- YoVille: "YoVille is a world where you can buy new clothes for your player, purchase items for your apartment, go to work, and meet new friends. Join YoVille today for free!"--This application combines chatting with your friends with a game you play. I played for a bit, but it didn't seem all that interesting to me. Evidently, it is very popular with people on Facebook because it's on Page 1 of Facebook's "Featured" applications.
- Lucky Strike Bowling: "The classiest bowling experience around is now available right here on Facebook. Bowl against up to 25 of your friends and earn credits to spend in the pro shop. Can't get together with friends tonight? Hang out online at Lucky Strike Lanes!"--Like YoVille above, you can play with your friends in this game. If you love bowling, this is probably an application to avoid because it can get addicting. This is #2 on Page 1 of Facebook's "Featured" applications.
- Bejeweled Blitz: "Play this special version of the classic gem-swapping puzzler created just for Facebook. Try out the new multiplier gems and speed bonuses. Compete against friends for bragging rights. Cooperate with friends for the chance to win prizes!"--This game is much like the Bejeweled game of Pogo and other places. You swap pieces to make a chain of three, and you gain points. Games like these are extremely addicting, and Facebook's Bejeweled makes it even more addicting by allowing you to compete with your friends and win prizes.
- Word Challenge: "Word Challenge is the addictive word game that puts your vocabulary to test! Unscramble 40,000+ words, 20 vocabulary types, and even battle your friends for lexicon superiority!"--For those of us that love word games, this game can make us lose concentration on the important things to do really quick!
- Pet Society: "In the world of Pet Society, you and your pet can have a great time! Go shopping, play games, compete in races against your friends' pets, and enjoy many fun activities together. Style your pet, decorate your house, and buy gifts for your friends' pet!"--I personally play this game, and it is very fun, very cute, and you can play with friends. It's addicting as you struggle to decorate your pet's home with the best furniture and level up. There's a lot of award to win too that you can put up on shelves around your pet's home.
