The promotion pairs the largest global social game developer with one of the largest consumer security communities in the world, enabling players of Zynga’s games to download a one-year, one-user license to AVG PC TuneUp for just $9.99, a third of the regular price.
The promotion should be welcome news to gamers, who tend to put a premium on the importance of a fully optimized PC. The week long promotion, which begins Feb. 24, will allow players of FarmVille to purchase a discounted license for AVG PC Tuneup which provides PC optimization, speed and performance.
In addition, they will receive a free bi-plane crop duster with instant growth, a unique in-game virtual item only available to AVG purchasers, enabling farmers to grow crops instantly. Gamers can access the special offer in either the FarmVille Marketplace, or by clicking a link in the FarmVille promo bar, which is present in the game at all times.
