WestWars on Facebook: If FrontierVille and Mafia Wars had a baby...

Like many celebrities find themselves in strange mash-ups of names (Brangelina, anyone?) so do Facebook games, at times. This time, we're looking at FrontierWars--er, WestWars, my apologies. Developed by Hamburg, Germany-based Innogames, WestWars combines the best of FrontierVille's theme and Mafia Wars' gameplay. While the game's combat offers some depth, this style of button-click gameplay simply can't hang with games like the real FrontierVille or The Oregon Trail on Facebook. WestWars is one finely crafted, polished social game, but it's a few years too late.
