We love Facebook’s mini games because they’re cool, really easy to understand, and engaging. The social media platform has a fairly good web-based platform and really powerful APIs that facilitate the creation of personalized applications. Most Facebook games are insanely addictive, but not because they’re super graphical; it’s the ability to connect with all your Facebook friends that makes them so interesting. In other words, Facebook supports multi-gaming with friends online, and therefore we must admit that there’s nothing more entertaining than playing free games on Facebook and expanding your friend list.

#1 Criminal Case

Criminal Case is a detective-themed Facebook game with over 10 million players. In 2013 it defeated Candy Crush Saga in the battle for “Facebook Game of the Year”. The gameplay is simple and addictive. Your job is to investigate crimes, find clues and lock down the bad guys. To break up the routine and give players the chance to have the best time while playing Criminal Case, the creators also added a few twists you’ll certainly enjoy. Why do we love it so much? Because it’s such an ingenious Facebook game.
