EA and Playfish have broken through a major barrier, becoming the second most popular game on Facebook. The Sims Social, a title specifically tailored for Facebook, has already racked up an astonishing 9.3 million daily active users. That figure puts the title ahead of Zynga’s venerable FarmVille.
According to data gleaned from App Data, the game has also been well received by many players. With over 90,000 posted reviews online, the game is hovering at a 4.0 out of 5.
EA has stated that the new title is one of several that are meant to help diversify EA into the social gaming atmosphere, specifically on Facebook.
