PopCap is perhaps best known for its Bejewelled and Peggle franchises, but Zuma is also very popular. The developer/publisher has now launched Zuma Web Connect, described as a "social" version of the puzzle game. Residing on PopCap.com, Zuma Web Connect wields the social networking power of Facebook and lets players compete against people on their friends list. This isn't PopCap's first Facebook venture: Bejewelled Blitz is a one minute, "social" version of the best-selling match-three game that also integrates with the site.
"While Bejeweled, Peggle and more recently Plants vs. Zombies get most of the attention, Zuma has quietly been an ongoing hit for us on all sorts of devices and in almost every corner of the world," says John Vechey, PopCap co-founder. "Zuma is enormously popular in Germany and Asia, for example, and is one of the highest-rated iPod games of all time."
