Facebook has named its game of the year (and it's not Farmville)

Facebook has crowned Clash Of Kings its 2015 Game of the Year. The free-to-play strategy game involves building cities, defending castles and conquering land to build a successful empire.

Clash Of Kings only debuted in August for the Android and iOS platforms but has quickly become the go-to game for many Facebook users.

To decide the winner, Facebook first looked at data into what its 1.55 billion monthly users were discussing the most and then analysed other factors like the game’s retention rate and the level of player engagement.

Elex launched the game on Facebook after a successful run in China hoping to reach a global audience – and it’s safe to say it worked. Clash Of Kings has now been in the top 10 highest grossing games in over 90 countries and downloaded over 70 million times.

Now let’s just hope we don’t start getting hundreds of those annoying invites to play like we do with Farmville.
