As per the announcement in news, Livejournal Games are history as of today:

Games Discontinued
We resisted writing “game over for games on LiveJournal,” but yes, on April 9, the Games tab will disappear from the LiveJournal navigation bar, and games – including Sim Hospital, Airport and City Gangs – will no longer be available to play.

It was only a bit more than a year ago that these were introduced. I'm curious, did anyone ever actually play one?

Ah, that's a pity — mmm, you're the first user I know who actually played any of these for real.

Well, the farm one looked very similiar to a game on facebook and since I don't use facebook, it was new to me and a lot of fun. For most people, they were probably over it. I was really into it for awhile and would keep track of when my animals were laying eggs and my factories were producing products so I could get back on the computer at certain times to move everything to the next level. I do agree that it seemed like every few weeks it would get buggy and I wouldn't be able to get in for a few days. Otherwise, I was having a pretty good time. It was supposed the be the sort of game where you interact with other people's farms and since I didn't know anyone else playing, I just played alone which held me back on some of the challenges. I'll miss it anyway.
