So you're a Facebook nut wasting time filling up your page with all your selfies, snooping around others' profiles and playing games.

Question on the last: do you even know where your favourite games rank?
 
Statista data shows that through May 2016, Candy Crush Saga is the most popular Facebook game with 10.91 million daily active users (yes, a lot of people are still playing Candy Crush), edging out Clash of Clans (10.59 million) and Candy Crush Soda Saga (10.18 million).
 
Rounding out the top 10 are Farm Heroes Saga (9.56 million), 8 Ball Pool (8.15 million), Criminal Case (5.04 million), Pet Rescue Saga (4.91 million), Hay Day (4.73 million), Words with Friends (4.23 million) and Cookie Jam (3.78 million).
 
Sounds like a tight race on top right?
 
However, when you look at it from a monthly active users point of view, it's basically Candy Crush Saga and the rest.
 
The Father Time-defying game is light-years ahead with 149.57 million, obliterating Candy Crush Soda Saga (38.78 million), Farm Heroes Saga (30.53 million), 8 Ball Pool (26.03 million), Clash of Clans (24.04 million), Criminal Case (22.2 million), Pet Rescue Saga (17.48 million),Subway Surfers (16.14 million), Dragon City (12.7 million) and Trivia Crack (10 million).
 
Crushing victory indeed - pun intended.
