Yummi Apps today released details about their upcoming Facebook/mobile game, Wizardia.
Chances are, you’ve likely used a check-in app at some point, like Foursquare, Gowalla, or SCVNGR—mobile games which allow the players to check in at various locations and complete challenges, and maybe even earn coupons. They’re also a way to keep track of one’s friends, geographically. Add to this the ability to claim territory, manage inventory and magic items, and interact with ‘altered reality’ locations and challenges—something familiar to players of Parallel Kingdoms—and the ability to manage a town with various economic buildings, and you’ve got a pretty good summary of Wizardia.
Will this be the social media game that finally captures the heart of the social media enthusiasts?
