The co-creator of Doom, Quake and Wolfenstein is putting his name on something a little friendlier, a Facebook app by the name of Ravenwood Fair. That's right, John Romero is asking you to suck it down, casually.

Romero is part of the team behind the recently launched Ravenwood Fair, VentureBeat reports, a new Facebook app that gives off FrontierVille vibes. The id Software co-founder, who has since gone on to try his hand at mobile games at Monkeystone Games and MMOs at Slipgate Ironworks, calls Facebook "an amazing platform."

Ravenwood Fair is published by LOLapps, one of the Facebook game makers recently named by the Wall Street Journal as a violator of the social network's privacy rules.
