    Maybe Zynga have good games but when you start play Zynga games after certain level problems begin, constant technical issue – slow loading, slow moving items inside game, some items inside game don’t wont to work, lost connection in the middle of the game…… and lots of other or similar problems. That’s because they every little while put something new in the game (I understand why), graphics are too demanding for bad/weak servers/internet connection….. always but always some problems. I really liked Zynga games but after I try several games and in all games found the same/similar problems – I delete and blocked all Zynga games. If they don’t care – why should I be?
