No more Slingo for Zynga

News on 14 Aug 2013

A new decision by social gaming giant Zynga had the industry chattering Tuesday as news broke that the company is shuttering its branded version of the popular slot-bingo online game developed by Slingo after around eighteen months of operation under a Slingo licence.

With immediate effect Zynga Slingo has stopped signing on new players, and the company plans to withdraw its version of the game from Facebook towards the end of August, probably re-deploying its legions of fans (estimated conservatively at well over 3 million) to other entertainment sites like Zynga Poker.

Slingo was acquired by RealNetworks last months , which may have something to do with the decision to pull the Zynga game.
