    if people care about their health as much as playing games we would be in a big winner.

    Zynga Inc. said yesterday it has expanded its portfolio of social games with the acquisition of start-up OMGPOP, maker of the popular Draw Something game.
    Financial terms weren't disclosed, however reports are already suggesting the amount may have been as high as $200 million.
    According to a statement from Zynga, OMGPOP's Draw Something had seen more than 35 million downloads in the six weeks since its introduction. It also said Draw Something is the No. 1 word game in 84 countries, citing data from Apple Inc.'s applications store.
    Zynga, the maker of popular Facebook games like FarmVille and Mafia Wars, said OMGPOP will remain based in New York.
    Zynga shares closed up 2.5 percent at $13.72 in recent trading. The stock is up by nearly half from its initial public offering price of $10 in December.
