well I'm pretty sure that some facebook games already have alternatives
and some emulator sites I use have some thing called NeptunJS. The article also made it clear that the farmville spinoffs aren't going anywhere. Sad to see it go through even though I haven't played Farmville in years. Zynga isn't the powerhouse it used to be, it all changed when a little game called Candy Crush came along
I would be more devastated if Criminal Case was effected though (but man is that game ever ongoing)
