Nice console games 
IBM
has
won
its
2022
patent
infringement
lawsuit
against
Zynga.
IBM
convinced
a
Delaware
jury
that
mobile
developer
Zynga
infringed
its
web-based
communications
patents
with
its
hugely
successful
mobile
game,
Farmville,
as
well
as
several
spin-off
titles.
Other
games
accused
of
infringing
IBM’s
copyright
include
Crosswords
With
Friends,
CSR
Racing
2,
Empires
and
Puzzles,
Harry
Potter:
Puzzles
&
Spells,
Hit
It
Rich!,
Wizard
of
Oz
Slots,
as
well
as
Farmville
2,
Farmville
2:
Country
Escape,
Farmville
2:
Tropic
Escape,
and
Farmville
3.
Despite
denying
the
allegations,
Zynga
has
been
ordered
to
pay
$44.9m
in
damages.
Zynga
spokesperson
Alan
Lewis
told
Reuters
the
company
was
disappointed
with
the
verdict
but
expects
to
appeal.
Zynga
recently
pulled
out
of
its
web3
project
Sugartown,
and
sold
it
to
a
new
company
called
D20.
The
move
was
announced
by
the
latter
on
social
media
earlier
this
month,
saying
it
had
“acquired
all
products
and
assets
under
Sugartown
from
Zynga.”
