Facebook is a great website when it comes to having fun. Sure, it’s a social media website, and having fun should be its number one purpose, right? Well, yes and no. Today, we are going to focus on the fun factor of Facebook and it’s gaming. Yes, you can play many games based on Facebook, and what’s great is that you don’t need a true gaming PC nor you need any special accounts, just a keyboard, and a mouse. So, on our top ten list, we are going to check which are the 10 best Facebook based games at the moment. Let’s get started.
1. Clash of Clans
At this moment, there isn’t a more popular Facebook game than Clash of Clans. You can play it from your PC or from a smartphone, which is a great way to always keep yourself updated. As its name says, the goal in the Clash of Clans is to build a clan and fight versus other players. You can also build your village, discover new characters, build various constructions and buy new items in this game. However, there are some microtransactions here and there, and although the game isn’t P2W (Pay to Win), you can still buy some important items with real money. The game works really well and its interesting concept will keep you playing it.
2. 8 Ball Pool
Well, how do we create this list without 8 Ball Pool? Although not being the most popular game at the moment, 8 Ball Pool is one of the best games on Facebook. It’s also the best billiards game you can play with numerous features such as buying cues, tables, colors, skins, leveling and earning rewards when spinning a wheel or scratching lucky cards. The community is great and matchmaking works well. For example, if you are 20th level, you’ll get paired versus someone with a similar level as you. If you like billiards, we strongly suggest that you try 8 Ball Pool.
3. FarmVille 2
I remember when I first played FarmVille a couple of years ago, and it was damn impressive game. FarmVille 2 follows the same principle, but it’s a much better game in terms of gameplay and graphics. The game plays from a top-down perspective, letting you build your own farm, harvest plants, raise animals and buy various items to progress through the game (with in-game cash or real cash). The core gameplay is simple, but this game can get really challenging once you build a big farm and that’s what’s probably going to keep you engaged.
4. Subway Surfers
Subway Surfers is one of the greatest game for smartphones, and now you can play it on Facebook… yikes! This endless runner is all about running and collecting coins on the way. You can choose various characters and use power-ups like Jetpack, Hoverboard or Coin Multiplier to get ahead of the policeman and his dog chasing you. As you progress through your run, the game speeds up a little bit, making it harder for you to evade moving trains and obstacles. Definitely great and challenging game.
5. Criminal Case
Criminal Case is a great adventure game in which you need to solve various cases. The game puts you in a role of a policeman from Grimsborough Police to help in solving cases of brutal murders. The core gameplay here is simple- you need to find hidden objects that may point in the direction of solving the case. Really not too much to say about this game, as you need to try it for yourself and see how good it is.
6. Candy Crush Saga
Candy Crush Saga is like Bejeweled (if you played it), but a little more advanced and more popular. The goal here is to match the candies to create three in a row or match four or more to get special candies. Candy Crush Saga gameplay is simple, and it’ll play until you run out of moves, but you’ll probably never run out of levels as there are over 1000 of them. The game looks great, controls are responsive and it’s completely free, which is the best of all. You can either play it on Facebook from your PC or download it for your smartphone; it’s really up to you.
7. Angry Birds 2
Again, the game that was one of the biggest games for smartphones; Angry Birds 2. The game is so popular because of interesting animations and great, cartoonish graphics. You’ll definitely need some skill and brain to play this one, as you need to shot your bird into the pigs that are scattered in the level. The environment is destructible, which means that you can destroy the construction on which pigs are located. Angry Birds 2 also has numerous types of birds that you can use to your advantage. Pretty interesting game.
8. Farm Heroes Saga
The developers of Candy Crush Saga are back with this new Farm Heroes Saga game. Again, this game follows the same principle as its brother, with a completely same gameplay where you need to match three or more identical Cropsies to get the points. The game plays until you are out of moves and don’t have more Cropsies to match. Pretty simple, yet amazing game.
9. Monster Legends
Monster Legends is a great game where you can challenge other players online and fight against each other. I like this game because there are lots of features like breeding and collecting monsters and leveling them as you progress through the game. The fights are turn-based, so you’ll need to wait for the opponent’s move, and opposite. The monsters in this game aren’t just a random monster, but some of them are well-known, as Cthulhu for example, which is my favorite.
10. Top Eleven Football Manager
Are you ready to prove the world that you are the ultimate football, manager? Well, if you are, Top Eleven Football Manager is just for you. Create your own team and play versus other players online to earn cash and improve your team. You are in charge of everything from the formation, player transfers, and play style. The game is free to play and will offer hours of fun; try it today!
