The online game Farmville 2 on Facebook is now at the top of the chart for being the number 1 game played on the giant social media network.

According to the January Chart for the Top 25 Facebook Games by MAU from AppData.com, Farmville 2 is leading with 43,500,000 monthly active users (MAU). It was then followed by another game from Zynga, Texas Holdem Poker, having 33,900,000 MAU. Candy Crush Saga comes at the 3^rd spot with 23,500,000 players every month.

Zynga is currently focusing on transporting Farmville 2 to mobile devices so the players can choose to play on their PC and their smartphone devices without losing any game data they have saved. The developer of the online game, Farmville 2, is currently ironing out technical challenges presented by this undertaking.

Zynga's Chief Executive Mark Pincus stated, "The idea is to make that one seamless experience between Web and mobile so you can take your farming experience from work to home. We have to retool and reinvent around our process and technology."

As part of the promotion of the online game, the developer is holding a contest called the Recipe Creation Event in which one of the player's own recipes will have a chance to be featured in the Farmville 2 Crafting Kitchen. The winner will also win 300 Farm Bucks.

The mechanics of the competition is easy. Farmville 2 players only need to snap a photo of a sumptuous dish they have cooked, accompanied by its recipe and then simply email it to farm2events@zynga.com.

There will be three winning dishes for the event and judging will be based on presentation, originality and visual appeal. Winning meals will also get a special name recognizing the farmer/player who created it, and the dish will appear in the Crafting Kitchen. The event runs from May 30 to June 12 and winner will be announced on June 14.
