I wonder what psychology majors would have to say about this? This herd mentality that seems to take over. I can feel it affecting me too, the feeling of being a part of something big.

Psyche major here, and to be honest, this is more of a socioligists field.

That said, I don't think it's that much different than Candy Crush or Minecraft.  See it on facebook > play to fit in > be social > repeat.  Part can be contributed to the app being ingenious in it's simplicity to welcome anyone to play; part nostalgia for the twenty/thirty-somethings.  But as vivister said,  it's mainly  peer pressure, as well as coveting.
