Dear YoVille Fans: Here is an update from Zynga, confirming for the first time ever, Big Viking Games efforts to #SaveYoVille from Clive Downie, Zyngas Chief Operating Officer. Were doing our best to buy back YoVille and bring it back to being the game you have all known and loved. These sort of business transactions can take some time, and well work as fastest we can to get to a positive outcome Thanks again for all your encouragement, stories, and likes! Feel free to let Dean, the author of the article (and also an industry friend of ours), known that you appreciate his continued coverage of our efforts. I know Dean appreciates your comments. Also, you should free to share this with your friends and Like our page if you like to continue to receive updates. Heres the article & key quote below: venturebeat/2014/01/31/zyngas-coo-clive-downie-describes-zyngas-new-game-plan-interview/ Downie: Right now, we run more than 30 live games that are delighting many millions of consumers every day. Some of them are well over a year old, or multiple years. We aren’t in the business of closing our products. We made a very specific decision recently with regard to YoVille. We always take a customer-centric view of our games. We value the long-term sustainability of our game communities, and we always strive to keep them active as long as possible within our game-lifecycle framework. We do have a game-lifecycle framework. It’s not a snap decision. When this can’t happen any longer, we do look for other options. In the case of YoVille, there was a dialogue with the game’s creators about a partnership that would see the game continue to be grown and sustained by them, so that’s exciting. We’re in those discussions and we hope we can conclude them sometime soon and move on.
