Treasure Isle Dragons will take you to lands that are Timeless in China

A new feature appeared in Treasure Isle this weekend that continues the exotic Asian Isles map sets, the Dragon. You heard that right, not the Dragon Sailboat. Zynga decided to quit beating around the bush and give us treasure hunters what we really want: to ride on our very own fierce, majestic dragon.

It's too bad when you find the magical lizard he's sickly and pathetic (since when do dragons get sick?). Fortunately, nursing the little baby back to health will open up a whole new map for you to explore called Timeless in China, which holds eight new islands to find shinies in. Finding the dragon currently seems like a random occurrence, but once you do find him, throw him in the good old backpack and take him to your Home Island. It's there that you can click on the legged, sickly snake to ask six of your friends to help bring him back to good health, though one new friend will automatically come by each day to help if your friends are slowpokes.

You can also pay up 30 Island Cash, or about $5 USD, to bring him into his own instantly Seriously, even if you don't have six friends, it's only six days. We think you can wait. Once fully healed, the dragon is what you'll need to access the Timeless in China maps. Good luck finding the dragon and exploring the Timeless in China maps. Just don't get lost in there, because unlike in Hollywood wushu flicks where that's cool and exciting we call that addiction. And that's just no fun.

March Madness Facebook Game Showdown: Final Four

Upsets galore in the second round of our March Madness Facebook Game Showdown, just like in the real NCAA Basketball tournament.

In our quest to determine the best Facebook game, most of our match-ups have been cruising along without any major upsets. No longer! In the second round of our Showdown, things went haywire with several favorites finding themselves on the outs, including three of Zynga's most popular games.
Pet Society by Playfish continued its unlikely run as its fans backed it all the way through to the Final Four. Pet Society defeated Zynga Poker 57% to 43% in a close match-up. Pet Society has now defeated two higher seeded Zynga produced opponents in Cafe World and Zynga Poker.

In what is likely the biggest upset this side of VCU over Kansas, Treasure Isle defeated the heavily favored FarmVille. The two Zynga made games went head to head and in unbelievable turn of events, Treasure Isle squeaked by FarmVille 52% to 48%. Unreal, considering how much Games.com -- The Blog! readers favor FarmVille over all else.

The last in our upset trifecta is the defeat of staff favorite FrontierVille by Pop Cap's plucky arcade classic Bejeweled Blitz. In what has to be the triumph of the name brand, Bejeweled over the newer FrontierVille, Bejeweled Blitz won 54% to 45%.

Rounding out our final match up of the second round and last Final Four participant CityVille, the number one seed in the tournament defeated Mafia Wars. CityVille is the only top seeded game to advance to the Final Four trounced Mafia Wars handily 66% to 33%

Here the Final Four match-ups for the March Madness Facebook Game Showdown:
