One of the most interesting things about Facebook is the games and same are one of the annoying ones as well. Yes, the game requests still exist and continue to bother users on droves. Good thing is that we have a quick guide to help you block Facebook game requests easily. Before that, let’s have a quick roundup of the Facebook games trend.
Facebook games come to be so powerful given their addictive nature. For instance, games like Candy Crush, Candy Crush Soda Saga, have been ruling over 10 million users worldwide over Facebook only. That’s a lot of people who play such games, but Facebook has more than 800 active users, and that’s really a lot of people who don’t like to play CCSS or other such time-killers.
There are a number of games that rope in new players through incentives to current layers. Just join your friend to play and you get credits or advance easily for next level. As a result…game requests. The only two responses to these games requests are either to grin and bear the annoyance or write a missive complaint about it and/or threatening to unfriend the offender.
Well, you don’t have to go after these as you can block Facebook game requests without any further ado. Complaints generally fall on deaf ears, and unfriending someone, while decisive, is still extreme unless you don’t give a damn. All in all, there’s a better solution and it has been around for a while – block Facebook game requests.
