On Facebook, many people are either talking about Farmville, Angry Birds, and other games. Add The Hunger Games Adventures to that list.

According to CinemaBlend and The Huffington Post, “The Hunger Games” author and the film’s producers collaborated on creating the game for Facebook, which features Farmville-esque play. In the game, users play as themselves, but receive missions from Peeta and Katniss.

Go to The Huffington Post to see some exclusive looks at the game.

“The Hunger Games” stars Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, a girl who must defend herself in the barbaric Hunger Games, held in the Capitol of Panem:

“Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. A twisted punishment for a past uprising and an ongoing government intimidation tactic, The Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains.
Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.”
