San Francisco, California – 8/25/2011 G5 Entertainment, known for its best-selling iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac and PC casual games like Supermarket Mania, Mahjong Artifacts and Virtual City, today has released the new social city building game for iPad, Virtual City Playground.

When Virtual City launched one year ago, it became an instant hit on iPhone and iPad. Since then, anticipation has been steadily growing for the next installment in this beloved city-builder game. The wait is over! Starting today, the social free-to-play version of this runaway hit is available on iPad as a free download. The iPhone version will hit the App Store this fall.

More information about the game:

Extra content in the game includes: 10 exclusive landmarks: Acropolis, Big Ben, Coliseum, Eiffel Tower, Empire State Building, Tower of Pisa, Saint Basil’s Cathedral, Statue of Liberty, Sydney Opera, and the Taj Mahal. 68 unique decorations to help players create the most enviable place in the world.
