Twitter-based game from iList — Spymaster

Gross. The S/N ratio on twitter was already on the decline, crap like this is going to make the problem even worse. I deleted my account about a month ago and haven't looked back.

Everyone knew that the next thing to hit twitter would be games. There is already several of them out there that focus mainly on trivia, which makes sense and could be used as an excellent marketing tool. What scares me is that this is listed as a "social" game, and in looking at the FAQ (http://playspymaster.com/faq) it is clear that this is Mafia Wars for Twitter.

Whats really funny is the question about people with a "Director" level title who are apparently developers or close friends of the game. The answer contains this:

"Directors are playing characters of Spymaster just like you — however, be advised that plotting assassinations against directors may have dire consequences."

But to be honest I made a twitter game a while ago with a friend just to mess with the twitter api, its called BattleBird: http://battlebird.com/

Is this just gonna be Mafia Wars, etc, on Twitter? Waiting to see, but I do hope not...
