FishVille have just released a brand new buildable, and it's a super tasty looking Candy House! We're sure you're excited about this (because we are) and you're probably wondering exactly what you need to do to build it. Here is what you need to do to build your very own Candy House in FishVille!

If you don't yet have the base of a Candy House, you can either buy it for 1 Sand Dollar from the store, or you can ask someone to gift it to you. Once you have the first piece, simply place it in your aquarium. You'll see that it doesn't look like much yet, but once you start collecting a few of these you'll see it building before your very eyes! You now need to collect more Candy Houses from your friends - you need a total of 10 to build the house to full size. Click on the Candy House in your gift box, and then place it on top of your existing Candy House in your aquarium. You'll see the total number needed increment up by one each time you do this.

If you are impatient or don't have many friends to gift this to you, you can buy all the pieces you need from the store. It will cost you a total of 10 Sand Dollars to have this buildable, which is a fairly reasonable price since it is quite large and unique. Send Candy Houses to your friends, so they can build up their own and send you pieces as well!

Have you started your Candy House in FishVille yet?

Cafe World Spice Rack easier now than ever!

Posted: 25 Apr 2010 04:00 AM PDT

Have you been working hard to build your spice rack in Cafe World? When they released, we gave you the full guide on how to build your very own spice rack - so we're sure a lot of you have long completed this spicy treat for your cafe.

For those of you who haven't completed it yet, it's easier than ever to complete your spice rack! Previously, every person had a random two pieces needed to build the rack available to send to gifts. This made it difficult because not everyone had all the pieces they could send to friends. Cafe World has now changed this, and everyone can gift all pieces required to build the spice rack. It's a good thing too, because they also just told us that spice racks will start becoming even more important than they already are! Oooh, surprises!

Start requesting the pieces you need to complete your spice rack, because you don't want to miss out on the upcoming fun!

What other purposes do you think the Cafe World spice racks could serve?

Posted: 25 Apr 2010 03:00 AM PDT

What would we do if it wasn't for our favorite Facebook games reminding us of important holidays? PetVille has just released a big set of furniture and clothing honoring the special day when moms all over the globe are in the spotlight. Let's take a look at the list of items to buy your PetVille-playing mother!

Furniture:

Pink Teddy Bear Rug - 15,000 coins (requires 15 neighbors) or 15 Pet Cash
Pink Token-Operated Pool Table - 20,000 coins (requires 15 neighbors) or 20 Pet Cash

Mommy Dear Dress w/ Layered - 19 Pet Cash
Vintage Dorothy Coat w/ Layered (Blue) - 9,000 coins
Vintage Dorothy Coat w/ Layered (Pink) - 9,500 coins

We noticed that the majority of items this time are Pet Cash, and almost all of the coins items are less exciting. This is in stark contrast to their jungle themed items, which skewed heavily to being available for coins aside from a couple pieces. There are some versatile pieces here, though, that will look nice beyond Mother's Day.

Does your mom play Petville? Will you be buying these items as gifts, or for yourself?

Mafia Wars Paris Challenge Missions sneak peek

Posted: 25 Apr 2010 02:00 AM PDT

Grab those tourist maps and prepare to take your Mafia Family to the City of Light. That's right -- a sneak peek of Mafia Wars Paris snuck out over the weekend. From the looks of it, the first three missions in this city will unlock in a certain amount of time and it seems like there will only be a limited time to complete them all. Chapter 1 unlocks on Monday, April 26, Chapter 2 a week later and Chapter 3 three weeks later. Once each chapter is completed, players will earn some valuable rare items, which -- we presume -- will be the French Kiss, Fixer and DaVinci Q415 spotted in the game last week.
mafia wars paris challenge missions

To check out these upcoming missions, select Paris from the Travel menu in the top navigation. You will then receive a notification that Paris requires you to have ONE more mafia Members to play. You then have the option to invite another friend to join your mafia, or you can buy 10 extra mafiosos for 18 Reward Points. Once you have enough thugs for the job, the next goal is collecting Parisian maps. Maps can be collected every 24 hours from the Challenge Missions page or collected from jobs, fighting and robbing in other cities.

Since Mafia Wars Paris: Chapter 1 hasn't launched yet, we'll be waiting in the meantime, trying to collected as many Parisian maps as possible. One thing we can say about these challenge missions -- they're a godsend to high-level power players who've finished all of the available jobs and are just biding their time until Mafia Wars Vegas rolls out sometime this year.

What do you think of the new Mafia Wars Paris Challenge missions?
