Back on Sunday, Restaurant City was willing to give away a free band member, Lenny the Singer (a sea snail that costs 12,000 Coins it the store) from their current Under the Sea theme set.
But twenty-four hours to vote wasn't enough for fans to make it to the 125,000 'Like' votes required, so Playfish couldn't give out Lenny. In compensation, Playfish has decided to award everyone with 3,000 Coins instead!
Just log into Facebook, make sure you're a fan on the official Restaurant City Facebook fanpage, and click here. Do note that clicking the link will launch the game. But you only need the game on for a few seconds for this deal to work. Just make sure you click within the next 7 hours, cause it's another 24-hour only offer!

Hotel City goes transnational with second flags set
Hotel City Bellboy Playfish Hotel 2
Hotel City Larch, Pine, Tulip, BushIn under a week, Hotel City's unfurled new flags from 28 countries, including three special ones for players with less geopolitical attachments -- Hotel City flag, Playfish flag, and Pirate flag.
Counting the June 3rd set, there are now 44 country flags ready to represent players, though we really doubt there are any from North Korea spending time on Facebook games. But this year's FIFA World Cup does have a North Korean team, and that's where all the games are taking their cues for these flag sets.
Along with these new flags are four new pieces of outdoors decor, which the game refers to as "Ground Decorations" -- Larch tree (2 PFC), Pine tree (2 PFC), Tulip bed (5,000 Coins), and Bush tree (7,000 Coins). If you look at (image above) the new design of the Bellboy Playfish Hotel, you can see that these items are no longer limited to the ground. You can decorate the roofs of rooms as well!
All the flags cost 10 Playfish Cash each. PFC are sold in sets, where the more you buy, the more you'll save. At the smallest set, you can get 25 PFC for $5 USD. To find the new flags and decor, click on the "Build" hammer icon, and look at the two new tabs on the bottom.
Here's a full visual of the new flags. And on a side note, the game has finally fixed the spelling for Philippines.

Happy Island gets into the game with World Cup Series set
Happy Island World Cup Series
Happy Island Special Offer Soccer iconPlayers who log into into Happy Island and click on the "Special Offer" soccer ball on the left side of the game window will see the new World Cup 2010 decor.
This World Cup Series attractions and decor set involves flags for 24 countries, an animated pitch that comes complete with goalies playing amongst themselves, and a virtual replica of the World Cup trophy.
The Neighborhood Pitch attraction costs 99 Facebook Credits (roughly $10 USD), and earns 2,300 Coins. If it's anything like the other attractions, there should be an option to upgrade the pitch into something much larger and better-looking, such as a full stadium. The World Cup trophy costs 15,000 Coins and is purely decorative, while the world flags are 15 FB Credits (roughly $1.50 USD) each.

Cafe World: Earn 6 Free Cafe Cash in 3 New Promo Surveys
Cafe World Pretty Little Liars, Windows Phone, and Windows 7
Feel like getting some free premium money in Cafe World? Then log into Facebook and head over to the Earn Café Cash tab for the 3 new deals under "Free activities". Each offer will dish out 2 free Cafe Cash for a total of 6 CC.
Keep reading to get a full walk-through before you try each one.
Pretty Little Liars Lie Detector
Offer #1 is from ABC promoting the premiere of their new show, "Pretty Little Liars". Just submitting two short sentences into the designated "Truth" and "Lie" boxes are all you need to earn you the cash. I typed "I hate ikura" into the Lie Box, and "I love ikura" into the Truth Box. After that, the sponsor wants you to install the Pretty Little Lie Detector app, "where your statements are waiting to be sent to your friends!" So install the app if you want (you DON'T have to! for the free Cafe Cash), but seeing that other people are going to see what you've typed if they use the app, be careful what you say.
Cafe World Windows Phone 7
Offer #2 is for Microsoft's Windows Phone 7. You get a little multiple choice question asking you which of the 3 features of the phone you're most looking forward to. Answer however you want, then click "Share" to submit your answer. And that's it -- 2 instant free Cafe Cash!
Cafe World Windows 7 features
Offer #3 is also from Microsoft, but this time, it's asking about which of their Windows 7 features you'd like best. To do that, you're going to have to watch some videos, but each one's only 7 seconds long! So pick whatever looks interesting and make your choice. I watched a bunch of the vids, but voted for "Home Group". And BAM! -- that's the last batch of 2 free Cafe Cash for me!
Now here's the most important question: how do you know any of these work? Well, SocialVibe, the company that's helping bridge these offers with Cafe World, has a feature that let's you see what offers you've completed and when you did them (see image below). You can access it by clicking the "Missing Cafe Cash" button which is on the same page as the Earn Café Cash tab.

Two-fer Tuesday: Chocolatier Sweet Society and My Vineyard
Tired of harvesting and planting crops in FarmVille? Washing and feeding your pet in Pet Society? If you're looking for something new to play on Facebook, stop by the Games.com blog for Two-fer Tuesdays. Every week, we'll be recommending two new Facebook games that, ya know, aren't FarmVille.
This week's Two-fer highlights two games that have been flying under the radar, but include a certain something that might appeal to the FarmVille set -- chocolate and wine. The first is My Vineyard from Metaplace -- a sort of well-heeled FarmVille -- where you grow grapes and then turn them into wine. The second game is Chocolatier: Sweet Society where instead of wine, you make and sell chocolate in your very own chocolate shop. We're getting hungry just thinking about it. Chocolatier Sweet Society
Chocolatier Sweet Society
This Facebook game, based on a PC downloadable game with the same name, puts you at the helm of your very own high-end chocolate shop. In the game, you have to make chocolate in the factory and then, upon completion, sell the sweet stuff for coins which can be used for upgrades. Different types of chocolate takes different amounts of time to make, so you'll need to think strategically to make sure your inventory stays stocked and customers stay happy.
Pros: The game looks good, and overall, has high production values that you don't necessarily see in other Facebook games. Even though this game bears some similarities to other cooking games on Facebook, it also requires more time management to make your shop successful.
Cons: Outside of making chocolate and sending gifts, there's not all that much else to do in this game. Oh yeah, and the biggest negative of this game -- it makes you crave chocolate every time you play.

My Vineyard
my vineyard
If you've ever fantasized about making your own wine, you can put your inner oenophile to the test by running your own virtual vineyard. Start by planting different varieties of grapes, juicing them (by stepping on them 'I Love Lucy'-style) and then aging them in the barrel of your choosing. You can sell your wine right away, or let it age and sell for more coins. Your vineyard can also be decked out with houses and other decor -- some buildings require your friends to pitch in and help.
Pros: One of the better-looking Facebook games with a relaxing soundtrack. There's also plenty of side activities to keep you occupied, like building houses, collecting truffles. Plus, it's about wine -- who doesn't like that?
Cons: If you're really tired of growing and harvesting crops, this game is centered on that basic concept. My Vineyard also has about 800K players according to AppData, which is a pretty decent number, but you still might be hard-pressed finding neighbors without straying outside your existing Facebook friend circle.

Mafia Wars Must-Play Weekend: 2x Fight Loot + 2x Job Mastery
As part of Mafia Wars' Must-Play Weekend, mafiosos looking to get a leg up can now earn double the Fight Loot and Job Mastery for the next two days. Might not sound like much, but I'm finding the extra job mastery extremely helpful with the new Mafia Wars South Africa Challenge Mission.

FrontierVille Fourth of July Goal (Part 1) - Craft Five Fireworks
For the Fourth of July, FrontierVille rolled out a special four-part mission, and let's just say you'll probably eat up plenty of time this holiday weekend trying to get these done. Part 1 of this mission asks that you Craft Five Fireworks and this might be the most difficult of the four to complete.

To craft fireworks, you'll need a cabin, 1 saltpeter and five fires. The saltpeter can be acquired by completing the new Manure Collection, which consists of five distinct types of poo that you collect from different animals. For a refresher: here are the five types of poo and which animals you can collect them from.

Piggy Poop (harvested from pigs)
Brush Brownie (harvested from sheep, goats)

Meadow Muffin (harvested from cows, oxen)
Read more on the FronterVille Manure Collection.
Once the collection is complete, turn it in and you'll be rewarded with a saltpeter. So now you have part of what you need to make the fireworks. The other thing you'll need is fire -- five fires to be exact. You can create fire by going inside the Wagon and combining 7 wood (get from chopping trees) and 5 cloth (get by visiting neighbors).
