Play it if you…
Good fit- Mystery-adventure players who want investigation through social-media accounts
- Players interested in stories about online harassment and public reputations

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking combat, resource management, or conventional action systems may hit a wall because investigations and account activity drive the game.
- Players who need a tightly ordered mystery may find the open investigation structure too loose.
- Players uninterested in social-media themes may not connect with the setting or central conflict.
Our take on FAKEBOOK
Players who need a clearly signposted investigation may bounce when the open-world structure lets them pursue different accounts and requests. The follower-growth loop can also become a sticking point for anyone who does not want to write posts and build an audience alongside clue gathering.
What is FAKEBOOK?
Fakebook is a point-and-click mystery adventure set on a fictional social-media platform.
Players investigate profiles, timestamps, advertisements, and messages while responding to more than 30 requests from virtual accounts. The story follows a character seeking answers after their sister dies following online harassment and a defamation accusation involving a national idol. Players uncover personal stories, create posts, attract followers, and use their growing account to expose information. The game presents an open world of interconnected virtual users, with cameo appearances from real influencers represented as fictional personas. Its themes examine positive and negative aspects of contemporary social-media culture.
