EA-Playfish Shuts Down Quiztastic Facebook Game

Playfish’s Quiztastic game may be the first failed Playfish game, as it recently was shut down with no warning to gamers. The game had never broken the 500,000 monthly active users mark, and despite a strong premise and some of the best production values on Facebook, the game was ultimately unsuccessful.

Quiztastic was released in early 2009 and had a ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire’ feel. The graphics and sounds made the player feel like they were in the midst of a game show, and the quizzes available tapped on a user’s ability to answer general knowledge questions.
