Military strategy game takes Facebook by storm

SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Digital Chocolate, a leader in social games across growing platforms, today announced the launch of Army Attack™ on Facebook. Army Attack gives players the chance to create and command their own army on the leading social networking site.

“War-themed games are a huge market on other platforms, but we felt no one’s yet cracked the code for this genre on social networking sites,” said Marc Metis, President of Digital Chocolate. “With Army Attack, we’re bringing the first great military game to Facebook.”

Army Attack is from the makers of Facebook hits such as Zombie Lane™, Millionaire City™, and MMA Pro Fighter™.

Players lead their very own Resistance on Facebook. Army Attack challenges users to wage war against an evil empire that has taken over the land. Each player will need to build up his or her army by building guard towers, commanding infantries and tanks, calling in air strikes and much more. Players can unleash their fury against enemy troops, fighting to free the cities and villages of their homeland.

Created specifically to take full advantage of the social features on the platform, players can invite friends on Facebook to join the war as allies and wreak havoc on the enemy. Digital Chocolate will be implementing enhancements and upgrades for Army Attack in the coming weeks including more ways to interact with friends and new content for the game.

Army Attack will be available to play for free on Facebook by going to http://apps.facebook.com/armyattack. For more information about Digital Chocolate’s games, go to www.digitalchocolate.com/facebook-games.
