Facebook Games

[Holty07]

What games do you play on Facebook if any? A lot of the crap that gets sent to me is just that, crap. So I was wondering what some actual gamers out there are playing on Facebook? Some I've actually tried end up being OK for a few minutes then suck when I return the next day.

FaceBook games should be removed from that site. I can't even consider them real games, not even in the text based web game format. Most of my friends that "play" them are using automated bots to play for them so they can be proud doing all the stuff they never really did. I never understood how having a robot play a game for you can make a game fun.

I'd rather just stick with the Kingdom of Loathing for a browser game.

Every so often I play Vikings of Thule on it. Its only in Beta at the moment but its a nice little game if your bored.

I play bejewled a fair amount, i only do it because my girlfriend is insanely good at it and i want to beat her score.

I was kind of expecting this kind of response. I guess I'll just have to stick to the real games! Will check out Vikings of Thule though.

Mostly horrible. I tried Bejeweled once, it was horrible. I've seen the gameplay of Zynga's ones, and they're MUCH worse.

Reminds me of Worms... kind of.

Holy shit, I just tried that. It rocks.

I was wrong...

I play Bejeweled Blitz a lot, but its in college so I wouldn't count it as a good game

Facebook games are the root of all evil.

I got roped into Farmville for a short while. A very short while. I have a large volume of real games on both my home desktop and my laptop. Why the hell would I waste my time on a browser-based builder-type game when I can just play Port Royale 2 or SimCity 4? Or pick up my DS and play Harvest Moon if I'm really itching to satisfy some sort of farming jones?

To me, the best Facebook game is Texas Hold 'Em Poker, though it's mostly because it's actually a game. With fun. It's a shame that it's by Zynga, and thus comes with all the pushes for virality, but even that is toned down, so yeah. Not too bad.

Tetris "Friends", Wordscraper (or whatever they call Scrabble now), and Challenge Sudoku. That's about it. I did Mafia wars for something like 7 months and it became way too important because of the maintenance it requires. I finally ditched that, and it was both liberating and pathetic, how much freedom I felt ¬_¬

I've been playing facebook games for a year or so and I have lost all intrest in the games.. could some one give me a good starter - game for pc? (I don't know what to start with)

 

[jtr477]

Argh, this makes me think of my entire class freaking at me for not playing farmville.

And that's effing college.

My friend forced me to play Top Fish for a while.

I didn't really understand it.... You bought fish, waited several days, sold them, then bought more fish.

 

[Icecoldcynic]

I've never even tried any of the games on there. I have REAL games I can play, not glorified minigames.

I tried a vampire game that looked like it borrowed elements from The Masqerade series, but only for a day. I lost interest after that, and haven't been on Facebook in about half a year now.
