  • Narrative
  • Choices
  • Nostalgia

An interactive novel that mimics 2008-era Facebook: on Facenook you browse walls, photos and pokes while chatting with classmates in your final year of secondary school, picking one of three replies that your character types out on screen.

Why play it now

When you fancy a chat-based story for an afternoon: according to Kinglink, each playthrough takes about 4 hours.

Who it's for

For anyone who lived through the late-2000s chats and social networks and enjoys the nostalgia.

When not to pick it

If you're short on patience: messages arrive slowly and the best ending requires another playthrough.

What it offers

  • Story: 100 out of 100
  • Relaxing: 60 out of 100
