CityVille Factories Coming Soon!

Zynga is finding new ways to keep the CityVille players entertained and they’re planning to bring in Factories into play: a post on the official forums informs us all that we have it coming: “A new way to play! Put on your hard hats ’cause it’s fun to fabricate! Keep a look-out for CityVille Factories!”

There are no details regarding the release date of the factories in CityVille, nor what they will do, but we can take a wild guess here: factories will be used to produce special materials in CityVille that will be later used to complete more special structures (maybe the Wonders that are coming soon?). Either way, it will certainly be a nice change in terms of gameplay that will bring some more diversity to the game!

Stay tuned as we’ll post more about the CityVille factories as soon as we have the details!

CityVille's FarmVille Promo Quest


we've known that Zynga would be launching a cross-promotion between their two biggest games, Farmville and Cityville. However, the details have been shaky at best concerning this new promotion, as some users have reported seeing a CityVille branded item being available in the FarmVille marketplace, that will supposedly launch a specific quest for you in CityVille, but the users spotting this were very few in number, and the information has been unreliable at best.

Now, though, we have some very concrete details about this new quest, as you can actually activate it on your farm (or rather, in your city).

Upon entering CityVille (using the link above), you'll be greeted by the pop-up pictured at the top of this post. It tells entirely new CityVille players that you'll first need to complete the entire tutorial, along with naming your city in order to be eligible for the FarmVille quest. If you've never played CityVille, you'll earn a free item - the Farmgineers [pictured] - back in FarmVille for completing this quest, so it definitely is worth it.

First set of RewardVille items revealed

Where To Get The Items To Complete The CityVille Collections

I have already shared with you the complete list of CityVille collections, but many of you were still curious to find out where from can you get the items required to complete these collections. The nice folks over at the CityVille forums have created a really nice spreadsheet with the CityVille collections, the rewards you can get from trading them in and, most important, where to get the collectibles from.

So without further ado, here is where to get the items required to complete each CityVille collection (if the image is too small, you can click to enlarge it):
