When you need a break from work or study, social media helps you forget yourself. Facebook in particular does a good job of helping you kill a few hours. It's not just used for socializing anymore. You can now use Facebook to buy things, look for jobs, or play games.
If you've ever played games on Facebook, you've probably encountered problems resetting your data and starting a new game. Since most games are hosted only on Facebook and have their own developers who maintain your game data, this process isn't as simple as it should be.
Learn how to manage your games, delete Facebook game data, and reinstall it to start over.
How to restart a game on Facebook
Almost every online game these days has the option to delete game data and start over from the settings . However, Facebook games are a little different. Most games will only show you game settings, such as turning sound on/off or the option to purchase additional game resources.
To restore your game to Facebook, you'll need to delete it and its associated Facebook game data, then add it back to account . Remove the game from your Facebook account
There are two ways to delete a game and all of your Facebook game data from your account. The most obvious route is through the Games section of the app.
1.Open Facebook on your computer.
2. From the menu on the left side of the window, select Games.
3. Select the Your Games tab.
4. Find the game you want to start and click the Settings icon.
5. Scroll down to the Remove This App section and click Remove.
6. You will receive a warning window with information about deleting your game and game data from Facebook. Here you can also choose to delete any posts, videos , or events that the game published to timeline .
Alternatively, you can do it through Facebook Settings.

Reinstall the game on Facebook
Now that you've removed the game from your account, Facebook should have deleted the game's data. Once you add the game back, you should be able to start over.
Type the game title into the Facebook search bar, go to the Find Games tab to find it, or visit the game's official Facebook page to find it. When you start playing the game, Facebook will automatically add it to your account. You can then find it in the My Games tab under the Games section.
Contact the game developer
If you deleted the game and then added it back to your Facebook account and found that your old game is still there, there are a few more things you can try.
Most games on Facebook have the ability to contact the game developers. You can send your questions via email, direct message, or by using the game's page on the network. Send a message to the developers and see if there is a way to delete your game data on Facebook and start over from scratch for the game you are playing.
Use a different Facebook
While the previous steps will generally help you delete your saved game, some games link your game data to your Facebook account. This means that simply deleting the game and adding it back later won't be enough to play the game from the beginning.
A simple solution here is to use a different Facebook account to play the game from the beginning. You can even create a separate account that you only play games from.
We hope all the above tips help you!
