About 2-3 years ago a friend of mine wrote a board game called Knowbody Knows. I was able to play a prototype of the game when it was being developed and knew right then that this game would be great. So, over Thanksgiving we had some friends over and we played this game again. Well, afterwards I thought that Knowbody Knows would be a great game to play on Facebook. So I called up my buddy who came up with the game and he gave me his approval. Well…a week later I was able to get it up on Facebook! Feel free to try the game here: http://apps.facebook.com/knowbodyknows/ and purchase the full board game here: Knowbody Knows Website.
I used the Facebook.NET apis and they worked great, so take a look at that library for developing Facebook apps.

Server Error in ‘/knowbodyknows’ Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a “web.config” configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its “mode” attribute set to “Off”.
Doh! Got an RTE running the app. Does it not work with Firefox?
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the “defaultRedirect” attribute of the application’s configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

Interesting. I just tried it in Firefox and it worked. I just released this about a day ago (its not even in the facebook app directory yet), so I’m still working through bugs and improvements, but the basic functionality should work. Send me an email if you still have problems.
