Although I'm a die-hard Facebook member, I'm not much into social games. So, when a Facebook friend of mine asked me to become his neighbor on FrontierVille, I was a bit hesitant. I didn't want to get wrangled into another game where I'd have to maintain, tend, feed, or sort through anything.
I accepted his neighbor request, and then checked out the game for myself. What fun it is! Even though there are a lot of similarities to other Facebook social games, there are plenty of unique differences that make this game interesting.
The missions (projects that you can choose to participate in where, once complete, will give you a special gift item) are original, as are the encounters with the wild animals, the chance to decorate your homestead, covered wagon, General Store, and other stakes to your claim.
Zynga is planning on adding four new territories for all FrontierVille players to explore. Rattlesnake Canyon is a place where hidden riches can be claimed. Along the way, your player will encounter some pretty unsavory bandits who might need to be taught a thing or two. Gold Rush will give your player a chance to strike their own claim and find their riches within the mountains. Players must be wary of other claim jumpers, who'll do what they can to take over your fair share. Buffalo Range is a place where you can trade stock with Native Americans, and collect the native animals, including the special Iron Horse. The Oregon Trail promises to be another exciting adventure, so your player would need to stock up on ammunition, medicine, and food to take on this long and sometimes trecherous journey.
The addition of these new territories will make FrontierVille an even more exciting new addition to the Zynga family of social games.
