Caesary being taken off made me sad. I loved that game.

Starfighter: Disputed Galaxy and Zening are gone… Feel sad :’(

Caesary was taken down due to a copyright lawsuit. Starfighter relied on an external server and the costs were too much for the dev to maintain. Zening probably had a similar issue with cost due to low player activity.

I remember seeing an explanation for Battalion: Arena, but don’t recall exactly what it was.

I added approximate dates of death and links to related topics

Originally posted by trickyrodent:

The developer (Urban Squall) got acquired by Zynga a couple years back, and so hasn’t been doing updates or maintenance of any kind. To be honest, it’s kind of a miracle that our devs have been able to keep it running as long as they did— but we’re not able to fix it this time.

And thanks for the overview, Evil_Igor :)

Backyard Monsters will join the list very soon, it will be taken down in less than a month.

Little Cave Hero

Caesary game is my lover but…

Now Backyard Monsters will also be removed

Zening was pretty fun

SF:DG needed to go as it was beyond repair as MP was removed due to the hackings and such. Lets just look forward to SF:I. :D

Thanks for the information

- Added Little Cave Hero and Backyard Monsters

I added some more info and images
