FantasyBook

edit

FantasyBook develops fantasy sports games for the Facebook platform.

Launched in December 2007, FantasyBook received seed funding by Bay Partners as part of their AppFactory Program.

After the successful launch of fantasy baseball and fantasy football games on Facebook, FantasyBook was acquired by Citizen Sports in late 2008. FantasyBook’s social fantasy baseball, football, and soccer games went on to gain over 1M users. Citizen Sports was subsequently acquired by Yahoo! Sports.
