    This might belong here. But I'm not sure.

    Anyway!

    [PokeCommunity.com] Facebook Games

    Do you play Facebook games at all? Do you play seriously or for killing time? Do you spend money on the games are do you play the hard way? What's your favorite game? What's your highest score in one?
     
    No I feel you, it's definitely annoying. What I find more foolish then playing them at all, is paying for them bonus stuff. Leveling up quicker, more farm bucks. It makes me think that all that money will be wasted when they make Farmville 3. Then where's all your money?
     
    I played the Plants vs Zombies facebook game for a while earlier this year. I REALLY enjoyed it and having never played a Facebook game before it, I was really impressed with the production quality of it. The gameplay was pretty good and the presentation was just excellent. However... social game. :( I was fine with the typical "waiting to recharge actions" (with microtransactions available if you wanted to speed it up) but when it restricted me from moving on in the game because I needed to invite other friends to play it? Yeah, I dropped it pretty quick. I didn't mind suggesting it to people I knew liked the PvZ series, but there was no way I was sending out a mass message to pester all my FB friends into playing it and I wasn't going to pay each time they restricted me that way, so I was done.

    No, i dont play them at all, i gave it a try and somehow some people managed to put some stupid rules in it that you cant do poop in the game...
     
    Nope, I don't play any of them and I never really did. After Farmvill kicked off, everyone and their mother decided to make something like it. It is just repetitive and I don't see the point in investing time to FB games. *Shrug*​
     
    I LOVED Pet Society, but it closed down in June. Siiigh. . .
    There was also Sims Social but it had a lot of glitches so it closed down too.
    I sometimes play It Girl just because I got to a really high level and the clothes are really cute. I don't like how it still shows people I had on my friends list in 2010, though, that's just. . . ick.
    I've tried to get into Party Town because it's similar to Pet Society but I don't think anything can replace Pet Society.
     
    While I don't really do Facebook games any more, I had a NASTY addiction to Tetris Battle, a game that allowed you to play Tetris against another person, or even 5 others at once.

    I've also dabbled in Jetpack Joyride + Candy Crush, although both games are prominently played on mobile devices. (Maybe not JJ... Regardless.)
     
    Playing Farmville 2 is kind of my dirty little secret. I just play it as something to kill time in the evenings and when I was at uni etc. Never have I put money into it and never will I!

    Although Zynga and Facebook had somewhat of a falling out, so this probably doesn't qualify anymore but hey, it used to be a Facebook game ;)
     
    Ooo another subject i can slate a little bit.
    I really cant understand the need to play these facebook games.
    Granted it's no different to playing something on a console or handheld system but really?
    The obsession, the requests.... The horror.
    My facebook gets absolutely massacred with game requests everyday!
    I'd day get a hobby but you know this is most peoples hobby =|
     
    I'm addicted to Candy Crush :( Otherwise I don't play any other games at all.
    I also play Candy Crush ever since I saw a funny pic with a basketball player on it and now i play rotary to beat my friends scores and i also play dragon city or social empires when i just want to kill some time and play a simple but fun game
