Location Based Social Game: MyTown for the iPhone

Sunday, February 28th, 2010 – running time 04:29
MyTown has attracted over a million users since its launch - seemingly under the noses of existing location-based games. Could it be the next big thing?

Segments

Billing itself as the "most popular location-based social game ever", MyTown has attracted an impressive number of users. Like existing location-based games, MyTown encourages you to check-in at your favorite local businesses to earn points. However, MyTown more resembles a virtual game of Monopoly than either of its major competitors. It's robust, engaging and most importantly free, so we recommend downloading MyTown.
