Funium is a young startup company that developed Family Village. We have a dream that Family Village will become one of your favorite games on Facebook, leading you to an understanding and appreciation that we are all part of one great-connected family. This is just the beginning. More games and applications will be released, all designed to help families play, communicate and stay together.

Our first Funium game, Family Village, allows you to discover unknown ancestors and interesting facts about each one.

In Family Village, you’ll build out your actual family tree, and then immigrate those family members into a village you design. In your village, you assign your ancestors jobs to earn money for your town to grow. You can buy homes, cars, pets, and decorations from the time in which your ancestors lived. You can even buy monuments that show off your unique ancestral heritage.

As your village grows, Funium will be working behind the scenes to find family connections and interesting documents such as newspaper articles, yearbook photos, census records, marriage records, maps and many other interesting items that will allow you to know much more about your family. You will be able to save these documents in your library and share them with other friends and family as you wish.

Our vision at Funium is to build a place, or in our words, a “home” where families can go and play together, communicate with each other safely and easily, share information and family documents and store them for posterity so your family legacy is protected. Please check back as we will be adding many fun and family oriented features for years to come, developing our new “family home” page (to be released soon) a very cozy place to be.

Please tell your friends about “Family Village,” and have fun exploring!
