Things That You Can Do If Deleting Facebook Data Method Does Not Work for You

Contact the Developer

If you still see your old game when you play the game, then you can contact its developer using their contact link on Facebook to ask them to help in deleting your game. But don’t get impatient if you don’t get a reply instantly because developers are very busy people, and they might not be able to reply to your query instantly. So, wait for at least 24 hours before you send them a message again on Facebook.

Create a New Facebook ID

If the above method doesn’t work, then it means that the game data is permanently linked to your account, and you can’t remove it. So, the next logical thing that you can do is create a new account on Facebook and add your game to that account and start playing it from the beginning.
