My Kingdom Rises, Falls on This Week’s List of Emerging Facebook Apps

Two apps on this week’s AppData list of emerging Facebook games pulled in over 800,000 new monthly active users — an impressive feat, since our emerging game cutoff is a total of a million MAU. Both My Kingdom and Social Fun are new to Facebook, and growing fast.

Unfortunately, My Kingdom may not survive its success. Although the app was operative on Thursday, it now redirects to Facebook’s home page, which suggests that the new Happy Elements title may have been suspended.

Social Fun has a vague name, but the Spanish-language quiz app is not particularly unusual. It’s followed by dtac one D.I.Y., an app by a Thai mobile carrier that allows users to create their own avatar. And rounding out the foreign-language apps at the top, لعبة الحقيقة is another standard offering, a friend quiz for the Arabic-speaking audience.

At number five, Sim Hospital the top-ranking game on this week’s list; it puts players in control of a fledgling hospital, with extra points earned for correct diagnoses. We’re covering the other games this morning at Inside Social Games.

Skipping down, ๑۩۞۩๑ HAPPY HALLOWEEN ! ๑۩۞۩๑ is the first themed app for the holiday we’ve seen do well this season — perhaps a sign that such apps aren’t as popular as they once were. We’ll find out whether that’s really true as the holiday season starts.
