FarmVille Could be Headed to iPhone, iPad and Android

FarmVille Could be Headed to iPhone, iPad and Android: "

Soon you’ll be able to play FarmVille on your mobile phone, not just your desktop web browser. Supported devices will probably include the iPhone, the iPad and Android smartphones, and some sort of text messaging-based play could be in the works too.

Speculation about this bubbled up when Tumblr blog Supererogatory discovered that the domain names farmvilleandroid.com, farmvilleipad.com, farmvilleiphone.com and farmvillesms.com were registered with DNStination Inc. DNStination is the third party that also holds farmville.com, the official website for Zynga’s very successful and popular online game.

We followed up with a spokesperson for Zynga, who said, “Zynga plans to expand to various mobile platforms. We cannot provide additional information at this time.”

That’s a confirmation that the company intends to offer mobile versions of the game, but those missing “additional details” include the platforms and the time frames. It’s also possible that some or all mobile versions could have only limited functionality compared to the Facebook and desktop web browser editions. We’ll have to wait to find out exactly how mobile virtual farming will work.

FarmVille has more than 80 million users, and it has achieved that primarily by becoming staple on Facebook. It’s so popular that non-players often search Google to find out how to block FarmVille updates from appearing in their news feeds.
