL that we are used to, Facebook Madden will be a lot less complicated than its console versions. In addition, like all games on Facebook, it will be free-to-play.

Madden NFL is a bestselling American football video game. The game is named after John Madden, a Professional Football Hall of Famer, a successful former Super Bowl coach for the Oakland Raiders, and a retired sports commentator.

This move is in line with, EA’s Chief Executive Officer, John Riccitiello’s goals for the company: to increase sales from games published online and on mobile gadgets. They have already started bringing EA games to Facebook with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 and FIFA 09 (Fédération Internationale de Football Association).

Unfortunately for us who are eager to see the Facebook version of Madden NFL, the release date has not yet been decided and announced. Let us just hope that it will be really soon.
