The social games market is still one of the newest and hottest areas of game development, but the market is maturing rapidly. As social games enter an era of less frantic change, what are the latest trends? What's hot and what's not? What should you expect to see in the coming year?

Join two of social gaming's grizzled veterans, Dave Rohrl (Creative Director at Playdom) and Steve Meretzky (VP of Game Design at Playdom) as they identify the leading trends in the industry, selecting examples of social games from the past year (both high profile and hidden gems) to illustrate those trends.
