Last week I sent out a tweet about the Top Facebook Applications website. I spent the last week going over the top 10 and seeing what the traditional games all have in common. There are only two traditional games in the top 10… Scrabulous & Texas HoldEm Poker. I find this interesting when you see that Funwall and Super Wall hold the number one and two spots, respectively, for daily active users. What do these two games have in common?
- They have a multi-player aspect to the game. These are games you can’t play by yourself
- Both games represent continuous innovation
- They maintain a high number of active users
- Requires players to strategies about their next move
- Both are turn based
There is only one other game within the top 20 for daily active users and that is Mob Wars. Even Mob Wars holds some of the traits that Scrabulous & Texas HoldEm Poker have. What are the other traits that make a game popular on Facebook?
