You can now challenge your friends to a game over Facebook Messenger
Can you beat my high score though, bro?
If you haven't heard already I'd be surprised, but it looks like Facebook has taken a leaf out on iOS 10's book by releasing their new Messenger games - Instant Games.
We all know that people can take forever to message back on Facebook (totally not me *hem hem*) so why not pass the time with a game or two?
It's not exactly like the iMessage games in that a lot of the games available are single player. You can then egg your friends/family on my rubbing your high score in their faces thus prompting them to accept the challenge and beat it.
So far the following games are available: Endless Lake, Hex FRVR, EverWing, 2020 Connect, Words with Friends, Brick Pop, Templar 2048, PAC-MAN, Zookeeper, Bust-A-Move Blitz, Wordalot Express, Shuffle Cats Mini, The Tribez: Puzzle Rush, Track & Field 100M, Space Invaders, Arkanoid, and Galaga. So it's a good mix of classic, interactive, and new(ish) games.
