Play SimCity Web Game, Win $1,000
Not a big fan of Facebook-style web games? Well what if you could win $1,000 for playing one? Whether it's a clever marketing gimmick or good old-fashioned desperation, that's what EA is offering.
Interested gamers can check out the SimCity Deluxe website for a simple browser-based scavenger hunt that could net you a cool grand for playing. The contest is being held to celebrate the release of SimCity Deluxe for Mobile. We're guessing they mean mobile phones, and not those twirling things you hang above babies to hypnotize them so that they'll stop crying. In order to play the game you'll have to log in through Facebook, because the social networking site is pretty much the mafia of simplistic web games. Have fun, and remember: If you win the $1,000, you owe me a 10% finder's fee.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
